eBay sellers in the United States, need to do their homework, research flash memory prices. Most honest American sellers gave up long ago. It was impossible to offer true capacity at low low prices. They charged fair prices with a very small profit margin. Being over looked by eBay members stampeding to the orient for the cheap prices, some had to sell below cost just to move their remaining inventory. The few who remain are careful with their suppliers and charge realistic prices.
