thats the class4 this deal is for a class 10


there's a discussion forum about how livingmerchants is sketch on deal getters found here http://www.dealgetters.com/discussio...VjZmZlZjdjYWQ0

dealgetters admin says they'll back any purchases made through them though...

Hi Brandon

Registration issue has been fixed. You can register now. Yes, Living Merchants is a new domain and they are working on improving the website. But, as far as we know the products sold are good quality and prices are extremely competitive. As you are buying them from DealGetters, we ensure your satisfaction. For any reason if DealGetters customers are not happy with the products or services, whether the product is from Phillips or LivingMerchants we replace it for free

Thanks for using DealGetters

Thanks for using DealGetters

Admin Dealgetters commented 30 Nov 2011 04:13 pm


I've never heard of dealgetters either though rofl oh well ill give it a shot




people are concerned that these are just chinese fake kingstons and they're asking dealgetters if living merchants is an authorized dealer this is their response

Quote:
Hi Brandon

Appreciate your inputs, Living Merchants is not an authorized kingston reseller. They bring the SD CARDS from Hongkong and as far as the validation is concerned, we will get back to you in a few hours.

Thanks for using DealGetters

Yes if in the worst case scenario if this product turns out to be a faulty one we will issue refund.

The card might be real and legit, but I suspect it might be the class 4 version.

Cheapest price for a Kingston 32gb SDHC10 in Hong Kong is $620.
Appx. $82 cad.

Cheapest price for a Kingston 32gb SDHC4 in Hong Kong is $290.
Appx. $38 cad.


Paying $26 for a $38 product seems to of a "deal" to me....while the
other one is too good to be true.

I once went for a similar deal on ebay for an sd card. Never got the item and the buyer closed their ebay account shortly after. I eventually got the money back through filing a complaint with paypal.

LOL. The cards are fake. Dealgetters and Living Merchants received their stock from HK and noticed they were crap. They're issuing refunds along with a $5 credit with dealgetters for the inconvenience.

Would you buy a real ferrari or a fiero with a fibreglass shell?

Same thing here. What you see on the outside may not be what you get on the inside.

Really? That's weird. Here's the email I got:

from: DealGetters info@dealgetters.com via auth.ccsend.com

Refunding SD Card - $26 for a 32 GB Kingston Class 10 Micro SD Memory Card

Dear SmartGetters,

Just like you, we are equally excited for the festive weeks ahead and want to make sure we take good care of our customers’ interests.

As the SD Cards what we have received are no way closer to the samples what we were given initially, we both (DealGetters and Living Merchants) feel bad to convey that we are not happy with the product we have received from HONGKONG suppliers and decided to refund your money in next 48 - 72 hours and also depositing $5 DealMiles to your DealGetters account as a token of appreciation in understanding this situation


If you have any questions you can email us at vijay@DealGetters.com or info@livingmerchants.com

Thank You & Happy Holidays

Vijay Karumanchi
MD & CEO DealGetters.com

I remember buying some fake Sandisk 2gb and 4gb SD cards in Shenzhen that was way too good of a good deal because 4gb SD cards had just come out and were $60-80 retail in 2005. Bought them for 150-200HKD. At the store they would check the cards and it would read the proper size. when I got back here and put it in my PC to format it. it had less than 26mb and didn't work.
