XD memory cards for digi cameras & laptops (£2.89)

I found these memory cards from a seller on Amazon having a final clearance at a very good price, £2.89 plus p&p. They are 64mb but you can still get loads of stuff on them.

Search https://www.amazon.co.uk for:

Olympus 64MB XD Picture Card inc Panorama function

    Not a bad price for the card but £4.50 delivery!

    Total price for one comes to £7.39.

    Not really worth it when you consider the price of a 1GB one and that newer digital cameras store 3-4MB/pic.

    Got to agree with the above. Had a 256mb card for my camera (3.5mb per photo), I take several pictures of the same thing then choose which to keep when I upload them to my PC. When my son was born the 256 was replaced by a 1GB card.

    Excluding postage the 64mb card is 4.5p per Mb the 1Gb is 0.8p per Mb!

    Newbie + One post + AmazonMarketplace = SPAM methinks!

    Apologies if not, but very suspect?
    All the World is a Stage; and I'm going through a difficult one at the moment!

    Must agree, and 64Meg is soooo small these days, even for Xd cards

    A lot less money for a lot more memory, try other web only shops. I have been mentioning one in particular recently quite a lot and will not mention it here for fear of accusations of self promotion, even though the ONLY links i have with them is I buy from them.
