It's only for a car stereo so class 4 is fine. Faster is obviously preferable as I can use elsewhere.
These are reasonably cheap according to PriceSpy but don't want to pay an extra $10 + for postage on an item that cheap and small.

Looking to pay $10 - $15 depending on speed.

Thanks.

Asmodeus: $16 delivered low enough?

Thanks but it is a bit, when he's only asking for $10.50 for the card.  He's clearly trying to make money on postage. $6.25 even for non-signature.  I either want to collect or just pay for a stamp and an envelope.

Also it was for class 4, so $10 was what I was wanting to pay but not an additional 60% for posting.

Not urgent, I'll keep looking.

Cheers though.

You'll be hard pushed to find one with a delivery charge of less than $5.50 which is the min courier fee. I also don't like to pay that for something that is so small but unless you find someone selling a second hand one shipped in a paper envelope, that's the deal.

Had a quick look at pricespy and nothing at a walk in store for less than the above

So, it's second hand or $16 :)

oh I was actually after a second hand one.
Maybe from someone who has replaced a class 4 with a class 10 or for a larger one.
Will check ebay tomorrow as I can usually get free shipping on small stuff like that.

Here's a brand new one for ya:
http://www.tinydeal.com/oscoo-16gb-high-capacity-micro-sd-card-black-p-59422.html

US$10.46 even at a crappy PayPal FX rate of let's say 0.78 still falls within your $15 budget.




Sometimes I use big words I don't always fully understand in an effort to make myself sound more photosynthesis.

Cheers for that, is that a site you use and can endorse? 

Anyone familiar with the brand at all?

Yep, I've found Tinydeal to be pretty quick and efficient, goods are normally here within 7-10 days of ordering.

Can't speak for the quality of the product above though.  I have in the past bought Kingston and Sandisk SD cards of them.  Not sure if there is any way of telling for sure if they're the real thing but capacity and performance of these was as stated.
