Been waiting for the price to drop from 200+ and saw this today on amazon, I ordered one for my Tab Pro 8.4. I think this is fairly hot as it was near 200 the other day and with free shipping 120 is pretty damn good IMO.

If this is average price LMK and I will KO this thread.

This looks like it is shipped and sold by Amazon, so it might be legit, but there are a lot of reports these being reformatted for a much higher capacity than they really are and sold as such.

The reviews seem good. Just a warning.

I got mine legit from Amazon back in March. Once the initial stock sold out, pretty crazy how the price skyrocketed!

No, those are the cheap Chinese cards. This is not cheap, it's name brand, and it has a 4.5 star rating.

Well you asked if hot or warm. There are two ways to look at it: SanDisk (right now) is the only name-brand manufactor for 128GB and these were selling for 8 or 9 more a few weeks ago; so 8% off is a 'deal'. Then again the 64GB cards can be found on sale for under $40 these days (I think lowest I've seen is 36 or 37) so in that regards perhaps it is not the best deal. This card was $35.99 on may 5th (it is 64GB 40Mb/s card):

So if you need 128GB on a single card today then yea I guess it is less expensive than other advertised prices.

I think the deal isn't so much the price as much as that they are actually in stock at the moment. That hasn't been the case for some time.

Yeah, exatcly i was thinking the same. 8% on these cards aint a hot deal but still not to bad if someone needs them. but for sure i think it's legit.
Newegg is the same now
