Well it's a good price for a Sandisk

On sale at RCSS (http://www.superstore.ca/)
Sandisk 8GB SDHC Class 2 - $17.49
Model SDSDB-8192-C11 (http://www.sandisk.com/products/imaging/sandisk-standard-sd-and-sdhc.aspx?tab=additionalInfo)

Says almost $40 on the shelf price tag, maybe a price error because the USB keys were priced at $17.49 :?:

I await the 'this card is faster/cheaper here/there' comments :lol:

Not a bad deal for RCSS though :)

the price is ok if you don't mind the slow write speeds (class 2 sdhc = ~2 mb/s)

I would highly recommend Patriot 8GB MicroSD over this card. Its rating is class 6 and I was getting around 9 MB/s write speed.

Price is $19.99 (cash price) and comes with miniSD and SD adapter.

Shipping kills this deal: unless you live close to a CC store where you can pick it up.

When I visit the link, it says that it is a Class 4 card. Is this the card that you actually bought and tested the speed on?

I went to the Superstore in newmarket,tags were up with the
$17.49 price tag on it.
Best buy has this exact same one for $60, went to BB and price matched.

Thanks OP!

I think that's an error in CC's website. I've personally never heard of "Class 10", just 2/4/6.

If you google the part number, the product picture and specs come up Class 6.

Class 10 is fastest speed rating now!
