[Edit1] If you are already shaking your head this post is not meant for you. Downvote if you wish, especially if my post is not clear, missing important information or misleading. This is for tech savvy people with a bit of spare change and know how to use tools like SD Formatter, chkdsk, H2testw, etc to test the integrity of the memory. It may be possible to remap the drive if there are bad sectors. Who knows, maybe there are no problems and they really are "Like New" like FD advertises. Hopefully someone out there can give us feedback on this.[End edit]
Note this is refurbished. 90 day FD warranty. FD does not give refunds. If it is bad you can get a replacement within the 90-day warranty. If within 10 days of purchase and a replacement is not available, FD may give you in-store credit. Includes SD adapter. Limit of two. If you don't live near a store, shipping will probably kill this for you (gotta love Cda Post).
Never heard of the Pixtor line before. Seems like an updated Ultra. The colours certainly imply so. New ones are U$54 on Amazon.com. These are highly rated on Bestbuy.com but I get a feeling the ratings are mixed with ones for the older Ultra line since reviews date back to 2014.
95MB/s is sexy but the big risk is if the design and/or manufacturing was flawed, you will only get replacement of the same. If it's a matter of bad sectors which are permanently marked as bad (thus never to be written to), this could be a good deal on a sub-64GB high speed microSD. But who knows what was/is really wrong with these.
