I have to say that's an excellent price, though I mainly use 64gb cards these days. Note that despite the headline numbers, the 80MB/s Sandisk cards perform notably worse (in terms of speed) than the 90MB/s ones.

From what I have read, I agree with you about the speed issue - but if someone doesn't need cards with a very high writing rate then that's a good buy.

I'm not a fan of using microSD cards in SD adapters because that means two more sets of contacts (on the adapters) to get loose, corroded, damaged or otherwise partially/totally non-functional, and thus jeapardising reliability.

A bargain indeed but note that although payment by PayPal is offered - their site does not respond to that option. If you buy from their ebay site it will cost you an additional £5.40...…
postscript: In the end I gave up - the site kept saying I was ordering 3 at at a cost of £70 +.

I take your point but personally speaking I've never experienced any issues with micro sd cards and I've used enough of them.

I had a similar issue but I found that once I had logged into 7dayshop the paypal option worked just fine.

and I remember when the price of cards came down and we celebrated the fact that 1GB came under £100 at last, so in the space of 16-17 years, these cards are approx 0.1% less than of what you would've paid then...
