It's Gearbest; it's fake. And as for Gearbest being reputable... no way.

And.... most of the reviews on that site are by their own staff. If you want to believe it's genuine then that's up to you but not many others are going to fall for it.

Isn't that a contradiction in terms?

"P.S. Don't give me crap about how it's fake, this is from a reputable site which has 32 reviews for this specific card." - reputable site you say ...so why did you forget this side name in the title ?

100% fake, absolutely no question. There are also fakes coming directly out of the Kingston factory, annoyingly. The whole supply chain is corrupted right now

I ordered the SanDisk one was all worth it had a fast speed on it also what I noticed with Kingston is that sometimes the speed drops for me this is cold

great deal thanks op! heat!

I notice there is no write speed data available for this item.
Does anyone have a benchmark ?

14.52 US DOLLARS

100% not fake whatsoever. We`ve just been robbed for years with these flimsy bits of plastic & metal, and GearBest are beginning to charge what they are really worth. :smirk:

Do you have any supporting evidence for these claims of their own staff writing the reviews?
Also, seen as they're allowed to be submitted to HUKD and you can pay by PayPal so you can make a claim should it be fake - I like to generally regard this as a good sign of a company being reputable.


Yea, forgot to mention from GearBest, reason being I just used the title of the product.

Thank you to thomas58 for adding the @Gearbest :smiley:

i think gearbest should be added to title not just description

Yep, added.

Worth a punt, if fake you can tell. raise a pay pal claim in that case!

i checked out pics of this product for a laugh or gearbest,
dont get me wrong am not slating them ive orderd from them
BUT, some of them microsd cards ARE fake
amazon as seler £12.58
£3 difference , EU warranty etc
buy cheap, but twice
im , out
:man:

last time I ordered something, they wanted pics of my ID and CC... no way jose

yes. They said I *could* cover my DOB for my privacy :confused: and on the CC could cover the CC number except the last 4 digits, but still... and I was trying to pay with paypal to begin with...

Not to mention isn't gear best in china? So with christmas it might arrive in a month...

The card is legitimate I got one last month and have tested it with h2testw, it's faster than my samsung cards from EE. Postage takes a while, I'd go UK only normally but I saved about £5. Don't bother with ebay cards though.

I've got a 'new' drone here that does not work. It comes with a camera and SD card - There is someones elses picture on it!

if they were a UK company you may get compensation by telling them about the DPA1998
or the new consumer regs 2015
:man:

Read here: http://www.gearbest.com/about/verify-payment.html

doesnt say how they will store information and for how long, also as non uk company no recourse if anything goes wrong, does say only random people and a one time thing , i wonder if its done if card address and delivery address is different , either way , i would be out of that sharpish

It's the same everywhere. Staff writing their own reviews. Poster using pre-emptive strike .. don't give me...

9.97 for Kingston uk employee purchase :stuck_out_tongue:

How about Argos and amazon?

I received my memory card today and it's not a 64GB card it's a 32GB card that gives 28GB of usable space, I'm a little disappointed as I have never had any problems with Gearbest before.

​It's not your fault mate, I will just claim it back through PayPal.
