Just a few hours ago I ordered a Sandisk 512MB MS Pro Duo from Buy.com for $107.99. It showed in stock and free shipping.

‘Thought that was a pretty good price and wanted to share it. Here’s the rub, there are two listings for the MS Pro Duo on buy.com, one in computers one in electronics. When I went back to double check before posting this one price had dropped and free shipping was gone…

Easiest way to see this is search for:  Sandisk Duo

The price in computers is now $106.19 with no free shipping flag. The price in Electronics is $121.99

Wow, that’s actually pretty good. I wonder if it’s some sort of mistake…oh well, it doesn’t hurt to try ordering it.

Thanks for the find.

Actually, if you used this $10 off coupon it was $98 shipped. I also ordered one…you can never have too many…

Happy to give back. This site has saved me much money.

I take that back, this site has caused me to spend much more money than I intended.:shock: But I sure got some good deals… :D

Have the email confim in my inbox. Even if it’s a mistake, I’ve no doubt they’ll honor it.

Bummer.

Only a 1% change…still a very good price…glad I locked in at $98 shipped. I have a ton of buy.com accounts…everytime they run a new customer coupon I create a new account and send my stuff to a friend’s house…hehe.

Until this TR buying binge   I bought seldom enough that there was aways a coupon available. Even without the coupon I’m not complaining about getting it for $108. Even TS would have to agree it’s a good Flash price.

Any flash purchase is alright with TS.

:wink:

here we go again.. :ph34r:

Oh, well. Just keep him away from the DSC-T1 thread, they’re taking about flash there. :ph34r:

The 512MB MS Pro Duo showed up today. Buy.com seems to have improved their processing time. Thought it was noteworthy that the stick (with adapter) came in a new style (to me) case. Wonder if Sandisk isn’t repackaging and gearing up to follow Sony’s lead in the new MS speeds and sizes. This might account for the dearth of high capacity Memorysticks the last little while.

BTW, I confirmed with a Sony rep that Sandisk does not make their MS…two different manufacturing plants…

Nice pic, mine showed up as well.

Erik

who ever started the rumor probably got confused by the faq on memorystick.com. 

Q2. Is the Memory Stick PRO format a proprietary Sony technology?
A2. The Memory Stick PRO media format was developed jointly by SanDisk and Sony Corporation.

It would be interesting to know who makes Sony’s. I’ve been happy with Sandisk. Looking forward to the 1GB Duo for the T1. If it works…

Took the pic with the T1, fluorescent light, no flash, color corrected in PS.
