I was looking at some completed auctions, and saw this CompactFlash card that was sold for $5. Would someone be able to tell me what the catch is here? Laughing

I have bought a few things on Ebay and I have sold a few things on Ebay, the best thing I can tell you is to check the rating by those who have bought from any seller you are thinking of bidding on. If they have an excellent rating you will probably be OK.

Be sure and read any and all information they have on an item you are interested in. Especially if it can be returned if it is defective.

The various blogs on PayPal recently have n't been very encouraging - another way to pay might be better. $5 sounds pretty cheap for 128 - my daughter uses Buffalo HS and they cost quite a bit more.

Good offer but agree with RadarMan about high shipping cost.
