That's an insane deal as long as you get the rebate!

17th street photo had it for $4AR but they're backordered.

They still make devices that support CF? Wow.

i got the 4GB one from Beach last week, free AR. this is well worth it.

Bogus overinflated retail typical of NY photo merchants. Shows how honest they are generally. I would be leery of these "deals."

what a price AR?!

Why is 88% rebate a problem?
FREE AR is 100% rebate...

J&R has it a bit cheaper

Too slow brah. Well, I guess it's good enough if you aren't doing continuous shots. I got in on the $10AR for three SanDisk 200x cards last month so hopefully I'll be getting my rebate soon.

If it were $20 with a $10 rebate, okay. As is, this is a scam waiting to happen.

The rebate is a LEXAR rebate. No NY photo dealers involved.

Its not the rebate that worries me, its what they do with my money before sending it back to me!

Adorama as a camera store has been around for many many years.
I was buying from them out of photo mags back in the 70's.

Adorma is most likely not the one processing the rebates. I didn't read the form so I could be wrong.

Rebates are becoming even riskier nowadays:
