[QUOTE="V10lator, post: 10402651, member: 485896"] Always make sure to purchase directly from Amazon, not from a market seller, when purchasing SD cards on the Amazon website. If from a market seller make at least sure it's trustworthy before purchasing. Never had this myself but I even heard fake cards find their way into Amazons own warehouses, so this might also not be a 100% safe way to not get a fake card. //EDIT: Yea, fake cards for sure (or you where really unlucky getting 3 factory defective cards). No need to debug this more further. ;) //EDIT²: [USER=636278]@SDIO[/USER] Pictures sadly won't really help, I saw fake cards looking almost 1:1 like the original. Also I heard sometimes they look like original cause they are, these bad sellers just somehow get what the big brands sort out as defective in production (by inspecting their junk maybe?) and sell that. Also pretty sure the OP won't have pictures of i.E. the packaging anymore (or it was Amazon frust free packaging or somthing like that where it won't be shipped inside of the factory packaging anyway). //EDIT³: Or think about the following scenario [USER=636278]@SDIO[/USER] : Some seller purchases two cards: One expensive, big size and one cheap, small size.
