Anyone know of any Black Friday CF card deals? I usually use Black Friday to stock up on memory but I am having the hardest time finding CF cards. Plenty of SD card deals but no CF deals...

Thoughts?

Best prices I have found without rebates has been eBay. There will be some BF deals, but don't focus too heavily on that day. There will be plenty of other deals leading up to X-mas and even after.

I don't trust memory cards sold on eBay since there's too many fakes/knockoffs being sold.

Many of the BF sale ads have already been leaked to the public.
blackfriday.com There's also a lot of pre-BF sales going on too.

I always check the sellers feedback and the items they have sold in the last 30-60 days. If you do your homework and see that the seller has sold this item to other buyers and nobody has trashed their feedback, chances are they are selling something legit.

It's ALWAYS a gamble to buy memory cards sold on eBay.

While i do agree with that, there are many cases where most buyers have no clue. e.g. It took a long while before people complained about the counterfeit LP-E6.

Are they all class II cards? I couldn't find any compact flash, but lots of SD cards for sale. Which site did you find this on?

Amazon.com has it even cheaper. The buy.com deal comes to $54 with shipping. Amazon has it for $53.44 with standard shipping. If you have prime, you get free 2 day shipping.
