[OM] Compactflash deals?

[Gary Teller [Permanent Link]]

Ali,

I just recently received from Amazon 2 Sandisk 4gb ultra II cards for 
$34.82 each or $79 total including shipping. Was the best deal I 
could find after spending more time looking than I should have.

Right now-Tuesday night-they have

4GB ULTRA II Compact Flash (SDCFH-4096, Bulk Package) selling for 
$37.99 + $6.98 shipping for a total of $44.97

They also have

2GB ULTRA II CompactFlash Card (SDCFH-2048-901) selling for $18.99 
each with free shipping-about the same for 2 as Calumet's price after 
their shipping has been added. If you want standard shipping 2 cards 
will run you $44.15

Pricegrabber.com search came up with HighTechVendors.com selling the 
4gb card for $34.25 with free shipping.

I've never ordered from them but I did see you can order by phone and 
use a major credit card.

Amazon's prices/shipping seem to change daily. No sooner than I'd 
received the cards I began wondering if I should have gotten more. As 
for prices dropping, it seems like there's really good buys on 
Sandisk SD cards. CF cards are commanding higher prices.

Happy shopping.

Gary
