    Purchasing memory cards is such a time consuming process... You have to search online for prices, sort through which ones are legit, visit a bunch of shops,compare prices, finally buy your memory, and then hope that the price doesn't drop in the next month or so.

    I've been done in by some ridiculous price drops in the past... especially this one time when I bought a Micro SD card for my R4 gaming flash card at what apparently was a bargain price, only to later see that it had dropped by five bucks in a week's time.
