Sandisk Extreme memory cards

Just been reading about fake memory cards on Ebay, they say up to 90% of Sandisk Extreme 111 Compact Flash cards for sale on Ebay are fakes, heres a link to see if you have real or fakes.
I got one recently from Picstop because they were offering free capture one software licence (for converting raw files) with them otherwise I might have got one from Ebay

Re: Sandisk Extreme memory cards

I got a free one (512mb) with the 30D and compared it to the ones I already had and it was much faster at writing to the camera, I got told the best raw software for the canons is capture one and came across Picstop doing a free licence with Extreme cards so I bought another as the 512 wasn't big enough.
Suppose it depends on the cards you are using but they are certainly faster than the ones I had previously.
Heard some good reports about MrMemory own brand CF cards
