Best place for cheap & reliable M2 memory cards

On the look out for a 16gb M2 card for my Go and thought it might be worth making a thread as a resource for others.

To anyone who has bought one in the past where did you get it, price, brand etc?

It seems to me that Play.com offers the best price for Sony M2 cards.

I bought an 8GB Sony M2 from play.com for £17.99. I wanted to get the 16GB version but it's a lil too pricy at the moment (£54.99).

Are the ones picked up in CEX sealed etc.? The prevalence of fake memories cards would keep me away at the moment. Be more inclined to spend a couple more bucks and get piece of mind.

no they are not sealed, cex tests the cards that punters bring in and take the serial number down so if there are any prbs they will happily replace it.
