Deal: 4GB Memory Stick for $20

by Andrew Yoon { Aug 18th 2008 at 9:26AM }

Looks like the 4GB Memory Stick PRO Duo is back on sale! Buy.com is selling the PSP-compatible memory card for only $20 -- that's the cheapest we've ever seen it. For many, 4GB offers enough space for music, movies and games. However, we're still keeping an eye on slowly falling 8GB Memory Stick prices. If we see a good 8GB deal, we'll let you know.

In the UK, thats the same price as a 1GB. Heres a table-

UK Price In dollars

1GB 10 Pounds $20
2GB 20 Pounds $40
4GB 30 Pounds $60
8GB 60 Pounds $120

I'm not too sure about the 8GB, but we're still paying a hell of a lot more

Wow. I just paid $30 for this same stick not more than 2 months (42 days) ago...

strike @ Aug 18th 2008 11:05AM

You count the days?

Christopher @ Aug 18th 2008 11:31AM

@ Strike
Nope. I bought it the last time PSPFanboy ran a deal notice on this stick, which if you look at the "related headlines" listing under the article says that the last memory deal they posted for precisely this stick was... 42 days ago.

oh, OK =D

Having a 4GB stick entirely changed the way I use my PSP. It opened a world of possibilities. And that price is INSANE!!

Grab it if you haven't already

PiemanPieman @ Aug 18th 2008 11:10AM

I picked one up. I just started using my PSP for video more, so definitely something I could use. Amazingly I now have three Memory Sticks.

i paid 40$ on a 4 gig around this time last year but i need one for my sony cybershot. only get like 6 pictures outta my 32mb memory card on the 12.1 megapixel shots.

OneMale @ Aug 19th 2008 12:10PM

Nice camera. Thanks for the heads up PSP Fanboy, I just got myself a 4gb Memory stick!

I dunno. I'm unwilling to trust Buy.com after hearing dozens and dozens of bad customer service stories. More than any other online retailer ever, actually.

Their product listings for game accessories also tend to be undetailed or incorrect.

If anyone does bite on this one, drop a comment or something and let us know how it went...

$10 dollars isn't too much of a difference, so if it makes you feel better, you should probably get it from somewhere else, for $30. Unless you don't earn money, like me, then $10 dollars can be a huge difference @___@

Alex McKee @ Aug 18th 2008 11:53AM

Just bought one, hope it's good for homebrew. :)

NukeAssault @ Aug 18th 2008 12:33PM

That is pretty damn cheap... but id still rather wait for an 8gb drop.

Jacksons @ Aug 18th 2008 1:14PM

Yeah, me too. I'm still fine with my 1GB, so I might as well wait.

davivman @ Aug 18th 2008 1:41PM

Thanks for the tip. I placed an order and look forward watching Tivo recordings downloaded to my PSP!

NoBullet @ Aug 18th 2008 2:21PM

Looks like the deal is over. When you add it to the cart the price jumps to $41.31

1251 @ Aug 18th 2008 3:12PM

It isn't $20.

Once you add it to your cart, it magically shoots up to, and I quote: "$48.50"

sean @ Aug 18th 2008 4:27PM

switch it to free shipping. mine was automatically put on 2 day shipping. gotta switch it over

PSP_Guy @ Aug 18th 2008 3:43PM

I use a 16 GB Stick in my PSP (I use it mostly for music/movies). If you have the extra cash to spend (About $149) I suggest you pick up one of those.

1.3.1.4 @ Aug 18th 2008 4:42PM

I'd like to get a 8GB or 16GB but I don't earn any money to be able to pay for so much, so I'm stuck at 2GB. It holds all my songs, but it isn't quite enough for the videos I would like to have. At least it can hold my songs.

NoBullet @ Aug 18th 2008 5:27PM

The deal is still $19.99 at Amazon with free shipping

Sold out...

Darlaten @ Aug 19th 2008 11:25AM

In Canada, at Best Buy, Future Shop and Amazon.ca puts the price for a 4 gig memory card at $47 to 51 dollars.

WhiteShield @ Aug 20th 2008 1:25PM

cool! but the only thing is that i already have 2 1gb mem sticks and a 512mb one... but i would love to get this and put everything onto one stick!

psychohare @ Aug 21st 2008 3:31AM

well i just bought an 8GB M2 for $45 (shipping included) last weekend... which comes with a pro duo adapter... that's surely not a bad price right?
in case u're wondering, i got it off Amazon.

Alex McKee @ Aug 22nd 2008 3:51PM

Just got mine, works perfectly.

Dave @ Aug 25th 2008 3:51PM

I ordered mine right after this was posted. It's been a week now, and according to Google Checkout and buy.com, they still haven't shipped. Did anyone else jump on this and, if so, are you still waiting for it just to ship?

[PKB]CamyBoy @ Aug 26th 2008 1:23AM

In NZL i can get them for 50 bucks on-line. but then again thats 2nd hand. but theres no difference

devitek @ Aug 27th 2008 12:45PM

Due to complete negligence and stupidity, I've now submitted a formal complaint against Buy.com. Seven emails, and not ONE of them was authentic--all of them were variations on the form letter, and I use the term "variations" loosely.

It's probably unwise to refer your readers to Buy.com, as they are notoriously underhanded, despite the deals they may or may not make good on. Crooks, the lot of them.
