As you probably already know, Samsung is replacing their top of the line Pro Series Black SDHC cards, which spec at 90 Mb/sec read speed and 40 Mb/sec write speed. But that means the current cards are being heavily discounted. The 16gb version is being offered for $6.99 each at the BuyDig eBay store:

16GB SDHC Pro UHS I Class 10 Samsung Memory Card Up to 90MB S | eBay

Just to be clear, this is the 16gb version of the 32gb cards being offered by Adorama at $34 for a two-pack and $67 for the 64gb version in a two-pack. Adam mentioned those in a separate post.

While you are correct that it's a great deal, I wouldn't buy a card from ebay on a bet. Too many counterfeits out there.

Buydig is the seller, looks legit to me.

They are 8.99 now. I've bought from them and was happy with my purchase.

I have two of these, they are good fast SD cards.

Can I use these in my K10D?

We've determined that the file write speed of most current and near-current Pentax DSLRs - as in the K-5 family, the K-30, K-50 and K-500 but NOT the K-3 - tops out at about 40mb/sec. Do I have that correct?
