I had two of these cards, they both fell apart eventually. There's nothing wrong with the memory, but the casing isn't very durable IMO.

yikes Adam!

I don't have concerns about the brand, as I've had the identical card for my entire photography career and so far never a glitch. I never remove it from the camera, instead always use the transfer cable, perhaps that wears them out less??

Thanks to the OP!

The page says : fulfillment by Amazon.
They do take PayPal.

I use nothing but Transcend cards, remove them often for downloading, and never had a single problem over the years.

Most people have good luck with these cards but I think you and I sampled the same batch, Adam ...

I had one too and it fell apart. Very cheaply made and I cannot recommend. A brand I'll never buy again.

Mine died in hawaii with 200 shots gone to the wind. Drove to the 24 hr walmart and picked up a 32GB SanDiskUHS-1 in a jiffy to substitute, which worked great and still does. Transcend never again.

I only use quality SDHC/SDXC cards like my Sandisk Extreme SDXC for photos and videos taken away from home. Cards like this I use for transferring data between devices ( iPad to MacBook Air with SDHC slot etc).

Got my card today, popped in in the Q to replace an 8gb, and have been firing away.
Sorry to hear that some have had problems with Transcend, but I love them!
