I'd really like to buy a 128 MB memory stick to replace the 32 MB one I have now (or just to have the 32MB as a spare...)
I've been looking around the net for a few days and I haven't come up with anything helpful thus far. I've checked Ebay to no avail, I've checked the most random websites I could find, I didn't like the high prices, etc. I found the best price to be on Buy.com, only problem is: they don't ship to CANADA!!! URGH! that makes me so angry!
So my question is, does anybody know of a site that I can get a 128MB memory stick for the lowest possible price AND have them ship it to me to Canada??? Thanks.

Try ecost.com or pcmall. Lexar has had a rebate going for some time for their 128 mb memory stick. ecost and pcmall are probably not the only ones, but yu should be able to get one for $45 minus a $15 rebate= $30. There was also a $20 rebate recently expired for the Lexar- (I got a pricematch with Gateway and should get a $20 rebate= $25 plus free shipping).
The $15 dollar rebate is good till April 30. I'd check around for you, but i'm in a bit of a hurry right now.

ecost's website isn't loading all the pages i need. perhaps the site is a piece of you-know-what, or maybe it's the computer i'm using now. i'll be home later anyway, so i'll check from there.

My Local Costco just outside Toronto has the SanDisk version of the 128MB Memory Stick for CAD$79 (that's about 53 greenbacks).
Happy Hunting!
http://www.futureshop.ca has the Lexar 128 MB sticks for $109 and a $30 mail-in rebate form (offer expires Apr. 30).
Oh, and they ship to Canada. :D

Where 'bouts you live in Canada? My solution to the problem was to go and get an American mailbox since I live near the border. I can shop online, send it to my American address and then bring it across the border...saved me lots of money over the years...if you want you could send it to my address and I could deliver it too you...:P

Hey. what's up.
I checked Ecost.com and they do ship to canada. check again. unfortunately i the lexar rebate is only available in the U.S.A.- so unless you have it shipped to some friend or relative in the U.S., you're not getting $15 back.
Ecost works through some company called Borderfree to ship to Canada. I don't know how much shipping is, but the Lexar 128mb memstick costs $67.15CAN= $45USD. shipping is free for purchases over $50USD.
Just put it in your cart, and click on the link for canadian buyer checkout. if you can find some ecost promotion code you can enter it at checkout, too. (i don't know if there's any code though).
good luck.

Amazon is having some kind of deal, for like $30 US i think :)
You can actually get some good ones on Ebay. Not used but new. Check the sites listed in this forum, and then see ebay. im sure you will find a great deal!
