Picked up the new Argos catalogue at the weekend, and I’m still shocked to see the prices Argos think they can charge for digital memory cards. For example: an unbranded 1GB SD card for £22.99, or cards branded Kodak and Fujifilm for £27.99… ‘less than half price!’ Meanwhile, over at Amazon – a 1GB Kingston Technology SD card for the truly startling price of £1.29 (plus Marketplace postage rates). Or for a direct comparison: this SanDisk Ultra II 1GB SD card. As little as £11.97 from an Amazon marketplacer, but £33.99 from Argos – and that’s even with a £16 discount already applied.
