Found: your old (small) SD cards

I'm looking for those "old" 512, 256, 128mb (or even smaller) SD memory cards. I know memory is cheap as chips these days, but not quite so much here in Oz, and buying new from US, I'll pay more to the vendor in shipping than for the card! And besides, recycling is good! I know some of you have those tiny capacity cards that came included with your point&shoots just laying around at the bottom of a box.

Reason: grandma recently got a digital photo frame and I'd like to get a somewhat regular stream of photos going to her. It's a pretty low-res one, so I can fit couple hundred photos even on a tiny 128mb card.

So before I spend, and you gather more dust, let's do some swappin'!:D

I can pay a few bucks via paypal, or if you're a bit more fun-loving, I'll trade you a little something Aussie for your trouble... you've all heard of Cherry Ripes, haven't you?
:deal


thanks!

    Geez, I feel for you.
    Not to rub it in, I just bought a new Sandisk 1GB Ultra II SD card for $15.50.
    No tax or shipping fees either.

    I know, I definitely miss easy internet shopping - Australia is really not as into it as we are in the US.

    Are MMC cards OK too? I've got a 16 or 32 MB card that came with a camera that I've never used. Too small to be useful for a 6mp camera.
