Hi, I recently paid a 16gb usb key on eBay and it seems to have problems. for example : I cannot save some photos, I made a PC folder and some files may and some files may not be saved in another folder in this folder. it disappear next time i plug my key. i have to save it out of the folder to make it save. I don't understand because some files may be saved in a different folder, and other files just disappear.

I cannot format to NTFS even by following methods, (http://www.ntfs.com/quest22.htm) it tells me something like Windows was unable to format bla bla..

And before i format into fat32, word files were messed up, and some files were not saving.

maybe the problem is that the eBay key might be really cheap? ( I paid 16$ for 16Gb Key...)


PS : Also, may the key be less than 16Gb?? (since it was only 16 bucks) I fear that it may only be fake 16gbs

Thanks you!
 
And that's why i don't buy memory/phones/ipods/graphics cards from asian sellers with poor english skills. ;)
 
When you get a USB key, you need to stick to name brands. I've gotten a couple of flash drives from eBay, and they never work very well. Although you can probably get a refund by sending a message to the seller describing how poorly it works, and threatening to leave negative feedback.
 
If you use paypal you can have it taken off.
On the other hand i have only bought new
and unopened.
