Thanks very much!

By the look of things the Sandisk Pro Duos seem to be going at a cheaper price on ebay!

Another thing is that the packaging for the fakes are nearly always indistinguishable except they don't usually have the warranty card inside.
This is the giveaway. If you do get a card and manage to register the serial number on the respective website then it most definitely is genuine.

I might get one of these sandisks

With Sandisks the regular 2GB comes in sky blue and there are "gaming versions" of these which are see-thru blue. The actual internals are identical, but they normally make out the gaming version is better.
A good thing about the transparent version is that they wouldn't want to fake these as they would have to go to the trouble of having to fake the details on the chip as well because it is visible.
