My fault for trying to buy a "cheap bargain" - lesson learned!

I've bought a few different USB drives off TM and I do wonder sometimes. If the (supposed) manufacturer has a website you can register products on (Sandisk does) I always do that. I guess if it was a fake I'd get some sort of error message.
