For such 128GB microSD's, we're now down from $29-shipped-from-China to
$17-shipped-from-USA.  However "new condition" with "Brand New retail
packaging" raises question as to whether this might possibly have been used
a priori?  eBay seller is rated 98.7% so worth the risk?  Limit of 2 per
customer, but how many earring do we need ;)
