Hi, first post here...

 

There are 2 micro SD cards listed on eBay as of 5/3/2015 which claim to be SandDisk Ultra/Extreme Pro 256GB.

 

 Sandisk ultra micro sdxc ush-1 card 48 mb/s 256 gb class 10 full hd video w/adp.

 

SanDisk Extreme PRO SDXC UHS-I 256 GB - SDXC Card  Edit: Ignore this one, the listing has way too many discrepancies.

 

However SanDisk's largest sd card listed on their website is 200GB not 256GB.

 

Quote from:

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/03/03/sandisk_launches_200gb_microsd_card/

'the only reason this is a 200GB device and not 256GB is that at 15nm, the die had reached the maximum size which could be squeezed into the microSD form factor to the specifications and still allow space for SanDisk’s control electronics...'

 

So my question is, are these cards real?

No I think that SanDisk would brag about squeezing another 56GB onto their MicroSD Card.
