There is no such thing as a DT200 DataTraveler Kingston USB pen stick at 256GB Go capacity. Consumers continue to buy the counterfeits on eBay. Sometimes they are cheap but sometimes they can be sold for as much as $150 US. eBay does not protect buyers from flash memory fraud, or stop the sale of DT200/256GB fakes.
Do you think it is an impossible task for eBay to control the sale of flash memory, or prevent fraud? If you think it is, perhaps you should read a buyers insight:
