Default 1GB CF card - best value?

I have seen 1GB Compact Flash cards for as low as £45 (ish) however once you take extortionate shipping (sometimes up to £10 ) into account, then it becomes more expensive.

Where's the most reasonable please I can get a (fast) 1GB CF card?

Thanks.

Or www.7dayshop.com
Bought my first one there in May when they came below £100 - about £50 now.
Not necessaraily fast though.

The second one I bought in the US for £62 at the end of Sept and I think they are still about that price now, over there.

Last week a Sandisk Ultra II 1GB was £55, but they've gone up a bit since then. Kingston 1GB at £44 is pretty good though!

IMHO I would avoid dabs, they have awful returns/aftersale customer support if things go wrong
