Flash Drives in Bulk

[TheGreatSatan]

Any idea where I can buy flash drives in bulk?

Look at the prices I found:

http://www.flash-memory-store.com/usb-drives-bulk.html

You can get 20 - 128MB flash drives for $270. That's over $13 for each!! I can buy 2GB drives for that price at a retail store.

I found some better prices here (http://www.evertek.com/products.asp?cat=FLA), but not super cheap.

You may be better going to a manufacturer and asking.... I know that's what I'll be doing if I do one of my planned projects.

What about OfficeDepot? (sorry couldn't resist :P )

There are several companies that do bulk flash drives with custom screening for promotional uses. Most of them won't give flat prices but rather do quotes. You could probably fill out a few requests and get some decent pricing back. I guess the big question is when you say bulk.. how many are we talking about here?

At least 20 to start....

Get 7 of those packs I linked ($160.93). Works out at about $7.66 per 2GB Memory stick.

Yep.. the route I was talking probably doesn't get a break until you hit the first hundred, but you never know. You might still inquire, the worst that can happen is they are too expensive.
