Reasonable price for 48sx 32k expansion?
I managed to find a32k memory card for a 48sx finally, but wondered what these should be worth so I don't go too high. Anyone bought one recently?

HP-brand cards go for more than 3rd-party cards due to perceived collector value, and I don't think there were many non-HP 32KB cards. OTOH, there are 3rd party 128KB cards available on TAS for only $50, so I'd say got for the larger card since it appears you plan to use the card (rather than just collect). --Bob Prosperi |

I would say that typical prices for 128KB RAM cards is ~$100 but the Norand cards often go for $50.
I bought a 32KB RAM card very recently off of eBay for $35 but they sometimes go as high as $59. The 32KB cards didn't sell great back-in-the-day since HP's 128KB cards were 2x the price but you got 4x the RAM so most buyers sprung for the bigger size. For the 32KB RAM cards, I am only aware of the HP made ones and the rather rare Smith Corona ones. |

Cards over 128 KB are usually designed for the GX in port 2, but there were a few made for the SX that typically require a special bank-switching driver/program to be installed on the calculator to use more than 128 KB. |
