Nintendo brands almost never (if ever) lost data. Even if it used, doesn't matter, your guaranteed not to lose any data, and I personally have never.
So this card is a great deal! Paid $35 for a new one, and they rock! Defientely going to pick one up if I can find one.

Ok, I also confirmed this by phone at EB, so it is a go. But there's one problem, good luck finding one. Just called about 5 stores, none have it. Even asked the guy to do an inventory check, none of the stores around my area have one. So I'll have to check again tomorrow...
Hopefully some other CAG's will have better luck than me

[quote name='Rictor']Sigh...just paid $20 for one online a couple weeks ago. Haven't even opened it yet...still in the EB games repackaging. Probably too late to exchange it in store and buy it back.[/QUOTE]
They can help you out at EB more than you think, just try, if they are cool they will let you at least return for store credit and buy the memory card.

[quote name='adidas']Sorry guys but when lookin online the picture says 59 blocks so be wary.... it might not be the 1019 memory card....[/QUOTE]
Nope, it is, the 1019 is OOS, and when they don't have an item n their site, it won't show up anywhere. I already called and had the employee check on it, and it is $9.99.

Damn!
I just got one off eBay a few weeks ago for about $13 shipped so I can't complain TOO much.
Nice deal regardless!!
Can't wait to SAVE my Gamecube games again (Mem Card 251 has been full for MONTHS)

I've never had a problem with a Nintendo memory card or any memory card for that matter. I have N64 saves that are years and years old that still work fine. There's really not much to a memory card for it to go bad.

True, but for those who do experience a memory failure it's a seriously horrific experience. Even if the difference in failure rate is only 0.0001%, multiply that by the number of gamers out there and those poor souls start to pile up.
BTW, will these be necessary for saving GC games on the Revolution?

I have experienced problems with third party memory cards, never with first party cards. I've heard enough to want to stick with first party cards in most cases but I see no real problem with a used first party card.
Oh and by the way, the failure rate at that percent would one in a million. That really would be no big deal.

Thanks a lot OP, I stopped by an EB and the clerk didn't even know as it's still marked $24.99. Last one in stock too.
I'm really loving EB lately.
Two Guncon1's for $.01 each
Xbox Silent Scope Gun for $.01
Two GC Memory card 1019's for $8.99 each (10% off for EB Edge)
If you are determined enough, you can find most things given time. Best thing is to try the less trafficed stores. I've found some of the best stuff on the bottom rack or behind the counter. And it never hurts to ask - most stores are willing to check other stores' inventories for you. (Of course computer updates due to the merger may cause temporary issues checking inventory.)
This was excellent timing for the memory card drop - my PO-Cube 251 card from EBgames.com had just arrived, and I heard about this. I paid $13.49 after discount for it, and returned it at the same time as buying the two 1019's. I felt bad about them shipping it just to return it, but the guy returning it even admitted he would have done the same thing.
