How are the 3rd party (and bigger) GC memory cards?

I was checkin' out the memory cards on eBay and there seems to be like a hundred of 'em. Are the 8mb ones from 3rd-parties quality? I always hated buying those and losing my N64 saves.

I trust the Nintendo brand, but $15 for only 4mb is kinda a rip. Are they coming out with a 8mb one soon?

Nintendo has a much bigger one coming out soon. It might even be out already.

4Mb, not 4MB... if it's even 4. I'm not current on these things. Anyway, the other one is like 250 blocks for $20 sometime in June.

There is a 16x 3rd party memory card on the market (by Interact?), but avoid at all costs unless you are playing a sports game that requires its use. Just like in the N64 days, I've already horror stories about people losing all of their saves.

I suggest you wait until next month when Nintendo releases it's 251 card.
