I missed this one :D That had to be some kind of mistake… Why would they give it away for free?
I believe the cards are cheep to make. What you pay for is engineers’ paycheck.
In addition to that is demand. If you want to shoot pictures you have to have a card.
Than brand name. There is

Delkin Devices 16GB CF UDMA6 for $34.50 but I will go with SanDisk only because I never heard complains about failing SanDisk cards(I don’t say they don’t. I just didn’t hear about that ;) ).

I dunno if you remember this but Sandisk had some deal like 4 years ago where if you bought 3 8GB cards at once then the rebate actually paid for the entire order. I don’t know why CF cards are still so expensive when a few years ago you could get them free with a rebate. Also most of the rebates are through manufacturers not BH directly.

Last time when B&H made a deal on SanDisk cards 2xExtreme16GB for $124.98 I jumped on it. It was half the price.
After the “deal” finished they fixed price of the cards on this level and cut the price of ExtremPro half as well.
It made me mad because I didn’t really need more cards but I bought them just because of the savings.
Lesson learned ;)
