They'll be pirate copies, that's why there will be no updates.
The "SD" in SD card stands for "secure digital" - I assumed it was not trivially possible to copy chartplotter cartography, otherwise surely lots of people would be doing it?

I can't say for sure that you're wrong, but there are multiple vendors selling non-updatable Navoinics at similar prices and I'd have thought that eBat would be cracking down on them if they were illegal copies.

eBay has had various sold on it since it all began that are "****" .......

Navionics is copiable in fact ... but you need software to do it ... as you can appreciate - I will not cross that line here or PM to say what that sofrtware is called. Just to say that it was used duringf DOS days .... enough said.

"Secure" digital doesn't mean you can't copy a card.

If you make a report to Ebay nothing will happen. Might do if Navionics made the report, but i doubt it.

If not pirate copies, how do you suppose there are so many Navionics cards on Ebay for much, much less than they should cost ?
