Well, as all of you know, Gecko SD Adapter is a must for GC homebrew and possibly Wii homebrew, so I need one...  I don't care if it is one of those factory made ones, or one of the homemade ones, I just want it as cheap as possible...

Any chance someone could sell one?  Homemade or w/ever to cut down costs?

have you tried google !?

on various sites you can get them for around €19  (13 gbp/$26)

I think you can try building one yourself.
Here is the guide

I have seen those, the problem is, I don't have the materials to build one as my soldering iron broke.  I was hoping, instead of buying a new soldering iron, I could just buy one off the net.  And I have tried google, I don't want to pay $26 when there are sites selling them for $15.  However, they are all sold out.

Go to a canadian Tire,
They are 10 bucks each.

Soldering Irons?!?!

[falseadress]

yea. Soldering Irons are 10 bucks each at the Canadian Tire. Same with radio shack. I bought one last week at Canadian Tire

I decided I wasn't up to building one either so I got one from eBay. Total was $20.74 but it has to ship from Spain so it's gonna be a while before I get it. I doubt it's going to get much cheaper than that unless you do it yourself.

You can just buy urself a GC memory card and then using the floppy drive connector to connect a SD card.
Pricing List

Cheap GC menory card: 10 bucks
Floppy Cable: 1 buck.
Soldering iron 10 bucks.
Total 21 dollars

BTW
How did you break a soldering Iron?

[PharaohsVizier]

Well, I didn't break it, it just died, and doesn't work.  I took it out of my drawer to use for my WiiKey, and it just didn't work...  How does a floppy drive connector connect to an SD card?  Thanks for all the help BTW.

The floppy drive can act as a connector. I have made one already see this page.

Alright I'm just going to order one, it is too much hassle to drive down everywhere to find those parts.  So I'm ordering off gameparts.biz.
