It's an Avera brand (never heard of those), but they show to have mostly good reviews.

I ****ed up on that one from Amazon. I was waitlisted and didn't hear the notification until it was too late. Only lasted like a minute it seems. Didn't even bother to try the Best Buy one.

Yeah, it was definitely luck of the draw on the flash deal. Don't feel too bad.
By the time I let some friends know, they had already ended the deal.
