Sorry, but where do you have to pay more than $10 for a 32GB EVO? This is one click away from your Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IVPU786/
To test speeds you use H2testw or f3 in a first step (this tells you sequential speeds and whether your card is fake or not) and then CrystalDiskMark to test random I/O too (see the explanations here: http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-microsd-card/)
And you should always keep in mind that all Samsungs I tested are pretty slow directly after powering up. They need some time to get faster (maybe some calibration or something like that happens)
Plus shipping to Australia its about usd17 still. Hence why im trying to find an alternative to the samsung microsd cards
