Default SD card slot problem

As I mentioned in my previous post, I just got a 650 off of Ebay recently, and today I finally got a SD card for it. When I tried to insert the card into the slot on the phone, it doesn't click in like these cards usually do and if i hold it in, the phone still doesn't read that a card is inserted. Does this sound like the slot is completely broken or am I just doing something wrong? I know i'm putting it in the right way. Luckily, the seller has a 14 day exchange policy and I can always get a new one...

Take advantage of the exchange policy and if price is not a factor, I suggest getting a new phone or a later model. The slot retaining mechanism is defective.

Silly question, but are you inserting in the correct orientation? I know, a bit basic, but I had to ask.

I can't physically check mine as I don't have my Treo with me. I forgot to bring my cell to work! First time in nine years!!!

I believe the beveled edge should be inserted first with the beveled edge on the left side (toward the antenna). You should feel a spring tension once all the way in and it should stay in by itself. Removal requires you push in and it will pop out a bit.

If you are sure of that, Benjie is 100% correct. Return it.
