Re: 16GB USB Drive from Interdiscount only has 256MB?!?

No panic there. Swiss shops are very customer friendly when it comes to this kind of things. Upon thorough and logical explanation they will understand and even exchange it without a receipt. Had once this kind of experience with Wii console accessories and they didn't even let me show any proof unless of course you look like you robbed the mall
Yea, Interdiscount has been especially good at returns/exchanges in my experience. Hopefully they'll do an exchange without a receipt, we'll see. At least it's only 20CHF, not a major deal.

I'm also wondering if they had a mass problem with this drive?...or if my case is isolated? (Partly the reason I posted this here, to see if anyone else had this problem)

Does it have U3 installed on it ? Maybe you have just formatted the boot partition and the hidden partition cannot be accessed. If so, got to the U3 site and get the software to remove U3 , or reinstall U3 again.
No, the first drive I had was clean. I really don't think it's any partition issue. Every test I made on the drive is showing it as 256MB, and no errors or anything like that. Never saw anything like this, and I've had dozens of drives in my life.
