That video is an outright lie. You can get a 32GB Class 10 SD Card (top of the line, ultra-fast speed, and probably faster than Vita cards) for $34 on Newegg. Even expensive ones are less than $50. The pricing of Vita memory cards is blatant gouging.

I actually agree with you. i just posted the video because...well i don't really know why lol
But anyway these prices are probably not even real, because the vita in japan cost 24980Yen (wifi only) witch = around 300$ A 32 gig card cost 9500Yen witch = 120$. see what im saying?? gamestop obviously just straight converted Yen to US just as a place holder number. i doubt these will be the final prices, im gonna wait for Sony to confirm the real prices.
(or maybe my theory is completely wrong lol)

It's possible that you're right, but unlikely. The reason being that Gamestop didn't actually straight convert ALL the prices, and that they can't actually afford to make them cheaper than the Yen prices in America. Fact is, the Yen is insanely strong right now, and for export companies like Nintendo and Sony that means they lose tons of money on every American dollar made. The Vita will absolutely be selling at a loss at $250 in America because of this, and they'll have to make money on the memory to stay afloat.
That's my reasoning anyway. I could be wrong too, but I expect these prices to be correct.
