Check Craigslist, Redflagdeals or the EhMac for sale forum. Usually lots of items new in box for less than full retail.

How safe/reliable is it buying off someone on Craig's List when they claim for it to be in the original package?

Last time I didn't want to give in, I bought a Creative Zen Micro for $300. It broke within 8 months.
I'm giving in.

The refurbs on Apple's site have the same one-year warranty as the new ones.
A good percentage of devices have defects...refurbs are ones that have their defect fixed (remember, these have been accepted as warranty returns, not user damage), rather than ones that don't rear their ugly heads until after the one-year warranty has expired.
$299 for an 80GB...holla.

I'd go for the 30GB, slimmer and less expensive. Do you really need 80GB of music on you at any given time? I figured 30 was plenty for a trip or place I may go where I'm away from my laptop.

I have had three i-pods and everyone of them froze up after having them for only a month...good thing i bought a protection plan for them so i didn't lose out on any money...so my advice is don't buy one at all...i have had a sandisk media player now for a few months and have had no problems with it so I would recommend buying one of those
