The price sounds good. Are the refurbished from Apple nice? Like are there any scratches or dings on them at all?

This is a nice product- no scratches or signs of use in any way. I got a refurb for the exact price about a year ago and it is still going strong. But I couldn't see myself buying another when creative has their Stone at the same size with more than double the features (2G storage plus LCD screen) for less $ than a refurb Shuffle. Also, the refurb Shuffle is not a good gift because it comes in an ugly brown box with "REFURBISHED" printed on the side so it will make you look cheap. New Shuffles have that fancy clear case.

LOL! iPod shuffle.

#3- you are obviously fat AND lazy bc you must never go in a gym. The small size of the Shuffle makes it very popular among people who actually work out.

Agreed, for running and/or gym use these are great. Anything else obviously the lack of LCD and small storage are killers.

I have bought Qty.3 of these refurbs from apple before and they appeared in mint condition though YMMV.

To avoid $4 shipping on a Qty.1 order I would also buy a $10 itunes card -even though this would be an emailed code I got free shipping - or you could consider it a $10 itunes card for $6.

how reliable are apple refurbs?

Even if it was new, it's still a ripoff!

Another $52 off would make it a deal. Anything more than that is too much.

I never understand why someone would rather buy refurbished things.
#12   jackaninny - Posted 12:24 pm PST 12/11/07 (23 Posts)
the refurbs carry the same 1 year apple warranty as new products. i just wish apple used a regular usb connector so it could be used as a flash drive also without the special connector.

Darn, this is a day late. Yesterday the shipping would have been free.

I have lots of Apple refurb stuff and it all works great.
#15   acumenhokie - Posted 1:22 pm PST 12/11/07 (464 Posts)
I agree with #6's idea of giving it to a 3 year old filled with porno sound clips.
#16   CleftonTwain - Posted 1:45 pm PST 12/11/07 (370 Posts)
Never understood the the iPod Shuffle. I want more control than that. I've got a Nano (refurb--had no problems with it) with an armband and it works great for running.

thanks for the help #12 and #14. Apple's regular prices are a little too thick for my blood

"I never understand why someone would rather buy refurbished things."

I never understand why someone would not want to save some money and buy refurbished things. Of course, if you must spend more $ than you have to you could just PayPal it to me. Smile

It's a good deal as long as you don't mind having the previous "generation" of iPods...
#20   aznxboy86 - Posted 5:43 pm PST 12/11/07 (249 Posts)
This thing is awesome for workouts....but i don't think it will last that long...if you use it for workouts. Great deal though....
