I-Pods - cheaper in the U.S or not?
Hi Guys,
Even though i`ve just come back from NY my mate has just gone there. He called me just now to ask if I-Pods are any cheaper out there or not.
Personally i dont know jack about them so could someone please advise?? He only wants to buy one there if they are considerably cheaper.
Thanks in advance
Neil

A friend of mine has just got one from the US, and says that because the pound is stronger right now it works out cheaper to get one out there...so yeah. :-)

YES !!
Eg. 40gig:
US price = $480 (£257)
UK price = £390
I call THAT a good deal !

Unfortunately you are correct Ben.
It`s lucky that on of the guys who used to work for me now works in our NY office and can ship me things via internal post, if I ask nicely enough ;)
With the pound so strong right now they`re a real bargain...just waiting for the 4GB ones to come out. Already have a 2nd generation 10GB one but would like the smaller player

Any other way then of me importing a mini iPod for a decent price? Or am I going to have to end up paying the probable UK RRP? (about £200) :(
Maybe I could try eBay, but that still won`t be as cheap as buying straight off of Apples site. :( Any other US distributors?

They`ve got them on Amazon.com for $249.99 (£134.26) here.
Anyone know if they ship these type of products to the UK?
RE: I-Pods - cheaper in the U.S or not?
From the Amazon site. Shipping: Currently, item can be shipped only within the U.S.
All the best,
