    The same items arent displayed every week so the 50% off a Ipod is a non-entity, refurbished products change every wednesday ie displays, ibooks and ipods.
    Why put up a link to something that isnt a grab it bargain......it would have been more useful to post this item yesterday, but then again they wouldnt have been enough units to go round as they only ever sell a few and there gone within minutes. But worth noting people to the site all the same for future reference.

    Can you explain the difference between this and another link that is live all the time and seems to have them available. I didn't buy it right now, but it ended up in the basket; nothing said out of stock. nb this is a third gen one perhaps the OP has a refurbed fourth.

    There's also a 30GB photo for £248.99 - mind you that could be the normal price for all I know.

    The link the original poster give only occurs every wednesday at 10am for refurbished products which is what the original poster was talking about, and is incidently to any other link on the site that may offer special offers etc.......

    I got one of these last week and yes the box does say refurbished all over it.

    They also don't come with the USB connecting cable so if you have a PC and not a Mac you need to buy one of those as well to connect it to the PC to download your tunes. I got mine from Maplin for £14.99.

    My son was so pleased with his that I ordered another one today (had to wait a week to do so!) for another son.

    Soo
