Ipod nano leather cases £3.94 including p&p [CLOSED]

  • I believe the Ipod Nano replaces the Mini. Essentially the Nano is a smaller, sleeker version of ipod mini, less memory than original Ipod - nano comes in 2Gb and 4Gb versions. The Nano features the same sort of clickwheel as the original ipod, whereas unless I'm mistaken the Mini had a slightly less refined version of the clickwheel - well early versions anyway. The Mini was also hard drive based as opposed to the Nano which is "flash memory" based. Essentially Flash memory means it can be a smaller design and has no moving parts.

    Oh, and the Nano comes only in white or black. The Mini was in all sorts of luminescent colours, but that will probably change in the future.

    Has anyone received their case yet?

    When I click the "Buy Now", I get taken to a Paypal page that says:

    "Error Detected:
    This recipient is currently unable to receive money"

    Anyone tried calling Rongqi Lin (the site owner) on 020 7514 9989?

    It could be something simple like Rongqi has exceeded the £250 receiving limit per month on a paypal personal account. :confused:

  • This is not looking good. Let's hope that this guy wasn't farming login and password details for Paypal.

    What kind of business has a "250.00" personal limit on their PP account. Fishy, fishy, fishy.
