    My experience of refurbs from apple is that they are as good as new. No scratches, new components, same warranty etc. The only thing you don't get is the original packaging which may impact your decision if it is a gift, but paying £50 or so extra for a cardboard box seems a bit steep to me, since it will only end up in the bin anyway.

    IMPORTANT - to note that the refurb warranty isnt the same - you get your money back, no fix, no replacement. Still good value, but if it does break its probably that you wont be able to purchase the equiavlent with the refurd refund !

    My apologies - just rechecked the website and the policy appears to have changed from when I bought a couple of Minis when they were on offer a couple of months ago - looks like full warranty now. :j

    They have reduced these refurbished models to the cheapest i've seen them.

    Nano 2gb £65
    Video 30gb £129
    Video 60gb £175

    All with free shipping

    Link Apple Refurb Store

    I've had a refurb off them before and it was in first class condition.

    Yet the 1Gb Nano is still £73. Odd.

    Had a 20gb (£75) photo and a 4gb (£65) mini off them and they were brand new just not in the original boxes.

    I think Apple uses the 'refurbished' tag to sell off old stock.

    On the main Apple Store page, bottom right of the screen, bottom of the grey column, headed "Looking for a great deal?", says SAVE on a red ticket. Click on this to go to special offers, refurbished goods.
