Depending on your budget, I have bought a 6gb Creative MP3 player on ebay and this was direct from Creative.Europe, very good service postage was £4.10 make sure you in though, they will only attempt delivery twice and them charge you or collect at depot, I had to go to the depot to collect (90 mile round trip).

But all in all a very good buy, http://stores.ebay.co.uk/CREATIVE-SHOP-EUROPE hope it helps

Also you could be liable for import taxes…

Yes, anything over £18 (excluding postage) from outside the EU will get hit by charges from HM Customs and Royal Mail or Parcelforce, if it’s spotted on the way in. Parcelforce’s handling charge is £8 for a start. You have to look at the saving, after those costs have been factored in.

You can get a Venturer 40GB on ebay for around £60 (these will be UK sellers too).
The player itself is around the size of a walkman, but for 40GB you can't complain.

Dont buy hong kong or china.. buy from a uk seller selling mp3/mp4 players.. (like myself)

We dont rip off for postage and if you do need to return an item to a china or hong kong seller remember that you will re-incur the same inflated postage costs that you do when initailly buy it.
