This is very odd!
This appeared on the grabbit thread yesterday where a couple of posters (myself included) had queried the fact that this post doesn't make any mention of international shipping costs and taxes to be paid.
Now it is on the Shop But Don't Drop thread with our posts delted
Can the OP check out these costs before posting or edit thread to include them, because once these are paid, this ipod might not be cheaper at all, and also there may be no warranty applicable in UK as this is from International Site.

No point: "Newegg.com does not offer International/Canadian shipping options at this time."Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good. - Thomas Sowell, "Is Reality Optional?", 19930

Sorry about the Last thread, I should have read the sticky. but heres the link, in the right forum this time, I hope..
Anyway, click here! Its $339 which I believe is about £177, Whereas Argos sells them for £250. :j
don't forget international shipping charge from the seller, then add on import duty and taxes....dont forget also to add on UPS fee for processing this and bringing it to your door....then finally, don't forget to check the difference in price if bought at Boots.com using a 10% off voucher on a weekend with triple points.....then the points you normally get shopping at boots, dont forget 6.5% at quidco oh yes and if you do get a faulty one or there is a problem....how easy it is to return (I know first hand boots are brill)....
sorry to sound a bit negative about your post....but unfortunately there are some shoppers who use this board who shall we say....perhaps don't read the small print (which you have left out)....and will pursue this "bargain" because its listed here....then come back on and complain about being hit by charges for import etc....I'm now a retired teacher... hooray ...:j
