MP3 players

Ianna

How much do I need to spend? I want something that's going to last me but I don't need anything with a huge capacity or anything fancy. Space for a couple of hundred songs would do it.

Any idea what sort I should go for? There's e-cookies in it for you

Well I have a 2gig mp3 player with FM radio, bought it from MicroDirect, cost me £35. its a bargain, it takes 1 AAA battery, I use rechargeables, and they last constant for over 9 hours.

Creative have an outlet on ebay selling mp3 players with damaged boxes - i've bought 2 from them now and the worst one had a tiny bash on the corner of the box - highly recommended.
(I got a 1Gb player for ~£25)

Have a look at Currys, they occasionally do half-price deals on Matsui players. I bought a 2gb one a couple of months ago for £25, pretty good for the money.

Def Ebay but make sure its the Creative Shop. If you look 1gig players often go for about £15.00 plus post of about £7.00. And there's always lots too.

I used Tecno last year for a digital camera and was very impressed by the price and service. Being a meanie, I used the standard del. (£3-95) and it arrived the following day anyway.

BTW, forgive my ignorance but what's an e-cookie ?

I have just ordered a 1Gb Mp3 player that doubles as a thumb memory stick for £12.99 + £3.95 p&p from 7 Day Shop, the link is:

I have used 7 day Shop a number of times in the past, their delivery is usually prompt and their prices are very good. I only ever had one problem and they resolved that very quickly.

But remember, there are MP3 players, and there are MP3 "HiFi" players. Just because its cheap does not mean its worth having.
