What to buy at Pixmania for £196 to sell on ebay?

I have a credit for £196 at Pixmania which I must spend there - there's no chance of getting the cash out of them.
I've looked through the Pixmania site to find a bargain (or bargains) that I could buy and immediately sell on ebay for as close to my buying price as possible, but there's just too much too look at!
Is there something obvious (or not so obvious) that I've missed?
Any ideas?
Help!

    Unfortunately, the credit is attached to my account name.
    A camera or ipod is possible. Trouble is I know nothing about either, and their prices are not that great, I think.
    I expect to make a loss, of course, but would like
    to minimise it.

    do discounts ever come up? or cashback sites? if you could cut the purchase cost even a few % it would help a lot for resale
