iPod Nano dock 97p

My local PC World (Bangor NI) had an iPod Nano dock for 97p. It is for 2nd generation nano's and is just a basic dock/charger. It is made by Apple. The same one in different packaging (white box) is £14.99. The 97p one is in a black box. Even the guy on the checkout was amazed. I also got a dual layer silicone case with screen and click wheel protector for 97p. This was iSkin brand, again in a black box. I couldn't see these on the website and obviously I don't know if all stores have them but it may well be worth a look!;)

  • Where abouts were they? In the ipod section, or a specials basket?

    Items ending with .97 are clearance items, so stock will be limited.
    Here's little trick for those who don't know - go to a DSG site (Currys, Dixons, or Pcworld) and in the search field type .97 then press enter and it will show some items for 97p, same if you type 1.97 and so-on.
    Though do remember these are clearance lines.
  • JMC160, that's exactly what it's like!

    Theronkinator, they were with the rest of the iPod stuff. Neither were priced, it was only when I asked what the difference was between the 2 docks that I found one of them was 97p. The SA told me it was old packaging so I went back to look for anything else that appeared to be in old packaging, that's when I found the case!

    If you type in .97 then you get the items priced at 97p. If you search on 0.97 then you seem to get all items whose price ends with .97 which is quite useful.
