60g - $439
30g - $380
8g nano - $380
4g nano - $299
2g nano - $219
1g nano - $179

Went to Carindale, had already sold out of the 60g in the first half hour. Had to get one shipped over from another store. I guess if you can't get one at Myer someone like JB might price match?

Oh wow sick, I didn't actually know the 8GB's were in stores

As an Apple reseller. They are meant to only sell at the recommended price, and no retailer that wants to keep their Authorised Apple reseller status will price match.

ps. those are the same prices that you could get from the Apple shop if you were a student or worked for any form of educational instituion. And the apple store gives free engraving.

well you know what meant did don't you? stuck a feather in the ground and meant it to grow a chicken!

are these the brand new nano's?? shuffle clip ones available too?

I just checked the apple website yesterday, and u can order them off the apple site for those prices + free engraving.

If a place has a price match gauruntee (not sure if JB does?), unless they stated otherwise they would have to match any advertised price regardless of the supplier. I know that's the policy at my work.

Doesn't matter though, I'll just get it from Myer.

Apple Resellers are allowed to discount full retail pricing when and how they want, they are just making a loss on the product.

If the Apple reseller is selling to a Key Customer, Education Customer or has obtained an SPR for a product, they are not allowed to discount the product as they are then selling the product on behalf of Apple not for themselves.

Why buy a 60gig when you can buy an 80gig for $499 from the apple store?

f***kkk their ads are cooooooooool

Aww I want one!

Nice one Eds, thank you for bringing that to my attention. I'll go the 80 instead.

That is a cool ad - I'd love to see a virtualisation thing for winamp in that sort of style

I think that was a price drop from apple, jb have the exact same prices

8G solid state. tempting tempting.
I'm on my 3rd 40G ipod and the disk is already putzing up :((

I would think that would exclude competitors sale prices wouldn't it?

just bought a 4gig iPod Nano at Big W today for $295

Just got it because my new Alpine headunit plugs iPod straight in, so easy peezy beats.

what would you possibly want engraved on an ipod

I bought a video ipod ages ago for $450, much to my surprise the price hasn't dropped even the slightest.
60g - $439
30g - $380

Are these the prices for the video ipods?

iAm so f***ing hip right now

what would you possibly want engraved on an ipod

"This is not Persays iPod"

I'm on my 3rd 40G ipod and the disk is already putzing up :((

If you've gone through 3 iPods, why on earth would you buy another one?!?! I have a Nano by the way, and I think it's pretty cool, but if I had 3 break on me, I'd be using something else...

Hahaha I was thinking the same thing.

MiPod :D

What to get engraved on an ipod?

www.mininova.org!

:P

or the old classic

"Evidence B
RIAA vs. [Name]"

or just get your name on it so when the thugs beat you up & steal it they know who they've stolen it from

There was a whole thread on SA dedicated to "What do engrave on my ipod" and there were some f***ing golden ideas, I'll try and dig it up

man these 8gb ones are so tempting. I heart my 40gb 3rd Gen one but it's soooo massive it's a pain to take around to some places. YARGH!@#

thats what im thinking as well except i got the ipod photo 60gb, wouldnt mind somehting smaller in size

Same haha, I'm thinking about getting one of those new shuffles for running/gym

They're so fukkkken smalllll

whats the capacity of the new tiny ones?

ONE

i got my dad a 30gig 5th gen ipod for his birthday.

Got
"Happy Birthday!"

+61733785555 (my home phone number)

this idea being that becaues he likes to travel if he lost it and someone was kind enough to turn it in then they could contact the owner anywhere in the world.

I also wish to see the SA forums ideas.

An email would be better.

Phone numbers probably change more often these days.

nah it's a residential number that hasn't changed in about 16 years.

you might want to change it now you've posted it on a public forum :)

i'd love to see him lose it, an old lady find it and, after 5 minutes trying to find the + sign on her landline, throw it in the trash

in what time frame have you gone through 3 ipods?? I've had mine a year now with no issues.....yet

I've had mine for almost 3 years I think and it's still kicking strong

It sorta seemed like mine just died in the goat arse pretty quickly. I haven't really tested it but I don't think the battery lasts even 15 minutes now. Still ok to take to work and have plugged in to power while listening to though.

I've had mine for 3 or so years also, it crapped out on my once, and I stopped using it for a few months cause it wouldn't charge or power up. But I tried to use it like a month or so ago and it started working again!

If you still want to keep your old iPod, get yourself an iPod battery replacement from Jaycar. I replaced it for my mum's iPod mini (which she has for only like a year - same problem, wouldn't hold the charge, wouldn't powerup). Replaced the battery with larger capacity now it's great. Bewarn tho, you will most likely scratch your iPod mini when you replace the battery. This particular kit I bought didn't come with a nice plastic/non-scratching tool to open the iPod so I had to use screw driver.....
