Refurbished iPods?

My FH wants one and his birthday is the last day of our HM. (BAD timing, I will have NO money.

) So I was thinking of having one for him when we got home. Anyone know anything about refurbished ones? Are they just as good??? He needs one with a lot of storage since he wants to put ALLLLL of his Phish cds on it (which is a ton of music).

I don't know about Ipods but I personally stay away from refurbished anything. To me it is worth spending the extra money on something that no one else has touched.

I found a 80BG classic for 169 with a 1 year warranty from apple.com. I think I may buy that - that's a great price!

Re: Refurbished iPods?

Jen save yourself some $$ & get the refurb one. If anything happens apple will fix or replace it, and you can always purchase an extended warranty after the 1st yr if u want.
