Best Price for iPod?

The Biffer · 01-31-2005, 03:02 PM

Hi, me again with more questions!

My sister (in England) has asked me to get her a 20GB iPod to take over to her when I next visit. Any advice on the best price out there?

I looked on CNET, and it looks like the best prices are $292 to $299. Anyone know where to save more cash?

I know some places online might do well, but shipping could offset that saving. I see one at Circuit City for $299, so it would need to be noticably less than $299 with shipping cost factored in.

edu discount. The HP supply has been drying up because of a disagreemnet between appl eand HP. I'm not sure if they are getting new shipments in or not. If HP is still delivering, look for a deal at staples

Educational pricing is easily the best. If you are a university student or staff member, go to a university's electronics store and buy one. For example, the UCSD Bookstore sells the 20GB ipod to students/faculty/staff for $269.

Does that apply to grad students? In which case I'm heading over to the UCONN store this afternoon to pick one out.
