Buy this off ebay?

[jer446]

I need a wall charger for my ipod mini, and i dont want to spend much money. I came across this auction on ebay, for only 10 bucks, so is it ok to buy? Will the charger ruin my battery or anything?

Well, that's a lot of stuff for $10... it's probably legitimate, but you have to wonder about the quality when you get all of it - and the dumb anti-radiation cell phone shield - for a buy-it-now of US$10.75.

Its definatly Legit, it wont break your ipod but i am guessing it is very poor quality and wont last very long..

Keep in mind that Apple charges ridiculously high prices for their accessories. Paying $30, for example, for a dock is outrageous. Apple's margins on those wallchargers must be huge so don't be surprised to find similar 3rd party charger for well below the prices apple charges. In some cases the quality may be slightly less, but in most cases I wouldn't worry. Especially if you're only paying $10! Just make sure the specs are correct and you're good.
