GRRRR. I ordered my 60GB about 5 minutes after Job's little presentation. First thing I did was call all 3 Apple stores in the area. None had them in stock. So I ordered online. I'll suposedly get mine the third. shipping from China or some place. WTF? Why is it that Apple has this nice cache of iPods sitting around to ship to their stores but none ready to ship in the states. Yah its only 6 more days but still. If I had known I would have waited.

The only photo iPods in Apple Stores are demoes, they have none to sell for 1-2 weeks, so quityerbitchin.

Apple Store SoHo literally had like 50 the day after...All 60gb, though...

Good try Apple, but I'm not falling for that! 40 is enough for me.

What's the point of a post like this?

he was stating you were wrong in the fact that in the first post jsw talked about playing with one, while they were on sale. There is no 1-2 week wait..


oh and getting back on topic, i wonder how they kept this thing underwraps. IF there really was 10 or so 60 gig colors...then how did they keep this a secret?

Hi all, now that we confirmed the date for the music event next week, I hope you, guys from the apple retail stores, not to get your a$$ in fire if you open your mouth during the next days.

isn't it cool to work at apple?

They can manage that security level, pretty easy. :rolleyes:

Yes, I know, but I'm tired and want to sleep.

You'll love it. If I may be so bold, how much did yours sell for? I'm considering doing the same thing....

On eBay I got $364.99 out of mine......plus $15 to ship it via UPS Ground. That's with the original box, headphones (unused), USB 2.0 cord (unused), dock, firewire cord, and a clear protective cover from:
www.powerdesignusa.com

I ordered my iPod Photo today....can't wait to get it.
 
I picked up my 60gig photo at the apple store that had its grand opening yesterday out here in so.cal.

The 60gig is veyr cool the display is amazing and there is no photo lag. Its not much bigger than the 40gig I say that cause the new 60 fits in my bose sound dock using the last gen 40gig plate.

BTW the store i was at had at least 50 of each model

I don't think that is accurate. You have until the end of the 1 year warranty to purchase AppleCare for the iPod. Once you buy that you get a extra 1 year on your warranty, bringing your total to a 2 year warranty no matter when you buy it. Someone needs to give him a lesson on AppleCare.

That is correct.

Thanks for the info. Hmmmmm... I've never sold anything on eBay before, but I suppose I need to learn how sometime.

I don't know what I did before ebay. I sold my iBook on ebay to help pay for my PowerBook and my G4 and 17" display to help pay for my G5 and 23" display. Apple products resell well too.

Was wondering the same thing the other day. Before eBay I think we just used products until they were useless and then tossed them.

Well, I need to get started. I'm just clueless about the whole thing. No idea how to sell things, no idea how to avoid getting ripped off when people buy things. I'd rather sell in person....

Go to ebay.com and click on sell. Read their how do you sell on eBay info.

NEVER ship before payment has cleared.

jsw,

This late in the game you might want to find a friend who has a solid eBay rating to sell your iPod for you. eBay is built on trust, and a guy with a (0) rating trying to sell an expensive iPod (or 17in Powerbook as is often the case) would have a hard time finding buyers. You'd probably still sell it, but from my experience, sellers with low ratings take a profit hit on their auctions.

If you do go ahead with your eBay auction, post your photos of the iPod, not some Apple press photos, and make the ad as professional as possible.

I agree and add not to take bids from bidders with a negative feedback.
