I have an iPod Touch Generation 1, but I want the new one; Genratin 2. Is there a way I can upgrade or swamp my iPod for the newer one at the Apple Store. Does it matter the condition of the iPod, because it's all scratched at the back.
 
as long as its w/in 6 months of when u bought it theyll exept a return with 10% restock fee (plus ship) over phone.

Not true. Apple only offers a 14 day exchange/return policy and the item has to be in original condition.
 
The new one isnt that good ide keep the one you have WAY better plus flat back, more compatible stuff just keep it.

Don't kid yourself. The new touch is better, but not significantly better so as to warrant an upgrade.
 
So I can't swap it in.
Can't like I pay extra for an upgrade
Cause' thats what happened to my cousin, he had the old Nano, it broke down and then he went to go and fix it and they said that he could pay extra to upgrade it to the new nano's.

Help me please.
And I also go it over seas before i flew back to Australia, so does that make it worse or better :S

From my experience with the Apple store, they're policy is to say "no" unless you give them trouble or a reason to give you anything. Just go to the store and tell them you feel you're entitled to an upgrade but that you'd be willing to pay a fee to do so. I don't know if there's a standard for them except to be salesmen and try to say no... but they won't want to lose a customer. Try to talk to a manager or someone higher up on the chain as they are less likely to let you walk away unhappy.
 
Sell it

Why don't you try to sell it and then buy the new one?

Anyone have any idea what a used one goes for these days?
 
I just bought mine (16 gig) off ebay for $190 but the 16gig is steadily going for 210-225.
