Best MP3 Player

[virtual-angel]

Hi guys and gals,

Ive been looking for an MP3 player for the last couple of days now, nothing flash, just something to listen to in the gym!

Ive been looking on ebay but ive noticed that there are a lot of sellers who offer MP3 players for 0.01p but with £19.99 p&p and £9.99 insurance. Is this a scam? Doesnt seem completely honest to me and im a bit dubious about buying one especialy as they all seem to be from Hong Kong!

Can anyone enlighten me?

Oh and what should i be looking for in a good mp3 player? im only looking to spend about £30 - £40 but like i said its only for the gym.

Cheers

I bought one off ebay and had nothing but probs with it. It eventually died after displaying everything in a foreign language.

If I were you I'd spend a little more and get an iPod Shuffle (512mb) for £56 ish. It holds 120 songs but you are pretty much guaranteed a kosher product with no problems. It also looks cool and is tiny so that it is easy to use in the gym or whilst out running.

I think they charge very little for the item and loads for postage to get round paypal or auction fee's. Happens a lot, it's not normally a scam, I've bought a few things where they've done the same.
