Where should I look to buy a cheap iPod online?

First:

Look on comparison shopping websites. There are many websites like Pricegrabber, Pricewatch, Google, Yahoo, Amazon, Shopzilla to name a few. These allow you to find the best shipping price. You should take note of what third-party merchants charge you for shipping, some may offer a lower price and try to offset the shipping costs!

Second:

Research large established websites to buy cheap iPods online. Best Buy, Circuit City, Tiger Direct, Mwave, Macmall have online sales or mail-in rebates to increase their discounts. They usually offer free shipping as well.

Third:

Check out eBay, you can find a great deal to buy using bidding or trying to bid on an auction early in the morning or late at night when people are less likely to bid against you. Always wait until the last second so you don’t start a bidding war.

Four:

Check locally to buy cheap iPods Local stores will post ads in the Sunday paper that they only have in-store specials or you can check on craigslist to get one for a cheap price.

Fifth:

Don’t let the word refurbished scare you away from buying a cheap iPod. Most new electronics have a high failure rate from the start. But with a refurbished iPod, you get one that has been thoroughly repaired and tested. So you’re less likely to have problems with a refurbished iPod than with a new Apple iPod, and as long as it’s been refurbished by Apple, you’ll have the same one-year warranty as a new iPod!
