Does anyone know where i can buy a BRAND NEW ipod for less than $250 US DOLLARS??

I've looked in a lot of places, in stores and online and its pretty much the same everywhere. People even sell the used ones on ebay for 230. Can someone help me buy one for christmas??

The market sets the price. That is Econ 101. If you can find one for substantially less than the going market price you have either found a sucker or a distributor of stolen goods. Caveat emptor.

You might check on Apple's site frequently to see if there are any refurbished units available.

keep looking on apples site for refurb iPods. I just looked now but there arent any ipod videos. I got a 30 GB iPod this summer (refurb) for $179 and they have the same warranty as the brand new ones.

Is Costco an Authorized Apple dealer? If so, why would the warranty not apply?

I don't think they are doing it for the iPod.

Here they have great deals http://www.journeyed.com/itemDetail.asp?ItmNo=27798566 and it is only $1.00 less then at Apple store.
