Cheap ipods: Are there such things?

The first iPod units released in the market in November 2001 only had 5GB of storage capacity but it was placed at a retail value of $399. Less than a year later, the 10GB iPod was born, and then 20GB, and the latest iPod can store up to 80GB. The irony is that many of these changes accompanied price reductions. Therefore, the 5GB, $399 iPod was too expensive for its capacity. Consumers can presume that cheap iPods will be coming in the future with greater user interface and storage features.

Where can you find cheap iPods?
The cheap iPods you find are most likely used models that date back months or a few years ago. Their prices have been discounted because of depreciation in value. For instance, you want to replace your 6-month-old iPod because a new release with a bigger storage capacity (and probably a few changes in casing) is now available in the market. Although it's only been a few months, your old iPod unit's value will be pegged at 62% from its original price.

That's how the market works and it something you need to deal with. Nonetheless, you don't really expect a few-months-old iPod to tarnish as quickly as its depreciated value. Apple is simply devoted to constantly changing the internal components and look of the iPod.

Cheap iPods are also available on Internet auction sites some of which have been modified by their old owners. It's up to you to accept the alterations made by the owners but if it's cheap iPods you're looking for, these sites have plenty of them.

Before buying a cheap iPod, take some time to read a few buyer's guide information so you will know where you stand and to assist in your decision-making. Apple ensures that revisions will be significant enough for consumers to fall into them. However, there are a few changes that the company would rather not publicize especially if it concerns glitches. Learn about the cheap iPods models you intend to buy and find out the flaws they held.

When buying cheap iPods consider the accessories that go with them – whether it's a new pair of earphones, a case, or an armband. Some owners might even go as far as gold-plating their iPods after making the purchase. Like everything else, buy according to your needs and preferences.

New iPods cost from $149 to $349 depending on the features included and the size of storage space. Remember that trends also change, and cheap iPods may not be as cheap as they seem.
