Fake iPods on the market

Fake iPods on the market

An unfortunate person is telling how he bought a fake iPod on eBay in images. It starts by looking like a good deal. The MP3 player is cheaper than the official price (the bait). Upon the opening of the package, the obvious comes to light: it’s a fake ipod, and it’s not pretty. The quality is way cheap. This buyer had to argue with the reseller, and at this point, we do not know if he has been reimbursed. Via macbidouille (fr)

Well, that is a refurbrished iPod Shuffle. It is on Best Buy. ;) But I really wouldn't buy those 'cause it probably won't be compatible with iTunes.

Fakes follow immediately after launch of any product, and especially, if the products become famous. It's not easy to nab and fix it forever. The only difference that can be made is by the buyers, by simply keeping their eyes open.
