Ipod Savings

Many of us would love to own an iPod – we just don’t want to pay the price!You can save as much as 63% on paying full retail price by purchasing direct from the Apple website (www.apple.com/au). Simply click on ‘Store’, find ‘Special Deals’ in the left hand column and click on ‘Refurbished iPod’. All items usually come with full 12 month warranties, free postage and prompt delivery.

Note: The Apple Store says that while refurbished stock is available all year round, the range of products and quantities available vary from week to week. So if you miss out on your product this time, try again in a week or two.
