Ipod Source?
Does anyone have a good CHEAP source for Ipods? and before you say "check alibaba", since that has been the running theme lately, i allready have and am in touch with a few guys, but i was just seeing if anyone had a source that they have used, etc.
PM me or post here, maybe we can trade some sources for stuff 
Thanks
Joey

That is the only place I have seen. I looked and found some on there for $130/ea. with a minimum order quantity of 5.

Yea, I would be skeptical as well. What is the minimum order qty? If it is high, I might be less skeptical. Are you planning on giving them away to your customers, or doing something like freeipods.com?

Min. Order is only 5 i think (it may have been 15) ive looked at so many i dont really rember, but i plan on reselling them here on campus. Everyone has them and if yo dont have one people want them. Im looking for them cheap so i can sell them cheap. Id prefer to sell the mini for 150 where is at best buy its 250.... you get the idea

Yea, that is a pretty good idea. I tell you what... if you get the deal going, maybe we could go in and buy them together... especially if they will give a bigger price break. I wouldn't mind selling a few for cheap  .

Thats actually a good idea. Maybe there are more then just us two that would be willing to do this and we could get a decent price break.
I personally would love to find someone that doesnt have a min. and they are still under 80. I would just buy them in as i sold them.
Ill keep on searching

You should be very careful when purchasing through trade sites. There are many scammers out there. If I were to buy from alibaba I would ask that the seller send the package COD or something like that.
And make sure they have a trustpass or something of that sort.

This Alibaba thing looks good, but I can't afford to buy 5 of the same thing, and I can't figure out how it works. Ebay is a lot easier to use.
Do you have to own a business to buy something on Alibaba?

You do not have to own a business... but Alibaba is not intended for end-user purchasing. It is for wholesale purchases for resale.
