Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The ipod was fully charged right out of the packaging. The charger that was with it works well. The seller was courteous and prompt throughout.

Apple will come out with a dazzling new pure ipod. Here's the tricky part that apple accidentally forgets you to tell you.

Apple has a sleek little rca cable that you can buy for a pretty penny to be able to hook the ipod up to your tv. Just plug it in and go. Make sure you've downloaded the latest season of your favorite tv show.

Cons

After a week out of the box, even with the use of an ipod sock my ipod had a load of superficial scratches. The first thing you see once you wipe the ipod with your shirt is a million small scratches on the surface. Horrible quality especially for $40... Read More

Apple's estimated repair cost is $280 which they want up front to repair it. This suggests to me that they will fix the duds i have handed in and then resell them to somebody else. I bet they do a roaring trade given the unreliability of these objects... Read More

This heavily irritates me. It's quite easy to get wound up and frustrated. That is just sad.

The only good thing about it is the capacity. Lack of fm tuner/recorder and voice recorder. No removable battery pack.

Highlights

Quality

Easy to use, itunes compatible, great weight and feel to it.

Sadly apple let this one go - the classic ipod was great and build to run for years to come.

Was just frustrated the first one i got didn't work and had to send it back.

Before realizing my computer's issues (haven't used it in about a year), i thought there was a problem with the ipod.

Price

Finally - fair / good price for ipod classic.

Lots and lots of space, no stupid touchscreen tech, and it was a killer price.

Also price seemed pretty steep for a used ipod.

I ipod was in perfect condition for the price i paid.

Shipping

I was very happy it got here within the week too; sometimes it can take longer than they say.

Supplier was great, arrived exactly as advertised.

It arrived earlier than i thought and it even came with ear buds!

It was shipped to me via usps, which was a little slow.

Packaging/appearance

The ipod was fully charged right out of the packaging and was delivered in great time.

It came in good condition; just as described.
