Currently a 20GB iPod is £275 after discount, including tax and shipping. Takes them about 2 weeks to deliver it though.

EDIT: Damn people posting at exactly the same time as me.

hehe, looky, I was a whole minute ahead of you

I got a £15 discount email when I ordered my 40gb iPod, which would enable me to buy another item from the apple store online a bit cheaper.

Tell you what, I'll sell it to the first person to offer £20

[s4ch117]

this may sound stupid but do apple offer insurance with the ipod?

See http://store.apple.com/Catalog/uk/Im...spolicies.html

According to point 10. you get 1yr warranty (think that's what you're asking).

And, of course, any delivery they make is insured against loss or damage.

Hope this helps.

i want to get it insured for theft and accidental damage

[steve threlfall]

I doubt that apple do that. Its not like a mobile phone or anything. They are very valuable Damage shouldnt be a problem if you get the ipod armour- tho at £30 that kinda cancels out your discount. Theft however...
