This is $20 MORE than it was a few hours ago during this wootoff. [EDIT] That was a refurb and this is new, but still.

Also, this is only $10 below retail of the new version that just came out. You get a choice of colors, it's pre-loaded with the newest software, and it's $199 straight from Apple with free shipping and no taxes. They also still offer free engraving if I'm not mistaken.

In Woot's defense, the $199 price point for the 8gb model is brand-new, and used to be $230, but I think if Woot wants to remain Woot-tastic, they'd have to bit the bullet and take a loss on these puppies.

Perhaps they put the wrong model up and the price reflects larger spaced one?

*edit* Nevermind sfmaniq solved the mystery.

Perhaps I'm missing something, it is $199 direct from Apple with free shipping. They also won't charge me sales tax, so it would be cheaper to buy direct from Apple. Makes me sad, because I would love to buy one if it was just a few dollars cheaper

I'm thinking the difference is that the last one was refurbished, this one is new. Buy 3

Pros:
No tax
5 dollars cheaper than app store
Cons:

+1 I'm missing it too then. $10 less than apple.com. This is certainly not "wootable" but then again not much is any more.

I was pretty confused there for a second.

I checked the WootOff a little while ago and there was an 8gb iPod up...went for a run and came back...and it's still an 8gb iPod. What's more, they've apparently only sold 1.

And now it's $20 more?

Bam, no. Just timed it wrong. There WERE things in between.

I'm sharing this story with the rest of you so you don't make the same mistakes I made.

It's not worth it. It just *isn't.*

Funfact: Italics don't work in Woot proper.
