Addendum:

There are a HUGE number of iPods who's completed auctions show ZERO
bids. Many more for less $$$ than stated below. Lots of supply, not anywhere
near as high of demand.

Bottom line - GOOD "business" says that this is FAR from a sure thing.
In fact "business" would say that it is, in reality, very BAD business.

Certainly, only a complete idiot would think otherwise, like (Oxford) below.

You Apple stockboy training didn't teach you "business" very well, huh??
