How much is a 128MB USB mp3 player worth?

I am trying to get such a player, but prices of 30-40 Pound Sterlings and above just almost get me off this. Is anyone familiar with current prices?

p.s. This is all auction prices that I mentioned.

HERE you go, about £60 new - thought if i were you and had access to a CDR/RW drive i would get a CDRW based MP3 player, as you get a lot more music for your money.

Thx Rip. I was trying to get one from eBay though. Trying to get a deal while I am here. Otherwise it is 20 Euro only for shipping to Bulgaria I think. So 30-40 is OK right?

i would say from ebay £40 maximum, not worth paying more than 2/3rd's of the new price for secondhand goods IMO

Yup yup. Takes some time and patience (*Grrrrr someone just stole this deal*... by several p - sounds familiar doesn't it), but it sure is rewarding sometimes
