I think it would be 'safer' to not touch the 16GB players at the moment. 8GB players are not all confirmed to be 'legit' as well.
It's really hard to safe guard you from a hacked player. There are posts of people who bought 1GB players, only to find they have 512MB or only 128MB!
Best to check the seller's feedback and search anything about them on the internet in case someone has posted them as a bad seller.
If you pay by PayPal, you can file a dispute if the player has been hacked. You can see a lot of members have done this in the past and got a partial refund which is better than sending the player back for a full refund.
Hope that's of some help.
