Hacked players still a deal if cheap enough?

I'm thinking about buying a "4Gig" from Ebay seller SSHAN.SU, who has been reported as selling legit players.

But I might still be ok if they're hacked because the auctions have often been ending at about $35 with free shipping, so even if it ends up at 2Gig, it's still a decent deal.

Has anyone else had experience with SSHAN.SU? What do you think about a cheap hack-fixed player?

Never mind. Think I'll go with Lostall, since their service is so good. They sound like the best chance of getting a true 4GB.

Glad to see you changed your mind. I thought that of an 8gb I was getting for my nephew. I knew it wouldn't be 8gb, of course. Not at that price, but I thought if it turned out to be 2 or even 1 that is plenty of space for him.

As it turned out, it was a 512mb player. 1/16 the size advertised. Still plenty of space for an 8yr old, but definitely don't assume you will get a deal, even if it is cheap.

Some on here have gotten a hacked player that ended up having as little as 128mb memory.

Hi Guys!
I've bought a mp4 player 512 MG "Panasonic idea for life", but it's a fake one, not a original Panasonic product.

My problem is:
Windows XP can't detect it as a standard Mass Storage and detect it as a Unknown Device. Because there is AdfUpdate.ini file in its driver cd but not the AdfuUd.sys file, Windows 98 detect it as Adfu Storage but doesn't work.

Please help me, what can I do!

manofseven , is your player able to function normally? Like play music/video/FM?
If so, try using another USB cable.

Yes it works normally. It can't be detected as a standard Mass Storage Device. Win XP detect it as Unknown Device. I try with other cables too. But... .
