HI, on average I purchase 10-20 mp4 players every 2 weeks off ebay. Meizu is my fav.
1. you can get ripped off buying anything on ebay, be careful and it wont happen.
2. You spend 80$ on a 8gig player , then you find out it is only a 2gig player, So What! you still saved money compared to retail.
If you want zero risk - then go to wal mart and buy a 2gig player for 149$
3.""writing congress??"" half of congress doesnt know what email is the other half use it for emailing love letters to little boys,
they couldnt point to china on a map and certainly would give a blank stare if you mentioned the firmware on your mp4 player.
Ya lets have the feds control it like they controled military purchases. (flashback 10 years - army paying 500$ for toilet seats!!)
(flashback 2 years - 8 BILLION cash money misplaced!!)
come on people ! i mean .. come ..on !!
lets not get into the "there should be a law" thing.
You lost 20$ get over it!
the real fruad is apple selling ipods for 399$ which cost them 59$ to make.
6000 mp4 players sold everyday to Happy customers for less then half retail price.
I myself will continue buying mp4 players from various sellers.
if i lose a little money here or there i will deal with it cause overall i save ALOT.
I will also continue to wipe my own ass. hence if i get some on my finger....you will see no posts of me petitioning for a fedral mandate of stronger TP.
i will clean up my own mess, i advise you do the same.
those who give up privacy, freedom , choice, rights for the illusion of safety.. will end up having no freedom, no choice, no rights, no privacy. and NO safety.
