I read some <a href="http://www.nevblog.com/2005/03/lottery-experiment-itch-to-scratch.html" rel="nofollow">crazy dude's blog</a> where he did that. Insanity! :) If I was going to sell it, it'd probably be via Craigslist or something, avoid about $7 in fees between Ebay and Paypal and with something as high demand as a Shuffle, it'd be better. I'll give it some creative thought. :) I could ebay the shuffle and buy a ton of scratch off lotto tickets. I read some crazy dude’s blog where he did that. Insanity! :)

When it arrived, I opened it up to see how it was and the handle on top, where there was a logo, was all rubbed away. Anyway, I called them up to get another handle and they sent me an entire spice rack. I haven't decided what I'm going to do with the Shuffle. Retail value is $99 and Ebay has them going close to that price (which is strange), but after fees it'll net me a little less than retail value. Maybe I'll post it on Craigslist at $100 obo. Not entirely sure... I don't really need/want it. Maybe I'll give it to someone as a gift.

I sold the extra one for about the same price I paid for the first one...and I got cash too! Are you going to sell your extra Shuffle? -Nev I once ordered a bass guitar online and was sent TWO instead!

Are you going to sell your extra Shuffle?
