Ipod Shuffle

 

I got a relatively new toy that I bought from a colleague a week after I arrived back from vacation. I was interested in getting an MP3 player and was already of thinking of ordering online when I saw him pull out his silver . He got it for free from as a promo months ago. If you get them as your bank to have your salary transferred to, a shuffle would be given to you. I wanted to jump on it but decided not to as it would actually be a hassle to do it. Anyway, he told me he wasn’t really using it so I asked him if he would sell it to me. I asked how much and he said QR25. Looking at the price online, it was actually a good price. From Apple, it would cost me US$79/ QR 293 + shipping. I didn’t know yet how much they were selling it here in Qatar then. But being a slick dealer, I pushed him a bit further and asked if he was willing to sell it for QR200. He did agree after a bit of tugging and he doesn’t use it anyway. So I got myself an almost new Ipod Shuffle! Later, we bought found out that they were selling them in for about QR350! I’m sure he’s now shaking his head for selling it to me for QR200!
