I'm thinking of selling mine. There seem to be few/none on Ebay. Is this because nobody wants them or they're like gold dust? ;-) Mine is originally purchased from Creative UK when they could charge 349UKP for the basic unit, delivered, and we thought that was a good deal! Anyway, it's been looked after as something actually worth 350UKP - As new condition, and with NO mods - Working with latest firmware - Original box, case, IR remote, headphones, etc - HDD has been formatted, so original tracks not available Extras: - Real leather Creative case (imported from US) - Fitted with 2nd battery (up to 22hrs batt life) - battery life still seems fine - 2nd Creative PSU/charger (one for home, one for work, not that I ended up using it) What would someone pay for it these days? I'm in the UK, and would prefer not to ship outside the UK.

Got �60 (after selling costs) for my mint one complete with extras when l sold it on ebay in June06. The NJB3 has a few features not found in more recent mp3 players but really the latest generation mp3/media players are now relatively cheap and pretty good with it. Only thing l miss is the credit card size remote control, otherwise my Vision:m knocks spots of the njb3. I guess most people in the market for an mp3 player have already got one by now. I'd sell it while you can. Good luck "Wibbly Wobbly" <wibblyw@yahoo.co.uk> wrote in message news:ypqdnUYu-vqI4gjYnZ2dnUVZ8qaqnZ2d@pipex.net... > I'm thinking of selling mine.

Is this > because nobody wants them or they're like gold dust? ;-) Creative sells refurbs or at least did as recently as a year ago. I bought one when the hard drive in my NJB 1 died. It cost me $50 (I couldn't get a new hard drive to play well with the firmware). No accessories, no charger, no manuals, no software--just the unit. http://stores.ebay.com/Creative-Labs-Factory-Store_W0QQsspagenameZL2QQtZkm > What would someone pay for it these days? > I'm in the UK, and would prefer not to ship outside the UK. Not a whole hell of a lot since much better functionality is available in much smaller units with greater capacity now. I figure $75 is the best you can hope for. Best Regards, -- Todd H.

Ah. This is an *unmodified* unit, so 20GB. To be honest I thought they only did them in that size - sorry for any confusion - maybe later ones were available from Creative with larger drives, I can't recall. I did a battery run-down test last night. ~192kbps VBR MP3's (encoded LAME alt-preset-standard), shuffle mode, driving earphones at level 13. Lasted ~17.5 hours, so I guess the batteries are indeed ok. They've not been abused, and even kept at low charge levels when I've not been using the NJB for a while (which is supposed to extend their working life) - so I guess this has all paid off. If anyone here is interested, please mail me at wibblyw at gmail dot com. I won't ebay it just yet...

I haven't looked in there in a while but there always seems to be someone looking for one.
