he is probably using these for fraudulent returns at walmart and such. id also be happy to purchase any defective ipods/electronics that show no signs of damage
Considering I'm from the United Kingdom and don't have access to wal-mart.
It was simply to improve my skills which I can later use in my repair job, where I fix old/defective electronics. The project was being my business. Asda is the equivilant to wal-mart over here. For returning such items I believe you require to have a receipt & packaged. They will also not accept bad scratched devices. Therefore old ipods will have scratches on the back, which are very hard to get rid of.
