Refurbishing a iPod Classic

Trust me, I'm not a Apple fanboy at all! In fact I'm more of a Google fanboy. But I have always had a weakness for the iPod classic. Just the idea of having your entire music collection at just one press of the button. Fascinating! And then that sleek no-nonsense design and that click wheel?

But I always considered the price of the iPod classic a bit steep. 250-350 euro is a lot of money. Money that could be well spend on other nice things. And so I never gotten an iPod. Never... Until last month.

Yes, 10 years after the release of the last iPod classic I bought one! Of course not a new one. Even if someone would have had a brand new one it would be... well a classic. And so they probably also be sold for those "classic" prices. No instead I gotten a very well used secondhand one. So well used that it was full of scratches and a big dent in the back. But at least that gave me the opportunity to negotiate the price down to €40.
