60g vpod promo code

gotta pay the same price as the rest of us.

hes reffering to the new ipod with video support probobly..
and what promo code are you talking about?

I got a 21 discount when i bought my 60gb iPod from the Apple Store.

Theirs normally a link in the weekly Apple Store newsletter email with a discount of 21 if you spend over 211.

its on the bottom right part of the apple store website. ("Educational discount")

i knew what he was talking about. its just that apple didn't release a 'vPod' or 'video iPod'...it's just an iPod that has the ability to play video. it is still mainly an audio player.

you can pretty much BS your way through the student discount. There is no way to check it, at least thats what the guys at the store were saying. Don't know if it's true or not. He also said they really don't enforce the 1 ipod a year limit with the discount either.

it basically takes the tax off 30 gb is 269 and 60 gig is 369 not bad so it comes out to 300 and jus over 400

Saying you are a college student when you are not in order to get a discount is one of the most clear examples of fraud I can think of.

If it's not you that's in college, then it's still fraud.

Sorry, couldn't resist. :P

Getting that discount is as simple as getting your brother, or another college-student friend, to buy your iPod on your behalf. If they go to an Apple Store, they will need to produce their student ID and another form of photo ID (driver license, passport, etc).

If they'll shop online at Apple's web site, they should go through the Education link and follow the directions to choose their school and shop with the discount.

Whether your brother would ever buy one or not is irrelevant--he can get as many iPods/other Apple items at their Education discount as he would like, so he can even buy one for himself or someone else at that same discount at a later time.

And of course, you would pay them back plus tip. :D

One way to get the student discount with no fraud that I can think of is simply to buy the iPod from a University bookstore. The Virginia Tech bookstores all carry iPods and their prices already reflect the educational discount. Now, if you don't happen to live near a university, this is probably not exactly practical :)

As for ordering it from their site, since I do go to a university and I do appreciate the $30 kickback to the "poor", I wish people wouldn't abuse it. If Apple determines that too many use it fraudently, it will either become harder to use online or they will reduce the amount of the discount.

Here's the code. Just enter it on the website when you check out:

i mean, i dont want to do anything really "wrong" here, its just it says one per house hold, even if he bought it, it would be sent to my house anyway.

i get what you guys are saying though. maybe to make it totally legit, i'll just give him the money and he can order it for me.

you can pay him order for u. ask him to give ur shipping address when checking-out. the apple store has options for the shipping address to be different from the billing address.

if u r nice to ur brother, it can a really advanced Christmas gift even!!!!

As for whether it is a good idea to use this when u r not a student urself: to each his own. My values would not allow that. So, I myself would not buy it like that! But hey, if one of my friends who is a student offers to help me out, its a legit buy!

lol guys, my "ethical issue" has been solved. my Birthday is the 29th, and when i asked if he would order it if i gave him the money he's like "why dont i just get it for your birthday?"

sweet, problem solved guys. i dont think im doing anything wrong now. :)
