    Best Buy has the Creative Zen V Plus 4GB mp3 player for only $59.99. The normal price on this player is $110! This deal has no rebates involved. The player is currently on back order for shipping. It will though ship free in 1-2 weeks once its in stock. Most stores have them in stock for local pickup!

    hmmm if i can change my credit card address to my US address I can get this shipped to me :D

    I have a question....it says these have to be backordered eh? and that they dont charge your credit card until they are ready to ship, but i think my credit card has been charged, that amount appears to have been taken out!

    Strange... You could try and call Best Buy and see whats going on. Maybe they are shipping these things again. Anyways, my sister went to Best Buy to check it out, and turns out they were out of stock in the store also, even though it showed in stock online. So she ordered 3 of these, and is going to pick 'em up in a week or two for $59.99 each! :D

    LOL you should really use skype out. I'm also overseas. :) I think skype out is like 2 cents a minute to the US. But, I purchased a 3 month unlimited skype card so I can call unlimited to the US for $9.99.

    skype doesnt always work here, the telecommunications company here is a monopoly so it tries to ban anything thats cheaper.

    besides they cancelled my order :( they took the money and then cancelled it and now the zen is sold out!

    What? Best Buy is trying to scam you? They could be suspicious because your ip is coming from another country. I usually order over a VPN so then I have a US ip address. :)

    I dunno, they do say international orders are welcome as long as they are shipped to US addresses which this was.

    This is a really nice deal! I'll check it out at my local BB tomorrow, may pick it up. I'm waiting on the 6G iPod coming on September 5 though, so maybe not.
