Hey Will, Not sure where you are in the UK, but if you happen to be shopping in London it's worth a trip to Tottenham Court Road and doing the rounds of all the privately owned computer shops there. A few friends of mine have gotten more than selling their old iPods on Ebay this way, especially if the device still looks good cosmetically. All of those people were asking for cash, I assume you'd probably get a few quid more part exchange.
