both of the irivers i got off of ebay were in the 150-160 range shipped.  they were the older ihp-120's (the black ones) and each had a LCD remote, case, ext mic, etc.

i have seen them go for less (cheapest was nickspick, picked up one for $75), and i have seen them go for more (180+s/h).

my first one was purchased thru an individual and it was pretty much flawless.

i just got my second one saturday and i am charging it up now... its not as nice looking as the first one, but it appears to have functionality and that it most important thing.  this one was purchased thru a company that sells lots of electronic stuff

That damn Nick's Picks beat my price by two bucks.

Just kidding, of course.  Great little box.  I managed to nearly steal one, but the deals are there.

I got mine off ebay (ihp120) a couple weeks ago for $86 plus shipping.  It had everything included and was in the original box, although it was used.

I've been low bidding on some H120's hoping one slips through the cracks and I get it.  I REALLY don't need one, but if I can get one shipped for $100 I'll be very happy.  Cheapest I've seen any go the last week or two (fully functioning ones that is, lots of ones with HD errors available on the cheap) was $112 plus about $15 shipping.

I bid $86 on one (with $14 shipping) and it was a 7 day auction.  42 min to go and I was winning at only $20 and I had a meeting at work, came back and checked to see if I won.  Final price was $145 with about 20 bids in the last half hour :(

Are ebay sellers mentioning HD issues in their descriptions now?  I know that I had to send my first two units back to the seller until I got a fully functional h140.

Yes, they all say "Powers up and has HD connect error - might be an easy fix.  Sold AS IS" or something along those lines.  And there are TONS of them starting at $10 and selling for about $30 - $40.  Must be a pretty common problem.  The ones I'm bidding on are all fully functional, but don't have the earbuds or maybe missing the remote and original packaging...trying to save a few bucks on stuff I really don't need.  Thought I REALLY don't need one as my trusty CJB3 is still kicking ass, but if the price is right I'll bite :)

Paid $180 + shipping (from Australia) for my H120. Listed as a refurb but looks new- no scratches or wear marks. Came with sennheiser ear buds, male to male 1/8" connector, AC Adapter, & leather case.
