Apple iPod Shuffle Refurbished 1GB MP3 Player (3rd Generation)
Put Some Color On
Wear up to 240 songs on your sleeve. Or your belt. Or your lapel. The 1GB iPod shuffle lets you clip it on and wear it as a badge of musical devotion.
One Size Fits All
The iPod shuffle just may be the biggest thing in small.
You know what they say about good things and small packages. But when something 1.62 inches long and about half an ounce holds up to 240 songs, “good” and “small” don’t cut it. Especially when you can listen to your music for up to 12 continuous hours.
Ready To Wear
Clip it to your coin pocket. Clip it to your bag. No matter where you clip your skip-free iPod shuffle, you’ll have instant access to music. Put it on, turn it up, and turn some heads.
Remix And Match
The first step to wearing 240 songs is downloading iTunes — free. Then drop your iPod shuffle into the included dock, plug the dock into your Mac or PC’s USB port, and sync in minutes. Got more than 240 songs? No problem. Let iTunes autofill your iPod shuffle and get a new musical experience every time.
World’s Smallest DJ
For the ultimate exercise in uncertainty, let iTunes randomly autofill your iPod shuffle. iTunes creates a playlist that fits your style — and your iPod shuffle’s capacity. For finer control over your portable music collection, set Autofill to sync from specific playlists or add higher-rated songs first. Or turn Autofill off and manually select the songs you want to tote on your iPod shuffle.

I've owned one of these for quite a while. It's very compact, holds s lot of music for it's size, and sounds great. Works great with iTunes, as one would expect it to. Just drag & drop. Features are few, as this is a basic player. Sequential or ramdom playback modes, Play, pause, repeat and good battery life are it's main attractions next to it's size. The only negative is that you must step throug your entire menu in sequence to find a song, and that there is no display. To their credit, though, you may go back to the first song by pressing the play button 3 times. I take mine everywhere. This is a good price, as I paid over $80 when I bought mine new.
TigerDirect has a great reputation with me. I've bought dozens of items, many refurbs, and have only had one issue. A laptop arrived DOA, but TigerDirect had a replacement on my doorstep the next day. That's what I'm writing this review on almost a year later.
A Great buy - highly recommended!

A Closer Look
Features
Controls: iPod shuffle pays due respect to its bigger siblings with a thumb-friendly, circular control pad that puts the “go” in ergonomic. Click the center button to play and pause. Click the outer buttons to move back, skip forward, and adjust volume.
Headphone Jack: iPod shuffle’s headphone jack does double-duty as a dock connector. Flip iPod shuffle upside-down and drop it into the included dock. Then connect the dock to your Mac or Windows PC via USB for a quick sync and charge. And if you’re away from your computer, you can charge on the go with an optional USB adapter.
Clip: Thanks to a sturdy, built-in clip, iPod shuffle goes with anything. Clip it to your sleeve, your lapel, your coin pocket, your backpack. No matter where you wear it, iPod shuffle speaks volumes about your style.
Battery Indicator: Green means go, amber means you’re low, and red means you’ve almost hit zero. But with up to 12 hours of battery life,1 iPod shuffle may keep rocking even longer than you do.
Shuffle Switch: Embrace your inner rebel: Flip the shuffle switch to mix up iPod shuffle’s contents. Then flip the switch again to play your hand-picked playlists and albums in the order you synced them from iTunes.
Stop, Dock, and Sync: iPod shuffle comes with its very own dock that you connect to your Mac or PC via USB. Then, whenever you feel the need for a quick sync, just drop iPod shuffle into the dock and iTunes goes to work.
Fill ’er up fast: iPod shuffle transfers the contents of an entire CD in a flash, so even if you completely refill iPod shuffle, you won’t be waiting very long at all. Of course, total time varies depending on how much music you want to add or replace.
Playback: Skip-free playback
