      I've never been the type to keep things sealed. I wanna play with them! That's what they're made for! Besides, when you just keep stuff in the box, it means you're going to just sell them later, which means you aren't even in it to enjoy them. Besides, because so many people hang onto in-package copies of stuff to sell later, they aren't going up in price the way they used to.

It's supposed to give more 'weight' or seriousness to what's being discussed. In the use case above, they're saying the ipod that was opened wasn't "just old" but "an ancient artifact" of sorts (obviously elaborating since the iPod is only 20ish years old, and a real artifact would be more like 20 centuries old)

    I dunno if you read your comments but I wanted to give you a quick thank you. I lost one of my nugs recently (My Shrek Green 4th gen one, RIP Pistachio) and needed a replacement, but all the ones I found online were super expensive and weren't even guaranteed to work. I'd never thought to look in Cashies because all the ones around here seem to sell instruments and nothing else, but I thought I'd give it a look and lo and behold I found a 3rd gen nano in the case, scratched up and clearly had been sitting there for a while. The guy let me arm it to check it worked and it went on, the wheel worked so I brought it home! Charged it up and it holds charge like a champ, it connected immediately to my computer and boom. And it only cost me £18! So yeah, thank you for showing me the magic that is Cashies and saving me about £40!

The monochrome 4th gen. classic is easily my favorite physical design.

      Honestly I don’t see how designing packaging that has to have a bunch of stuff printed off for it and has to be shipped probably separately and otherwise for everything else you used to get in the box is any better for the environment. If they included the adapter and headphones they wouldn’t need to print separate boxes off for those.

      You can be not wasteful and also include accessories. The wasteful part is all the little plastic bits you immediately throw away.

    Hey man! Really like your content. Your aussie way of explaining things really resonates with my brain. I've been looking for a comprehensive review of the Kraken V3 headset from Razer (the base V3s, not the hypersense ones) but I couldn't find one that suits my taste.
    I've already bought a pair of KZ ZSN Pros because of you, so I trust your judgement haha
    Would you consider doing a review of them (maybe in a second gaming headsets video if you need to)? Would really help me out! Thanks for always bringing us amazing content, mr. Dankpod!

      Don't feel too bad, iPods look the same whether they're a day old or a year old. Put it in your pocket without a case and it's over, scratched to hell and back. Even with a case it'll still get scuffed.

    That’s also my favorite “classic” iPod model, 4th gen with monochrome display. Mine also has flash card inside connected with adapter (64GB). It even has HP logo on back. Never owned one brand new, fixed broken ones from eBay. When an iPod just played audio, no photos, no videos, no apps…

    The "splotches" on the screen are most likely due to the battery starting to expand and its pushing the lcd into the plastic cover. As crazy as it sounds it might be worth replacing it before it inevitably breaks the lcd.
