I am a huge fan of Apple’s refurb site. The pricing on the nanos and classics are very good, though the touches (in my opinion) aren’t as big a steal if you intend on doing the software upgrades.
Now if only the 2G touches went on the site ... (Yes, I know it will be a while!)

If you have an older (or broken) iPod that you don’t want anymore, you can physically bring it to an Apple store for a 10% discount. That brings the 32gb Touch down to $360.

Though you can’t use a Shuffle for that 10% discount. Only a non-shuffle gets you that discount…trust me, I tried…
