iPod cable price arbitrage

Had to buy the gold plated BMW iPod cable cos the standard white cable that comes with your iPod doesn't work with the new iPod touch. For those who are interested, after some research I've found out that its because the new touch doesn't allow you to enable disk use, and you need that for the white iPod cable to work.

Anyway, the gold plated BMW iPod cable worked, but I found that when I bought it from the parts department at the back of Autoclassic I paid $134 ... instead of the $170 odd from the accessories/lifestyle store at the front of Autoclassic.

$134 is still a rip for an iPod cable, but its better than paying $170. Anyway, if anyone is looking to get the BMW iPod cable, save some money and go to the parts department!
