Mp3 player with removable storage.

budget : ~2000 INR
something like sansa clip+

very basic player needed, no frills. i dont even care if it just has a tiny screen and plays music, i wont be using it for anything else, anyway.

also, MUST HAVE EXPANDABLE STORAGE, like, removable memory cards (hot swappable is a definite + )

Have you tried amazon?new 4 gb clip plus @ 35$ and 2 gb @ 30$,theyre shipping to India

if i had that sort of money, would i be sitting here?

add to that +10-15 $ in customs, and the price becomes prohibitive to me.

sorry, rather have a good, used piece than waste money on customs. (infact, i'd rather use a beat up piece than give a single paisa to those evil, colonial snakes. not a single paisa)

Chill. Ask Faun, he is having some Sansa. Check his IEM sale thread.

Why do you want a special mp3 player? A Rs.2000 phone can play mp3s as well as has expandable storage.

as KDroid said, sound quality.

and the phone idea is good too, however, most phones dont offer hot-swap feature, and at 2k, i doubt i'd get any sort of quality playback at all.
