| maps's Full Review: Verge DFP-200 (256 MB) MP3 Player |
I bought this MP3 player a while back and after a couple of months, it stopped working. I realized that what happened was the battery cover broke so the battery had popped out. Turns out there is a MAJOR design flaw with this unit. There is too much pressure on the battery cover which is held down by a thin piece of plastic at each side. I tried returning it to Circuit City and they told me that it had already been past the 30 days and that i would have to speak to the manufacturer. I contacted the manufacturer who told me they had notified CC about the problem and that they would take it back as a recal and give me a new one. After a second attempt trying to return this junk and having CC tell me they knew nothing about this so called recall, I gave up. It has been sitting in my desk ever since. I put some duct tape to secure the battery cover and it works...but who wants to go around with a duct taped MP3??? Dont buy this!
