I recently lost my Zune Brownie that I have come to love as a member of my family. I took me a couple of weeks to deal with the loss of my beloved Zune but I am back on track. I ordered a Red Zune 80G (I prefer to say eighty gee, a mere gig sounds demeaning) with custom artwork by Nobumasa Takahashi who is a Japanese artist known for his graffiti.
The total cost after the custom artwork (add + $15.00) and the tax was $280.89, an early birthday present for myself this month (June 20).
Although I have no idea how long it takes FedEx to ship from Zhuhai, China to Fort Lauderdale, Florida. I've never been there but I feel as if I had been in the streets thanks to Goolge Maps and the Demilitarized Zones of China.
Check out all of the artists showcased on Zune Originals in the Artist Series:
Not all of the artist websites could be found or validated, however you can look through the artist tattoos available for the Zune at Zune Originals or from the Zune.net site located here.

congrats on the purchase. Me being in canada, i had my brother in law in North Carolina order the zune 80 orignal the day the 80 gb orignal site would allow orders to be takin. I remeber fedex said it would arrivr two tuesdays after that date….it arrived a whole 7 days early….lets hope you get some of that speedy service eh! 2 days till canadian launch….time for some socialing with others (i hope)
Thanks for the Congrats Phil. I’m waiting for the Canadian release too, trying to find out any information I can. I want to see what will be the differences between the US and CAN software or website features.
well, ceasar has said and its also been repeated many times that the marketplace wont come to canada until later this year :(….the canadain website is actually up and fully functional as far as i can tell, for a while i couldnt make a zune card or anything but for the last little bit ive been able to. So in the last month ive gone from using my registerd USA hotmail accouint to my candain hotmail account seamlessly, i notice no differencem exceopt for the missing marketplace tab in the software.
i cant wait for them to hit stores, i need to replace my premium headphones…2 more days!
hey it comes pretty fast.
i got my zune replaced and they shipped it from china.
Im sure your order will take longer making, rather than shipping. For shipment for mine it took about 4days from CHINA!! they ship fedex express but im concerned about the order that you made. It possibly might take them a while to engrave since Microsoft is always in a slow motion..
The engraving, probably takes no more then an hour, id say 30min…these arnt hand ingravings, then ingrave the plate and slap it on the zune you bought.
The Zune shipment is moving pretty fast. In no time it was shipped from one part of China to the other, probably on bicycle cause it took 24 hours. It came into the US via Alaska, jumped to Indiana, now its sitting somewhere between Tennessee and here… Yeah!!! Less than 1,500 miles to go. It should be here by next week Wed.
I got the Zune Originals Zune 80 the first day it was available, and it arrived within a few days. Like Tim, it was about four days. I was pleasantly surprised.
