Thanks Sheva... I'll appreciate it if you could PM me the
address. However, as I mentioned, I'm kinda wary of refurbished
goods... and to be honest, buying them from Sim Lim makes me all
the more wary. I know that the dealers there are mostly honest, but
I've had a few run-ins with a few unscrupulous ones as well.
But I don't mind checking out your contacts, either. 
Anyway, I just got back from Creative HQ at Jurong East. They have
offered to do a one-to-one swap, but they said that they're out of
stock, and it will only arrive in 1-2 weeks.
Once again, I'm a little suspicious... any chance that they might
swap my spoilt player for a refurbished one? Or am I being a little
paranoid here?
