Today marked the grand opening of a third LA Apple Store in Century City, providing relief for exhausted Apple enthusiasts previously forced to hike the extra five miles to the Grove Apple Store.

The new location boasts of a Genius Bar twice the size of others, which means you’ll be ignored by more Mac Geniuses than ever.

But if you haven’t bought an iPod by now and you’re finally ready to take the plunge, don’t get fleeced for $400 here. Sean from blogging.la points out a guy down the street selling them out of a van on the cheap. Apparently he worked a bulk deal on 12,000 units and he’s ready to pass the savings on to you.
