London, (ANI): katie price a.k.a Jordan has been accused of an i-pod rip off, for she's charging almost double the normal Apple price on some of her personalised iPod products. Kate's iPod models are customised with her own designs and some even contain her KP crest.

The iPod Shuffle normally sells via Apple and other stores for 45 pounds but Kate is selling her own version for 81 pounds. And a katie price 16 GB iPod Nano sells for 208 pounds while the Apple original is just 159 pounds.
