I don't know which one came with the wall charger. They unpacked them when I wasn't around, and they seem to not remember themselves. :)

I am thinking about getting this player and this seems to be a confusing issue -- so there is definitely NOT an AC wall charger included, right????

Hi, I purchased the Creative Zen Vision: M and received it yesterday. I did NOT receive an AC wall charger. Even though it is a pain, charging through the USB port takes 2-3 hours (and it charges when you are docked, I leave it plugged in between transfers). Hope that helps.

When I purchased my Zen 7 months ago mine too came with a Wall-Charger. It's weird some that didn't.

just to make this very clear you do NOT need a wall charger with the Creative player. The USB is more than adequate and battery life is 14 hours (of actual use). I love love love this player. They don't nickle and dime you to death with accesories either like the ipod folks do

It does not come with a wall charger. It only includes the Usb cable. I would order one along with your purchase of a Creative Zen M also purchase a case for it so it won't get scratched up.

I purchased my Zen in early July and it came with the wall charger. A week later the price went down and they stopped sending the wall charger in the packaging. So, no it doesn't come with one. But you can purchase the wall charger here on Amazon for $15 or go onto e-bay, they always have something that you could use.

I ordered two in early august for my two sons. I ordered them in two colors, green and black so they could tell them apart.One of them came with a charger and the other did not.Note to those asking, you do NOT NEED an extra charger, the Zen Vision M charges from USB. however, the seperate charger can charge the batteries faster.With some MP3 players, plugging them in renders them useless. I.e. either you're charing via USB and can't play music, or you aren't charging and then can play music.The Zen is not limited in that way. As long as you don't have the transfer program up and running, or don't have it mounted as a hard drive, you can plug it into your USB port and still use it.

The price has gone down by $31.00 (was $299.99) which probably accounted for the missing AC wall charger.

Do you have to buy something extra now to charge the mp3 player, or can you still charge it with the included stuff?

Jessica, I had to same concerns. However, since I was more concern with having the extra battery, I didn't mind plugging it in the wall. I would have been nice to get the car charger adapter as advertised in the picture. (this is false advertising)

The wall charger came with mine. ( no car charger, although they can be purchased separately)

Mine came with a wall plug that hooked directly to the battery. You have to remove the battery for it to charge but it's not that bad.

Yes, it came with a wall charger that you put the battery into to charge. So far it has worked very well.

If it is purchased with a car or truck yes it comes with 2 chargers,if you are only buying just the battery itself,no it does not come with wall charger!

No. It actually comes in the refurb boxes. When they say its "new" I'm not quite sure if its brand new. It does come with a wall charger.

Ours did not come with a wall charger either. We have not tried to buy one. We did purchase lots of batteries but have not had to change the batteries for over a month. We play with it every evening. Our 2 year old loves it!

I have. it came with a charger. it looks liken to a very small extension cord. male n female end. 1 end inserts into unit the other end insert in house wall elect outlet. Mine arrived already charged. If mine didn't arrive with I would request part be mail at no out of pocket cost to me. to be simple, I would return. Thank You PS refund and/are replace. If I were where he is I would think that unit had been used, re-boxed and resale. ( did you tell him it had been used before sold to him )

It does not come with the wall USB charger but does come with the cord. Wall USB chargers are a dime a dozen and most of us have them sitting around in the junk drawer. I love the charger.

Yes it comes with a wall charger. I brought this item for my ex-husband and he loves it.

Its noti have had mine for almost a year and recharge it directly from the wall with the included charger....i guess unless you run at max and want extra batteries but i have never had that concern
