Anyway, hopefully this made my question a little clearer so i dont look like a dumbass.
I have no idea about whether or not it's common in Zunes. It could well be a sign that there's a loose connection elsewhere in it which is creating high resistance or a circuit when it's meant to be off which is draining the battery, rather than it being a dodgy battery itself. I'd have thought that as long as you got it from a reputable retailer they'd be required to state that a product you're buying is refurbished before purchase, so you may well have just gotten a faulty product and you'll need to claim on the manufacturers warranty.
