It highlights that iPods lost in value an average of 89%. The biggest loser is the third-generation iPod (97.5% of a total of $399). Followed by the second generation (93.3% of a total of $299).

If you have an iPod, don’t sell it, keep it
How much has each iPod depreciated in 20 years? SellCell Data
The average amount that can be recovered for an old iPod (Classic or Nano) is $28. For iPod touches, the average salvage value is around $100. Speaking of the seventh generation, the resale value is the best. A 256GB model might set you back $100.
According to SellCell, the average resale value (all models combined) has remained stable in recent months. Finally, a curious fact is that the average resale value since the iPod discontinuation announcement has increased by 3%.
Instead of selling an iconic product like the iPod, the best idea is to keep it. The salvage value is not ideal.
