Values soaring on old Apple "Classic" iPods

One year after Apple discontinues the "classic" iPod... values soaring on old iPods

Do you have an old iPod sitting in your dresser drawer somewhere?

Don't get rid of it: it may soon be worth a lot of money!

Classic is now a Classic

The newspaper The Guardian first reported that apple's iPod Classic is now selling for 4 times its original price in some eBay listings.

The classic -- which holds up to 40,000 songs -- was discontinued last year, because most people now put music on their phones.

But the big iPod is now soaring in value as a result, leading some tech bloggers to wonder if Apple made a mistake by killing it off.

iPhones do not hold anywhere near the music library of the big iPod, and many people don't want all that music on their phone.

Prices on eBay are doubling the original price. It's not just old Apple technology either -- flip phones are making a comeback.
