Finally joined the PSP Club

but did I pay too much?
PSP 1000, pretty great condition, very minor scratch on the screen. I ordered a clear hardshell case
PSP case, new battery, charger, PSP volume/ headphone adapter, and 14 games was $125 and with taxes and shipping was $140. 4 of the games don’t work but I haven’t tested them out. Does that happen with some of the UMD games? Any advice on getting those working unless they’re a loss?

I just updated the software to 6.1 and looking at PSPunk to load some games into there. I see a lot of people on here doing that. Was also thinking about loading some music videos and movies I have on my iPod but I think I might need to Handbreak them into a different format?

LMK!

Thank you!

not selling/ not for sell - there was a notification that my post might be taken down for selling so had to make sure to include a note lol

Moto ROKR

I was curious…if the 1st Version of Moto with iTunes would still be compatible to sync music in 2026? I know that 2G isn’t active anymore but curious if anyone has one that they still use and sync music to it? I could find 100 songs to load haha

I couldn’t find any videos on TikTok or YouTube for 2025/ 2026, so if you have a link…LINK ME!

I know it’s not an iPod classic either but still a Classic lol

Thanks!

iPod Classic 5.5 U2 Edition

I picked this up on marketplace for $35
The person said that the battery was okay but turned out it wasn’t great at all lol

No big deal…swapped it out with a new battery and since I was in there I put in 128GB that I found on AliEpxress for $33. (downside is that you have to restore on Windows vs MacOS - does windows restore a different iPodOS? I feel like it looks so different to Mac restore).

Last question: has anyone updated the latest Tahoe 26.5.2 push? I’ve been syncing my iPods today and it’s not recognizing some of them? Did I miss something that’s certain iPods are losing support?

PlayStation Portal - buying preowned

Just wanted some feedback/ info on purchasing a PS Portal. First things first…

I don’t have a PS5
I know that you have to have the top tier streaming service

So I’m trying not to spend a whole lot on it either. I see $120+ marketplaces and pawnshops (which I don’t think are too bad). What are some things that I can check out when buying? What should I test when buying in person on Marketplace and Pawnshops? And anything else I should know before purchasing?

Cool things about it?
Not so cool things about it?
Love it/ Hate it?
All the good and all the bad lol

The 30th edition color way is pretty cool but not too concerned about color way either. The white and black are good too.

Thank you!

iPod Touch 5th Gen

Just picked up a 5th Gen Touch and every looks good, was sent already restored. I was trying to set up my WiFi but it doesn’t connect. Is that normal with these or is there something going on with this iPod?

I usually cycle a restore when I get an iPod just to make sure everything is good but it’s my first iPod with iOS…

My next question…what is the app Cydia?

SHOUT OUT!

I was calling a couple electronic stores in my area looking for SD cards (because Im impatient haha) and spoke to a guy at a place not too far away. Said he also does modifications for himself and for other people and said I should come in so he could check out what I have. We were chatting for a bit and then he’s like hey I have this one that someone brought in for recycle. I was said that’s a nice one of my favorite iPods and he’s like you can take it. Like FR? So shout out to Jacob at the electronic store for an iPod Nano 3rd Gen!

Might need a battery replacement soon…anyone replace the battery on a 3rd Gen Nano?

I brought him my 4th Gen Classic U2 Edition to check out…paid $50 for it which is a little steep for me and has the sad face…so yk what that means…gotta swap out the HD, flash it, might as well swap out the battery. He swears by using SanDisk Ultras to use but has anyone had any luck with that? I usually stick to Samsung Pro/ Evo and no trouble!

I don’t even know how I snagged this for less than $30

I can’t find the link anymore but I should’ve grabbed a couple of these. I was skeptical about it coming in the mail or even it being Apple or it even working. I synced it with my iPod Classic 2nd Gen and my 2015 MacBook Air and worked well. Anyone else been able to find these close to retail?

iPod Shuffle (not working - help!?)

I picked up this iPod HP Shuffle (512MB)
You guys know that these are hard to come by and usually break the bank on resell. I found it at a pretty decent price but it doesn’t work so I guess the price makes sense haha
But anything anyone can give some feedback on since it doesn’t turn on? What could it be?
I have another shuffle that has a bad battery but works when it’s plugged into my laptop or power source and sounds great with music but the HP model doesn’t do anything and sits dead even when plugged in. I’ve left it to charge over night and nothing.

Any ideas would help!
I’m not ready to open it just yet but I might need to and maybe swap out the insides. I like the HP version of iPods.
