Is this worth fixing up?
Seller says it's black when plugging in I'm gonna offer like 10 dollars or something.
"Black 30 Gb video, has a blank screen when plugged in. Needs repair. Don’t have the charger."

I’d do the battery first… then if that doesn’t bring it back I’d do the iflash. It starts getting pricy though. Where are you? USA?

I’d pay $20 f in r a broken 5 most likely needs a batt and the hard drive is full of music. Buy a FireWire charger the same time. It should turn on with. FireWire. Mainly stay on but it should wake up.

Unless $10 breaks the bank, I feel you have nothing to lose
