Is iPod classic still available?

I'm not a fan of Apple but I want an iPod classic. Is it available in any stores?

This model has been discontinued for eight years. Even if you found a second-hand one from somewhere you would be likely to have difficulty syncing it: it probably wouldn't sync to present-day systems and the connector is also obsolete. You can still get iPod Touches, including reconditioned, from Apple - for the moment.

FWIW the latest versions of iTunes and Music/Finder on Catalina or later are able to sync to iPod classic. The danger with buying second hand is that you cannot reliably assess the state of the hard drive before purchase, some may not be in the best of health.
