Why are ipod classics so goddamn expensive?

i swear, the ipod classic costs like $100+ more than the other models. i've always wondered why the hell they cost like $300-400? thats like millions of riel in cambodia... my god 😭

it's so annoying, i've always wanted to get an ipod that can fit my 10-gb song library. but i only have like $10, and i don't get shit from my allowance. 🫩
