Try to borrow it,and play music nonstop for 5-6 hours or more with the headphones or speakers you will use for it,if it still got 50 percent battery or more,it should be ok.

Bad luck,guess you have to ask yourself if you can trust the seller.

I always found Shuffles to have really good battery life. I still have my 1st ben 512MB Shuffle, and it can still go for hours!
Just as long as the seller doesn't seem sketchy, I think you should be fine.

Most iPods work well for years. I still got my first gen iPod classic,even if the battery has shown signs of degradation the last 6-8 months,it's still possible to get at least 50 percent of the playtime it had from the beginning.

I've got one from 2011 and it still gets 15 hours listening time.

Admittedly, I don't use it very often as I have other devices but they are built like tanks and keep on going.
