Hi Evan,
The IPod prior to say touches, 6 generation and before, did not use a USB
cable for power. Instead the cable has a pin structure that reminds me of
the ones older Motorola or lg flip phones used, as in the ones in the mid
to late 2000's.
besides, with a kind nudge, ordering on that site with adaptive technology
and command line Linux is not especially feasible.
In the time I spend seeking an inclusive door, I can just call somewhere
local, walk in with the cable, and get it done.
thanks for the ideas tough.

If you're not in a rush, you might just do better to shop at home.
Search for "ipod charger" at Aliexpress and there are dozens of entries,
most for $4 or less *including shipping*.
Most are cables that will work with any USB-A power source. Here's one
example <https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003608173796.html>.
They all have photos and their descriptions often say specifically what
models they're for. And there's no HST charged for packages this small.
The big downside is the shipping time. Expect two month delivery for the
economy shipping and one month for the premium options. The "estimated
delivery time" presented is a good guideline, but it's usually faster than
that.

First, what was the name of the still existing Toronto electronics surplus
type store, now that above all electronics is gone?
Need to replace the charger for an older apple iPod, and prefer doing this
in person to insure it fits.
And, on an unrelated note,
Any ideas, even if in your closet for a pair of still-connecting-to-a
soundblaster-type-soundcard computer speakers?
My ideal pair would have a headphone jack too so I could listen late at
night without bothering others.
all my serious computer stuff is in storage. Willing to make this an
amazon or comparative buy, if not from your closet, if I know what I am
getting is what I seek.
Thoughts oh princes of gear?
