If you live in the U.S., Shop Goodwill has a 500 up for sale, with black case and charger. A day left on the auction and no one has made a bid.

I can fully relate to the OP.
Recently purchased a PRS-505 new in box. Never owned one, so many in this forum seemed to love them. Thought the battery may be dead, it's not. Added a Glocuscent reading light from Amazon that attaches to the included 505 pleather cover. Lights the 505 up beautifully corner to corner, with varied brightness and hues.
I can see why there was such interest in the PRS-505 at the time. Solid aluminum build. Loads ePub without issue. Looks and feels like something an astronaut might use on the moon. For anyone interested, recommend picking up one on eBay or Shopgoodwill and judging for yourself.
