Default Won't Charge but red light comes on

I have an old blackberry 8310. I just dug it out of some boxes and decided I'd sell it. I tried to plug it in to charge and for some reason the red light will appear like it's trying to charge, but then it will kick off after around 20 seconds. Then about 39 seconds later it will do the same thing. I've tried powering on the phone while the red light is on, but no change. The light will just disappear again. If I let it sit on the charger continuously for about 10 minutes it will finally display a white screen with the hour glass and then just go right back off. I am using both the original charger and a third party charger. Any advice or anything I can do? Thanks!

the battery is probably crapped out.
