I heard that used iPod touches could have bad battery and it's hard to get a new battery for it because it involves soldering. It is really expensive or very hard to change the battery?

Did it with my iPod Touch 6G - not really rocket science as the 3 solder points are quite large.
You should however have at least some experience in soldering.
The price of a replacement battery (non-Apple) is under 10 $.
