unredeemable
Cannot be salvaged
Unredeemable describes something that cannot be saved, recovered, or made good again.
A person may be unredeemable if they're beyond moral reform: The villain was portrayed as utterly unredeemable.
Unredeemable debt cannot be paid off; unredeemable coupons cannot be exchanged.
The word often carries a note of finality—what's unredeemable is permanently lost.
