Factory-sealed first generation iPhone selling on Ebay for $10,000
The original iPhone’s unsubsidized price tag of $600 on contract was the subject of major irritation for many early adopters. If you thought that was bad, you should see what one Ebay seller thinks it’s worth only 5 years later. Samsonbible, a top rated seller, is selling what he calls a “rare collector’s choice” for $10,000.
One thing I’m definitely questioning, do you think he used enough exclamation points?
STUNNING RARE COLLECTORS CHOICE APPLE iPHONE 1ST GENERATION 8GB AND FACTORY SEALED..!!! YOU ARE SEEING A PIECE OF HISTORY..!!!! THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE COLLECTORS SHOW PIECE..!!!! THIS WOULD BE A CROWN JEWEL FOR ANY COLLECTION..!!!! AMAZING FACTORY SEALED BOX..!!! UNOPENED AND THE COLLECTORS DREAM APPLE iPHONE..!!!!!!
THIS IS OFFERED FOR A LIMITED TIME….. !!!!!!! HAPPY BIDDING…!!!!
If I’m honest, I can see this working in 10-15 years time if it’s kept in its original condition as it is now. But, I personally purchased a first generation iPhone in used condition for £80 ($120 roughly) back in May this year. So, unless the polyurethane packaging is somehow created from the weaving together nano-threads of Saffron and Gold, I’m doubting anyone would be stupid enough to stump up the 10k asking price.
Please, don’t do it.
