At American LCG Auctions, which specializes in rare toys, gadgets, and other collectibles for geeks, the original 2007 iPhone sold for the highest price ever – $158,644). In this respect informs Chinese version of MyDrivers. The party started with $10,000 (about 906,000 rubles)
Such a high price of the original unopened iPhone is due to the fact that it is rarely replaced – it has 4 GB of internal memory, not 8 GB. As Mark Montero, founder of LCG Auctions explains, the first 4GB iPhones are about 20% rarer at auctions than the 8GB versions.
According to MyDrivers, 2007 4GB iPhones became so rare because Apple quickly discontinued them. This decision was made because the majority of buyers in the release opted for the 8GB version.
According to MyDrivers, while some smartphones are no longer open and completely unusable at the time of sale at auction, original iPhones without boxes in any form are very valuable collectibles.
