A factory-sealed, first-generation iPhone appeared on eBay this week with a wallet-draining price of $10,000. First sold in 2007, the 8GB iPhone shown above is now being touted as a ”rare collectors vintage box set.” Uh, OK. It’s nutty to hawk a single piece of 5-year-old technology as either a box set or vintage, but we’ll give the iPhone seller due respect for his marketing moxie.
The $10,000 iPhone has piqued interest on Twitter and various tech sites, so we decided to see what other pieces of “vintage” tech are selling for on eBay. Here’s a list of really old and not-so-old pieces of gadgetry that are currently up for sale. Be prepared for sticker shock!
