A first generation iPhone fetches $63,000 at auction | CNN Business

Dubbed a “first-edition” device by auctioneer LCG Auctions, the box had never been opened. The original iPhone cost $599 and offered early Apple adopters a 3.5-inch screen with a 2-megapixel camera, plus 4 GB and 8 GB storage options, internet capabilities and iTunes. It had no app store, ran on a 2G network and was exclusive to AT&T’s network. Bidding on this phone began online earlier this month at $2,500. All told, there were 27 bids on it, according to LCG’s website.

An appraiser on the show valued the phone at $5,000 at that time. Another unopened first-generation iPhone like Green’s sold for over $39,000 in a listing also by LCG Auctions that closed in October. The iPhone changed the way billions of people around the world communicate, make payments, do their jobs, take photos and even how they wake up in the morning. It killed dozens of industries and gave life to many more.

Imagine how better the products would be if Steve was still around.

I’ve still got one, not shrink wrapped but boxed etc! Bit of history!

I have two just for £60 per each.

Then, do not open it up 😅

I still have mine sitting in a box.

Can walk with legs?

Sounds about right with inflation

Forget to add its brand new & sealed to the headline? Of course! it increases click-bait rates..

Damn! Why did I trade mine in . . .
