That's insane. I saw MKBHD's video recently where he bought one for around 40k and found that the originals can't fully boot due to the age of the installed firmware. I can't believe they're going up in price so fast, considering the value seems to be entirely in the packaging.
How true and how ridiculous is that?! At least my Pop Vinyls & Star Trek Hot-wheels collectibles are still functional toys if they are ever removed from their packaging.

In case someone thinks they have a goldmine sitting in a drawer or closet somewhere

That's still ridiculously overpriced. It's not even that old.

Yeah, this is crazy. Didn’t expect to say this, but it looks like MKBHD got a good deal on that iPhone 😅
