Whether there will be any takers is a whole other story but it’s not unheard of for people to pay exorbitantly high amounts for items considered rare or collectible. Just this month, the first-generation iPhone, which came out in 2007, was sold for $190,372.80, 30 times its retail price. Another unit sold for $63,000 at an online auction earlier this year.
In 2020, people were selling iPhones with the Fortnite game for up to $10K after it was removed from the App Store by Apple and there were no hopes of it coming back. Similarly, phones with the game Flappy Bird were being offered for up to $5,000 on eBay after the developer removed it from Apple and Google’s app stores.
