( computer bell blips)( upbeat techno music) – Hey guys, how are you all doing? If you’re brand-new here, welcome, my specify is Krazy Ken, and today we’re gonna talk about something that’s been buzzing onthe Interwebs recently, Caviar’s Apple 1 iPhone 12 Pro case, who had reportedly ships with a piece of an Apple 1 computerboard inside of the case. Now that’s an incredibly rare and valuable patch of computer autobiography, so that’s sounds pretty insane, but it looks like Caviar hasdone some insane stuff before, so it’s their MO. Many other YouTubers havecovered nonsense like this before, and MKBHD has definitelytalked about this trash before. Recently, he has spoken about their action, which has a piece of themoon built into it as well, so Caviar’s been doingthis material for a while.I always was a bit skepticalabout their makes. I’m not an expert on thingslike golden and all of that material, so I can’t really tellif that’s fake or not, and I’m obviously nota captain on the moon. I can’t disprove that’s apiece of the moon in that case. I don’t know how any ofthat stuff drives up to now. You experience, this commodity, that’s a little bit more in my wheelhouse. Right off the bat, this concoction is phony. So don’t go spending thenear $10,000 it expenses on it. I represent, if you still wanna get one and suppose you have a rarepiece of history with you, sure, but only keep in mind, this is fake, and we will dive into the details soon. But first, I wanted to talk about what kinda junketed my doubts at first.Really, any issues that jaunted my patrolman( buzzer chatters) detector was the notion itself. First off, why would you destroy such a rare and valuablepiece of computer autobiography exactly to make an iPhone case? And second, if the human rights committee absolutely was real and you cut it up into pieces, you just lost a ton of value there. Apple 1 computers sell for hundreds of thousandsof dollars at auctioneer. Some go up to like 800, $900,000, so why would you break this thing apart and sell phone cases? On the Caviar website, they say there’s only nine available, and they sell for $ 9,990 each. So if you multiply that together that’s $89,910 gross in auctions, which is nothing comparedto how much you could get at an auction for an Apple 1. Now to be fair, “theres been” an Apple 1 Lite model, which sells for 4,990, and Caviar says they have4 9 of those found. So that equals $244,510, which is a lot closer to what one may get at an auction for a legit Apple 1. But it still doesn’t seem worth the hassle you would have to face as a company trying to sell dozens of product.So again, financially, this compiles no smell. And Caviar kinda provedthis already by themselves. In their concoction video, they show how much coin Apple 1 computers can go for at auction, so they kind of alreadydid the math for us, and they showed us whythis product acquires no smell from a business and finance standpoint. So those were the two things that initially tripped my BS detector. But there’s more to it. Why accurately is this a fake? Let’s have a look. The next red flag were the commodity photos on the Caviar website. They look like CGI interpretings, which unquestionably doesn’thelp prove any legality. Likewise, their concoction video pictures designs which are not consistentwith the website photos. So those things were makingme a lot more questionable, so I was being cautious here.But something that mademe even more questionable were the photos of the physical board that they posted on their website. The Apple 1 card on their website has not component solder to it. Throughout all of the research I’ve done I have never seen an Apple 1 card, a real Apple 1 committee, without the components on it. And in fact, I know anowner of a real Apple 1, Jimmy Grewal, and I asked him about this. He actually likewise broughtup such concerns on Twitter, and we talked a bit, and he said the same thing. He was like, “I have never seen a board without the components on it already. So that produced me to believe that this was just areplica Apple 1 committee. There’s a bunch of’ em out there. Jimmy sent me an eBay listingof an Apple 1 replica board, and to me, the boardlooked just like the one Caviar had on their website.And not only that, but some of the photoson the Caviar website are accurate copies of thephotos from the eBay listing. But they had some cover-ups and other photo manipulations exploited. So it’s fair to say thatCaviar only bought the board members, this replica board off eBay, and they’re selling theseoverpriced iPhone cases professing it’s a real Apple 1 timber, even though it’s not. Now, I can’t confirm the legitimacy or the absence of legitimacyfor Caviar’s other concoctions, but if this one is fake, in my opinion, I think it’s fair to say that 90% of their otherstuff is forge, too. One more indicate, Jimmy istalking to another professional to help confirm thatthis is a replica board, and in the initial conversations with him, the expert did say he’s 100% sure this is a replica board, but he’s only about 90% sure this board is the sameboard as the eBay listing. I’m pretty sure it is, but we’ll make him get to the final 10%. He was saying he could unquestionably catch out if he was able to get his hands on a scrap of the board, but I most incredulity Caviaris going to release that. So between the three of us, if we can get in touch with Caviar and they can send a piece out, which they probably won’t( screams ), we’ll look into it some more. So the odds are slim we’llget anything out of that, but we’ll determine. Overall, in regards tothe scam-busting episodes I do on Crazy Ken’s Tech Talk, I time wanna help younurture your pig detector so you can help yourself and your best friend from inadvertently spend too much money on a make that’s justsurrounded in deceitful marketing.So precisely impede reputing critically, preserve fact-checking, and you’ll live a beautiful animation. And if you haven’t checkedout MKBHD’s other videos in regards to Caviar, do check those out, and hey, hopefully he can see this one that I just made, more,’ generate hey, that’d be pretty awesome. And if you’d like to check out the other scam-busting episodes I did, feel free to check’ em out here, and feel free to subscribe for more tech bouts every week. And if you picture any other fishy makes you wanna send my route, feel free to precisely cast mea tweet or a DM on Twitter. I’m reasonably active on Twitter, so that’s a good way to get a hold of me. And hey, if you liked this occurrence, you know what to do. Thanks for fastening withme, catch the crazy, and pass it on.( upbeat techno music)( computer bell blips ).
