(computer bell blips) (upbeat techno music) – Hey men, just how are you all doing? If you'' re brand-new right here, welcome,
my name is Krazy Ken, and also today we'' re gon na speak about something that'' s been buzzing on the Interwebs just recently, Eggs'' s Apple 1 apple iphone 12 Pro situation, which purportedly ships with an item of an Apple 1 computer board inside of the case. Since'' s an exceptionally rare and beneficial item of computer history, to ensure that ' s seems quite insane, however it resembles Eggs has done some crazy stuff prior to, so it'' s their MO. Numerous various other YouTubers have covered things similar to this before, and also MKBHD has most definitely discussed this stuff prior to. Recently, he discussed their case, which has a piece of the moon built into it too, so Caviar'' s been doing this things for some time. I constantly was a bit skeptical regarding their products. I'' m not an expert on things like gold and also all of that stuff, so I can'' t truly tell if that'' s fake or otherwise, and also'I ' m definitely not a master on the moon.I can'' t refute that ' s a. piece of the moon in that case. I don ' t understand just how any one of. that stuff functions up until currently. You see, this product, that ' s a little bit more in my wheelhouse. Instantly, this item is phony. So don'' t go investing the. near$ 10,000 it sets you back on it. I imply, if you still wan na get one and also claim you have an uncommon.
item of history with you, sure, however just maintain in mind, this is phony, and we will study the information soon. But initially, I wanted to chat concerning what kinda tripped my uncertainties initially. Actually, the things that stumbled my bull (buzzer buzzes).
detector was the principle itself. To begin with, why would you ruin such a rare as well as important.
item of computer history simply to make an iPhone instance? And also 2nd, if the board really was actual and you sufficed up into items, you simply lost a lots of value there.Apple 1 computers
cost numerous thousands. of dollars at auction. Some rise to such as 800, $900,000, so why would you break this thing apart and market phone cases? On the Delicacy internet site, they say there'' s just nine available, and they cost $9,990 each. So if you increase that together that'' s$ 89,910 gross in sales, which is nothing contrasted.
to just how much you might get at a public auction for an Apple 1. Now to be fair, there is likewise an Apple 1 Lite model, which costs 4,990, as well as Relish says they have.
49 of those available. So that equates to $244,510, which is a lot closer to what one might get at a public auction for a legit Apple 1. However it still doesn'' t seem worth the hassle you would certainly need to encounter as a company trying to market loads of product. So once again, financially,.
this makes no sense. And Eggs kinda proved.
this already by themselves. In their product video,.
they reveal how much money Apple 1 computers can go for at auction, so they sort of currently.
did the mathematics for us, as well as they showed us why.
this product makes no sense from a service and money standpoint.So those were both
things that at first tripped my BS detector. However there ' s more to it. Why specifically is this a counterfeit? Allow ' s take a look. The'following warning were the product pictures on the Delicacy internet site. They resemble CGI renderings, which definitely doesn ' t. help prove any type of legitimacy'.
Also, their item video clip reveals designs which are not regular. with the website pictures.
So those points were making. me a whole lot more questionable, so I was
bewaring below. Yet something that made. me much more suspicious were the images of the physical board that they posted on their web site. The Apple 1 board on their internet site has not part solder to it. Throughout all of the research I'' ve done I have never ever seen an Apple 1 board, a genuine Apple 1 board, without the elements on it.And in truth, I understand an.
proprietor of a real Apple 1, Jimmy Grewal, and I asked him concerning this. He actually additionally brought.
up this worry on Twitter, as well as we spoke a little bit, and also he stated the exact same thing. He was like, “” I have never ever seen a board without the components on it already. To make sure that led me to believe that this was just a.
replica Apple 1 board. There'' s a number of ' em available. Jimmy sent me an ebay.com listing.
of an Apple 1 replica board, as well as to me, the board.
looked similar to the one Relish carried their website. As well as not just that, however some of the images.
on the Relish site are precise duplicates of the.
images from the eBay listing. Yet they had some masks and also other photo adjustments applied. So it'' s reasonable to say that. Delicacy simply bought this board, this replica board off eBay, as well as they'' re selling these.
overpriced iPhone cases claiming it'' s a genuine Apple 1 board, although it'' s not. Now, I can ' t verify the authenticity or the absence of authenticity. for Delicacy ' s other items, however if this one is phony, in my opinion, I believe it ' s reasonable to say that 90% of their various other. stuff is fake,
too.One more note, Jimmy is. speaking to another professional to assist verify that.
this is a replica board, and also in the first conversations with him, the professional did say he'' s 100% certain this is a reproduction board, however he'' s only about 90% sure this board coincides.
board as the eBay listing. I'' m quite sure it is, yet we'' ll allowed him obtain to the last 10%. He was claiming he can definitely discover if he was able to get his hands on a fragment of the board, however I extremely question Caviar.
is mosting likely to release that.So between the 3 people, if we can get in touch with Delicacy and also they can send out an item out, which they most likely won ' t( laughs), we ' ll appearance right into it some more. So the odds are slim we ' ll. obtain anything out of that, but we
' ll see. Overall, in regards to. the scam-busting episodes

So simply keep assuming critically, maintain fact-checking, and also you'' ll live a beautiful life.
