all right in the enthusiast globe of Classics typically old items of tech aren'' t really all that intriguing like who intends to acquire an apple iphone 6 right currently the top most searched for piece of tech in The Collector world is the manufacturing facility sealed unopened original apple iphone now enjoyable reality when we went to go make that uh assessing each and every single apple iphone video clip we did need to go back and also discover and buy a functioning version of every solitary iPhone ever made and also the more back you go the more difficult it is to discover a working version and also we eventually did discover a couple like these three original used however still working apples iphone from 2007. maybe it'' s due to the fact that they ' re 16 years old they are really attack yet the truth that they ' re still functioning is sort of a miracle discovering one that is original still sealed never ever been opened never also been touched by human hands or seen by human eyes is very unusual it'' s so uncommon that'I ' ve really seen many individuals get scammed by this an unopened iPhone is so uncommon and also valuable that people will actually secure a made use of original iPhone and sell it online as an initial and male YouTubers have actually fallen sufferer to this spending countless dollars to try to obtain their hands on what they thought was going to be an unblemished iPhone it'' s just crazy that people go out scamming like this yet hey the distinction in value between just any old initial apple iphone as well as a brand-new sealed unblemished apple iphone is enormous and it'' s well worth the price of the cellophane and the warm gun and also the effort required to make an old apple iphone appear brand-new just about 6 million first gen iPhones were ever offered therefore of program the variety of unopened ones will just ever go down from below as well as it'' s kind of this unusual video game of attempting to identify when their value has actually come to a head and also checking out the numbers it really seems like it has actually come to a head so one actually sold at an auction in February this year for over sixty thousand dollars which was a document as well as the greatest we'' ve ever seen then an additional one showed up at an auction in March a month later that a person went for fifty 5 thousand dollars after that there was one with this fortunate you sticker label much more unusual they probably believed they were going to get the most money for it but it in fact rose at an auction a few weeks earlier in Chicago as well as somebody scooped it for just forty thousand bucks I think they obtained a little bit of a price cut because that individual was me as well as this is the bundle it came in uh since that public auction home was not fooling around it was really kind of surreal winning this auction simply for the document it'' s not such as a typical auction site like ebay.com where you just click a button and also you win this is a real auction like a live streamed video clip of a man with a gavel going to get 6000 over right here 6500 in the front row we got 6 800 on the phone until we hear seven thousand 7 thousand right here and it simply keeps going and also you can take part from anywhere in the globe so they were experiencing a lot of stuff and the iPhone was product number 203 and so when they reached 203 I logged right into the website as well as I had my preliminary deal put which was the minimum of 32 000 the components have actually been x-rayed verified going once going twice marketed to the on-line prospective buyer going on I simply won like that was the minute when I committed to uh figuring this entire thing out therefore the remainder of the price was simply uh sales tax obligation and also uh bidding costs and shipping which seems like an actually great time to say that this video clip is sponsored by you there'' s a great deal of points that we could have spent forty thousand dollars on like electronic camera devices as an example yet we made a decision to do this therefore we'' ve revived the MKBHD matte black wallet it was incredibly minimal version before but they were incredibly popular so we'' re bringing them back in a slightly less limited edition at shop.mkbhd.com they'' re also really unwell and now I can state that this video clip is enabled by my wallet the web link is below please buy one have I made a substantial blunder just one way to discover yet uh it'' s time to dig into this gigantic crate [Music] so my largest concern as I get involved in this is just how do I validate if this is actually brand-new and Untouched by human hands like on the auction site we did see that there were uh there were some X-rays as well as the x-rays are cool and also they make it really feel really main however all we truly understand by seeing those x-rays is that the devices are in fact in package we put on'' t recognize if they ' re untouched oh and after that the various other aspect of this is when you when you put in a serial number on like Apple'' s Mosaic uh you can see that it is not signed up so whoever got this phone originally which I think they said the name of the initial owner that brought it in uh never ever registered it it was never used it was never triggered but that doesn'' t imply it was never opened up so this this is quite uh a count on exercise many layers this resembles a Russian doll of OG Technology products currently this is the one where I need to be mindful I'' m an expert individuals it'' s fine this is fine there it is that is the product packaging of this brand name new but also not so new original iPhone you can see it'' s got a bit of Browning around it I'' m not as well put off by that as well as several of the posts that I check out online after I got it were stating primarily this break here in the edge as well as uh a few other factors are potentially why it went a bit reduced than the record sixty thousand buck cost it likewise has this upside down fortunate you sticker every short article that I'' ve read that I ' ve sought out concerning this lucky you sticker nobody appears to recognize what it is it'' s sort of confusing due to the fact that it is very uncommon various other original covered iPhones wear'' t have this sticker label I also asked individuals at Apple they put on'' t understand what it indicates there are many things I believe people forgotten the original iPhone one is it didn'' t have an App Shop so it was simply the applications that were on it and 2 you couldn'' t established a wallpaper with the very first version of iOS so everyone'' s iPhone looked specifically the very same so with no additional ado okay this is the minute that all the value just went from forty thousand to uh I don'' t know depends upon just how great the condition of the phone is however the cling wrap this 16 years of age it it does have a smell oh fancy so they had foam in the top of the boxes as well as this is the method it turned up encountering you on the top wow I believe that is in fact brand-new simply a little thing simply a well developed little Factory seal point oh this is more difficult than a this happened in Justine'' s video this is a difficult screen protector to take off okay so there'' s a little piece of plastic tough plastic really then there is the records signed developed by Apple in California I actually wear'' t know if there ' s a sticker this is now all new territory for me despite it being old oh there'' s more there ' s a there ' s a whole microfiber inside that claims iPhone on it intriguing fingertips these are all the uh the tips for making use of and also operating your apple iphone in 2007 how to establish a passcode how to send a message how to browse the web and uh oh the sticker labels are a bit Askew is that how they were can you see those just how they'' re among them is inverted as well as slanted the various other one'' s appropriate side up and slanted so it type of it type of view objective yet additionally looks various since they'' re normally lined up now there is a lot more this is what I was speaking about this is what was x-rayed by the auction residence simply to verify that they'' re below but they ' re all additionally still sealed in the box so USB a wall brick you additionally have a 30 pin dock with an earphone jack out on the back this behaves let'' s open those allow ' s open up the dock [Songs] that is new wow it would certainly resemble that uh you also obtain two more points you get a 30 pin USB a to 30 pin charging cable television as well as data wire you connect this right into iTunes plug it into your computer system and earpods this was back in the famous days of well the silhouette commercials and also the white headphones and connecting the wire right into your phone that really feels very legitimate I don'' t think it ' s mosting likely to turn on however I ' m gon na hold the power switch anyhow this is just one of those things where like it'' s a 16 years of age battery of course it'' s not going to switch on that would certainly be a quite red flag really if it did boot if it fine it doesn'' t that ' s excellent is this this all simply seems like exactly what they didn'' t want me to do when I got this initial iphone take a look at the distinction between that all new fresh item of metal versus one that somebody was out making use of in their day-to-day lives so while I wait on this a bit to simply possibly take a minute to charge yet I seem like I can claim that with all that I understand and all the study that I'' ve done entering into this acquisition it feels like this one is legitimately all new and unopened if any individual can tell me if any individual recognizes or if any person that'' s watching this operated in Apple retail around the moment in 2007 when the apple iphone was released what happens if this originated from Apple or if this is something totally different I would love to recognize since that would certainly be actually intriguing there'' s one tale online about just how it might have been like a holiday sticker label who knows all right we'' re back in fact I ' m back the following day hence the different t-shirt and also the hairstyle yet overlook that uh and also I wish to go over every little thing that I discovered since we currently have actually gotten the iPhone to activate as well as I am persuaded that it is an unopened original and also I likewise learned some things regarding the iPhone 2.
So first off I am persuaded that it'' s an unopened initial due to the fact that of this diminish wrap being very old as a result of the shrink cover that was around the iPhone that was inside package being excellent looking and also even the reality that it'' s actually remarkably hard to get a 1.0 apple iphone to get past this uh iTunes boot display if you actually download an old version of iTunes and plug it in and attempt to trigger it you can obtain remarkably much as well as still not really obtain it to activate that all sort of lens Support to the truth that we could obtain other apples iphone to turn on due to the fact that they had later on versions of software long story short this is as much as we obtained with it and also it does transform on and also work the odd thing that we located was top this is the initial brick as well as the initial wire that came with the iPhone we plugged them in over night we returned in the early morning as well as it still didn'' t turn on however when we changed the block as well as not the wire it really began to bill second point to discover is there was no SIM card ejector tool with the apple iphone at all yet when you do get a SIM card injector device and also pop open up the SIM card tray on top you will certainly locate that there is a gigantic SIM card included with the apple iphone so this was a at T reduce singular special when it appeared and check out the size of this SIM card this is the uh the original size SIM card back in the day before micro and also nano SIM cards yet then yeah I did not bear in mind that it shipped with this dock till I did my research as well as I additionally didn'' t understand it would certainly deliver with a black microfiber and these Apple stickers that are a little Askew as well as this brand name new beautiful apple iphone is now worth substantially much less than what I paid for it which'' s all right to ensure that ' ll be it ideally I put on'' t remorse this thanks so much for watching and once again if anyone recognizes what the fortunate you sticker means definitely hit us up in the comments or on Twitter speak to you men in the next one peace [Music] [Music] international [Praise]
