all right in the collection agency world of Standards generally old pieces of tech aren'' t actually all that interesting like who intends to acquire an iPhone 6 today the leading most searched for piece of tech in The Collector world is the manufacturing facility sealed unopened original apple iphone currently enjoyable reality when we mosted likely to go make that uh evaluating every solitary iPhone video we did need to go back and locate and purchase a working variation of every single apple iphone ever before made and the more back you go the more difficult it is to discover a working variation and we ultimately did locate a couple like these 3 initial made use of yet still functioning apples iphone from 2007.
Possibly it'' s since they ' re 16 years of ages they are truly defeat up yet the reality that they ' re still functioning is type of a wonder finding one that is initial still secured never ever been opened never ever also been touched by human hands or seen by human eyes is exceptionally rare it'' s so unusual that'I ' ve actually seen lots of people get scammed by this an unopened apple iphone is so rare and beneficial that people will in fact secure an utilized original apple iphone and market it online as an initial and male YouTubers have succumbed this investing hundreds of bucks to try to get their hands on what they believed was going to be an untouched iPhone it'' s just insane that individuals go out scamming such as this yet hey the difference in worth in between just any old original apple iphone and a brand-new sealed unblemished apple iphone is gigantic and it'' s well worth the price of the cellophane and the warmth weapon and the initiative needed to make an old iPhone seem brand-new just about 6 million first gen apples iphone were ever before marketed and so certainly the variety of unopened ones will only ever before decrease from here and it'' s kind of this odd game of attempting to find out when their value has actually come to a head and taking a look at the numbers it in fact seems like it has come to a head so one actually cost an auction in February this year for over sixty thousand dollars which was a document and the greatest we'' ve ever seen after that one more one appeared at a public auction in March a month later that a person chose fifty five thousand dollars then there was one with this lucky you sticker label much more unusual they most likely assumed they were going to get the most money for it yet it really increased at a public auction a few weeks earlier in Chicago and somebody scooped it for only forty thousand bucks I guess they obtained a little bit of a discount rate because that individual was me and this is the plan it was available in uh since that public auction house was not fooling around it was really type of surreal winning this auction just for the record it'' s not such as a typical public auction website like ebay.com where you just click a button and you win this is an actual auction like an online streamed video clip of an individual with a gavel going to obtain 6000 over here 6500 in the front row we obtained 6 800 on the phone till we listen to 7 thousand 7 thousand right here and it just keeps going and you can take part from anywhere in the globe so they were undergoing a bunch of stuff and the apple iphone was product number 203 and so when they reached 203 I logged right into the site and I had my initial offer put which was the minimum of 32 000 the materials have been x-rayed validated going when going twice sold to the on-line prospective buyer carrying on I just won like that was the moment when I dedicated to uh figuring this whole thing out and so the remainder of the rate was just uh sales tax obligation and uh bidding process costs and shipping which seems like a really great time to say that this video clip is sponsored by you there'' s a great deal of points that we might have invested forty thousand bucks on like video camera devices for instance yet we chose to do this therefore we'' ve revived the MKBHD matte black pocketbook it was very limited edition prior to yet they were very popular so we'' re bringing them back in a slightly much less limited edition at shop.mkbhd.com they'' re likewise actually unwell and now I can state that this video clip is made possible by my budget the link is below please acquire one have I made a big error just one way to discover but uh it'' s time to go into this enormous dog crate [Music] so my greatest question as I get involved in this is how do I verify if this is in fact brand name new and Untouched by human hands like on the public auction web site we did see that there were uh there were some X-rays and the x-rays are awesome and they make it really feel actually official however all we truly understand by seeing those x-rays is that the devices are in reality in the Box we put on'' t recognize if they ' re unblemished oh and afterwards the other aspect of this is when you when you put in an identification number on like Apple'' s Mosaic uh you can see that it is not signed up so whoever obtained this phone initially which I believe they said the name of the initial owner that brought it in uh never ever registered it it was never used it was never ever triggered yet that doesn'' t imply it was never opened so this this is really much uh a depend on workout many layers this is like a Russian doll of OG Technology items currently this is the one where I require to be cautious I'' m a specialist individuals it'' s great this is great there it is that is the product packaging of this brand-new however additionally not so new original iPhone you can see it'' s got a bit of Browning around it I'' m not also avoid by that and several of the write-ups that I check out online after I purchased it were claiming basically this break right here in the edge and uh a few other aspects are possibly why it went a bit less than the document sixty thousand dollar price it additionally has this upside-down fortunate you sticker label every write-up that I'' ve checked out that I ' ve looked up regarding this lucky you sticker nobody appears to recognize what it is it'' s kind of confusing because it is super uncommon other initial closed iPhones put on'' t have this sticker I even asked individuals at Apple they wear'' t understand what it indicates there are numerous things I believe people ignored the original iPhone one is it didn'' t have an App Shop so it was just the apps that were on it and 2 you couldn'' t established a wallpaper with the initial version of iphone so every person'' s apple iphone looked precisely the very same so with no additional ado all right this is the moment that all the worth simply went from forty thousand to uh I put on'' t understand relies on exactly how great the problem of the phone is but the plastic cover this 16 year old it it does have a smell oh elegant so they had foam in the top of packages and this is the method it appeared encountering you on the top wow I believe that is actually brand-new just a little point simply a perfectly designed little Factory seal point oh this is tougher than a this taken place in Justine'' s video clip this is a hard screen guard to take off fine so there'' s a little item of plastic hard plastic actually then there is the papers authorized made by Apple in The golden state I really don'' t know if there ' s a sticker label this is now all brand-new area for me despite it being old oh there'' s extra there ' s a there ' s a whole microfiber inside that claims apple iphone on it fascinating fingertips these are all the uh the suggestions for making use of and running your iPhone in 2007 exactly how to establish a passcode just how to send a message just how to search the internet and uh oh the sticker labels are a little Askew is that how they were can you see those just how they'' re one of them is inverted and tilted the other one'' s appropriate side up and tilted so it type of it sort of view function but likewise looks different since they'' re typically straightened currently there is much more this is what I was talking regarding this is what was x-rayed by the auction house simply to validate that they'' re here however they ' re all additionally still sealed in package so USB a wall surface brick you likewise have a 30 pin dock with an earphone jack out on the back this behaves allow'' s open those allow ' s open the dock [Music] that is all new wow it would resemble that uh you likewise obtain two more points you get a 30 pin USB a to 30 pin billing cord and information cable television you plug this into iTunes connect it right into your computer system and earpods this was back in the iconic days of well the shape commercials and the white earphones and plugging the cable right into your phone that really feels really official I don'' t believe it ' s going to transform on but I ' m gon na hold the power button anyway this is one of those points where like it'' s a 16 years of age battery naturally it'' s not going to switch on that would be a quite red flag actually if it did boot if it fine it doesn'' t that ' s good is this this all just feels like specifically what they didn'' t desire me to do when I purchased this original iphone check out the distinction in between that new fresh item of steel versus one that somebody was out utilizing in their day-to-day lives so while I await this a little bit to just probably take a min to bill however I really feel like I can claim that with all that I recognize and all the research study that I'' ve done entering into this purchase it looks like this set is properly new and unopened if anybody can inform me if anyone recognizes or if any person who'' s seeing this operated in Apple retail around the time in 2007 when the iPhone was introduced suppose this originated from Apple or if this is something totally various I would certainly love to understand since that would certainly be truly intriguing there'' s one story online about just how it may have resembled a holiday season sticker that understands all right we'' re back really I ' m back the next day for this reason the different t-shirt and the haircut yet neglect that uh and I intend to discuss whatever that I learned due to the fact that we now have actually gotten the iPhone to switch on and I am convinced that it is an unopened original and I also learned some aspects of the iPhone 2.
So to start with I am persuaded that it'' s an unopened initial as a result of this shrink wrap being extremely old due to the fact that of the shrink cover that was around the apple iphone that was inside package being ideal looking and also the truth that it'' s really remarkably challenging to obtain a 1.0 iPhone to surpass this uh iTunes boot screen if you in fact download an old version of iTunes and plug it in and attempt to activate it you can get remarkably much and still not in fact obtain it to trigger that all type of lens Support to the truth that we can get other iPhones to trigger since they had later variations of software program lengthy story short this is as much as we got with it and it does switch on and work the odd thing that we located was primary this is the initial brick and the original cable that featured the apple iphone we plugged them in over night we returned in the early morning and it still didn'' t turn on however when we replaced the block and not the cable it in fact started to bill second point to discover exists was no SIM card ejector tool with the iPhone in any way however when you do get hold of a SIM card injector tool and pop open the SIM card tray on top you will certainly locate that there is a massive SIM card consisted of with the apple iphone so this was a at T lower single special when it appeared and consider the dimension of this SIM card this is the uh the original size SIM card in the past before micro and nano SIM cards yet then yeah I did not bear in mind that it shipped with this dock up until I did my study and I likewise didn'' t understand it would ship with a black microfiber and these Apple sticker labels that are a little Askew and this new beautiful iPhone is currently worth considerably less than what I paid for it which'' s okay to ensure that ' ll be it with any luck I don'' t regret this thanks so much for viewing and once more if any individual understands what the fortunate you sticker suggests definitely strike us up in the comments or on Twitter talk to you guys in the next one peace [Songs] [Music] foreign [Applause]
