all right in the collection agency globe of Standards normally old items of technology aren'' t actually all that intriguing like who intends to buy an apple iphone 6 now the leading most demanded item of technology in The Collector globe is the factory secured unopened initial iPhone now enjoyable truth back when we mosted likely to go make that uh examining each and every single iPhone video clip we did need to go back as well as locate and get a working variation of each and every single apple iphone ever made and also the more back you go the more difficult it is to find a working variation and we ultimately did discover a couple like these 3 original made use of however still functioning iPhones from 2007.
Maybe it'' s because they ' re 16 years old they are actually attack however the truth that they ' re still working is type of a miracle finding one that is initial still sealed never ever been opened up never ever even been touched by human hands or seen by human eyes is incredibly rare it'' s so uncommon that'I ' ve really seen many individuals obtain scammed by this an unopened apple iphone is so rare and useful that individuals will actually secure a made use of initial iPhone and also offer it online as an original as well as man YouTubers have succumbed to this investing hundreds of dollars to attempt to get their hands on what they believed was going to be an untouched apple iphone it'' s simply insane that people go out scamming similar to this yet hey the distinction in worth between simply any kind of old original iPhone as well as a brand-new secured untouched iPhone is big and it'' s well worth the price of the cellophane and the warmth weapon as well as the effort needed to make an old iPhone seem new only regarding 6 million initial gen iPhones were ever before offered therefore of training course the number of unopened ones will only ever before go down from right here and it'' s type of this unusual game of trying to find out when their value has actually peaked and considering the numbers it in fact really feels like it has actually peaked so one really cost an auction in February this year for over sixty thousand dollars which was a record and also the greatest we'' ve ever before seen then one more one appeared at an auction in March a month later on that went with fifty 5 thousand bucks after that there was one with this fortunate you sticker even much more unusual they probably believed they were going to get one of the most cash for it yet it really went up at an auction a couple of weeks earlier in Chicago as well as somebody scooped it for just forty thousand dollars I presume they got a little a discount rate since that individual was me as well as this is the plan it came in uh since that auction house was not playing around it was really kind of surreal winning this public auction simply for the document it'' s not such as a regular public auction site like ebay.com where you just click a switch as well as you win this is a real auction like an online streamed video clip of a guy with a gavel going to obtain 6000 over here 6500 in the front row we got 6 800 on the phone up until we listen to seven thousand 7 thousand here and it simply keeps going as well as you can get involved from throughout the globe so they were going via a bunch of things as well as the apple iphone was thing number 203 therefore when they reached 203 I logged into the site and I had my preliminary deal put which was the minimum of 32 000 the contents have actually been x-rayed confirmed going as soon as going two times sold to the on-line bidder moving on I just won like that was the moment when I dedicated to uh figuring this whole point out therefore the remainder of the cost was just uh sales tax obligation and also uh bidding costs and delivery which seems like an actually excellent time to say that this video clip is sponsored by you there'' s a great deal of things that we can have spent forty thousand dollars on like electronic camera devices for instance however we determined to do this and so we'' ve revived the MKBHD matte black pocketbook it was super limited version prior to but they were incredibly popular so we'' re bringing them back in a slightly much less minimal edition at shop.mkbhd.com they'' re likewise actually ill and also now I can say that this video clip is enabled by my pocketbook the link is below please get one have I made a big mistake just one means to figure out but uh it'' s time to go into this gigantic pet crate [Songs] so my greatest inquiry as I enter into this is how do I confirm if this is really brand-new as well as Untouched by human hands like on the public auction web site we did see that there were uh there were some X-rays and also the x-rays are cool as well as they make it feel actually official yet all we actually know by seeing those x-rays is that the devices are in reality in package we put on'' t understand if they ' re unblemished oh and after that the other thing regarding this is when you when you place in an identification number on like Apple'' s Mosaic uh you can see that it is not registered so whoever obtained this phone originally which I assume they said the name of the initial owner that brought it in uh never registered it it was never ever utilized it was never activated yet that doesn'' t indicate it was never ever opened so this this is quite uh a trust workout numerous layers this is like a Russian doll of OG Tech items currently this is the one where I require to be cautious I'' m a professional people it'' s fine this is great there it is that is the packaging of this brand-new yet additionally not so all new initial iPhone you can see it'' s got a little bit of Browning around it I'' m not too avoid by that and also some of the articles that I check out online after I bought it were saying generally this break below in the edge and uh some various other aspects are possibly why it went a little bit reduced than the document sixty thousand dollar rate it likewise has this upside-down lucky you sticker label every post that I'' ve read that I ' ve looked up regarding this fortunate you sticker no one seems to know what it is it'' s sort of perplexing due to the fact that it is extremely uncommon various other original sealed apples iphone put on'' t have this sticker I also asked individuals at Apple they wear'' t recognize what it implies there are many points I believe people ignored the initial apple iphone one is it didn'' t have an Application Shop so it was just the apps that were on it as well as 2 you couldn'' t established a wallpaper with the initial variation of iOS so everybody'' s apple iphone looked precisely the very same so with no more ado okay this is the moment that all the worth just went from forty thousand to uh I put on'' t know depends on just how great the condition of the phone is but the plastic cover this 16 year old it it does have a smell oh fancy so they had foam in the top of the boxes and this is the method it turned up encountering you on the top wow I think that is really all new simply a little point simply a perfectly designed little Manufacturing facility seal point oh this is more difficult than a this occurred in Justine'' s video this is a difficult screen guard to remove okay so there'' s a little item of plastic difficult plastic in fact after that there is the documents authorized made by Apple in California I really don'' t understand if there ' s a sticker this is now all brand-new area for me regardless of it being old oh there'' s much more there ' s a there ' s a whole microfiber inside that claims iPhone on it fascinating fingertips these are all the uh the tips for utilizing as well as operating your apple iphone in 2007 exactly how to establish a passcode how to send a message just how to browse the web and uh oh the sticker labels are a bit Askew is that exactly how they were can you see those just how they'' re one of them is upside-down and slanted the various other one'' s best side up and also slanted so it sort of it type of view function yet also looks various because they'' re normally lined up now there is also much more this is what I was chatting about this is what was x-rayed by the public auction home simply to validate that they'' re right here but they ' re all also still sealed in the box so USB a wall surface brick you also have a 30 pin dock with an earphone jack out on the back this is great allow'' s open those allow ' s open the dock [Songs] that is all new wow it would certainly look like that uh you likewise get two more points you obtain a 30 pin USB a to 30 pin charging cable television as well as information cable television you connect this into iTunes plug it into your computer system as well as earpods this was back in the renowned days of well the silhouette commercials as well as the white earphones and plugging the cable right into your phone that really feels really legitimate I don'' t think it ' s mosting likely to switch on yet I ' m gon na hold the power switch anyway this is one of those things where like it'' s a 16 years of age battery of training course it'' s not mosting likely to turn on that would be a pretty red flag in fact if it did boot if it okay it doesn'' t that ' s excellent is this this all just seems like precisely what they didn'' t want me to do when I purchased this original iphone check out the difference between that all new fresh item of steel versus one that someone was out utilizing in their day-to-day lives so while I wait for this a little to simply most likely take a minute to bill however I really feel like I can claim that with all that I understand and also all the research that I'' ve done going into this acquisition it appears like this is legally all new as well as unopened if anybody can tell me if anyone understands or if anybody who'' s watching this worked in Apple retail around the time in 2007 when the apple iphone was launched suppose this came from Apple or if this is something totally different I would certainly like to recognize since that would be truly intriguing there'' s one tale online about exactly how it could have been like a holiday sticker label that recognizes all right we'' re back really I ' m back the following day hence the various t shirt and also the haircut yet disregard that uh and also I wish to discuss every little thing that I learned because we currently have actually gotten the iPhone to turn on and I am encouraged that it is an unopened initial and I also discovered some points about the apple iphone 2.
So first of all I am convinced that it'' s an unopened original due to this diminish cover being very old since of the diminish cover that was around the apple iphone that was inside the Box being ideal looking and also even the reality that it'' s actually remarkably difficult to obtain a 1.0 iPhone to get past this uh iTunes boot screen if you really download an old version of iTunes and also connect it in and also attempt to trigger it you can get surprisingly much as well as still not actually obtain it to trigger that all kind of lens Support to the reality that we can obtain various other iPhones to trigger due to the fact that they had later variations of software application lengthy story short this is regarding we got with it and it does activate and function the strange thing that we found was number one this is the original brick and the original wire that included the iPhone we plugged them in over night we returned in the morning and it still didn'' t turn on yet when we replaced the brick as well as not the wire it really started to charge 2nd point to discover is there was no SIM card ejector device with the apple iphone whatsoever however when you do get hold of a SIM card injector tool and pop open up the SIM card tray on top you will certainly discover that there is a massive SIM card consisted of with the iPhone so this was a at T reduce single exclusive when it came out as well as take a look at the dimension of this SIM card this is the uh the original dimension SIM card in the past prior to micro as well as nano SIM cards yet then yeah I did not keep in mind that it delivered with this dock till I did my research study and also I likewise didn'' t know it would certainly deliver with a black microfiber and these Apple sticker labels that are somewhat Askew and this new immaculate apple iphone is now worth significantly less than what I spent for it which'' s okay to ensure that ' ll be it hopefully I wear'' t remorse this thanks a lot for watching and again if anybody understands what the fortunate you sticker label implies definitely strike us up in the remarks or on Twitter talk with you guys in the next one peace [Music] [Songs] foreign [Applause]
