From $599 to $40,000 in 15 years.

What prompted five figures? The 15-year-old phone is in “exceptional” condition with “pristine” stickers and labels. What’s more, the device is still inside the original packaging and has never been activated. In addition, the box sports a life-size image of the phone with its 12 original icons , along with a two-megapixel camera, an innovative touchscreen and the Safari web browser.

Indeed, the base model of the recently released iPhone 14 features 128 GB of storage , a 12-megapixel main camera with an ultra-wide lens, improved functionality and a ton of innovative features. The device that Steve Jobs at unveiled at MacWorld San Francisco in January 2007 is what started it all. This isn’t the first time that a first-generation iPhone has fetched a pretty penny, either. Last August, a 2007 model sold for just under $36,000 at RR Auctions. Might be worth holding onto your old phones, folks.
