Am sure this isn't meant cost this much money
Apple fan's really don't understand value for money want iPhone usb-c port too badly for there own good
Am kinda shocked eBay's buyer protection against price this didn't any alarm go off
Sure is a price premium for usb-c port opinion but on a iPhone

What a bunch of BS, not the guy who did the work, the guy who bought it, what a waste
If this STUDENT doesn't get a job offer from Apple or other top phone companies in a month, we should all get off this planet.
Huge props to the guy.
claudiomp, 14 Nov 2021That's is really concerning !!! so APPLE can sell U$ 2000 IPhone like hotcakes.Yeah, i think not. This is most probably because is the "first" and nobody has one. This inplementation by apple will not increse in value. If they would have made just one device like this, well it would probably go way further then this at a bidding session. What can i say, people really are m..s.

Really stupid and useless.
BJRG, 14 Nov 2021Pretty sure somebody from Apple bought it.
No sane individual would even think of spending ... moreFun fact about the difference of a millinaire and a billionaire to help you visualize how much money some people have. If one dollar was one second, a millionaire would have 37 days to live while a billionaire would have 31 YEARS.
Some people earn in less than a day what an average worker would earn in his entire working life, I'm not saying it's a fair system or anything, it is what it is.
It is because apple will buy it via third party and see how it is fitted & works and will block any future attempts to do so.
Pretty sure somebody from Apple bought it.
No sane individual would even think of spending a dollar more than 500 for a 4 year old device.
So it's $86000 for a usb c connector with the downside of having an iPhone attached to it 😆
soon apple will make his own type c lol
sq2013, 12 Nov 2021Brag about owning a phone that you can't really use but are on one hand, stupid enough to... moreYou can definitely use it, just can't open it up as per the agreement. I mean, the charge port is functional.
But that's besides the point. It's a counter-statement to Apple's when they said that replacing the Lightning port would stifle innovation... clearly makes no difference whatsoever in that regard.
As someone who hates Apple's business practices, I would've bid on it. Thought about it when it was ~4,500, but then it skyrocketed past 10k. 86k is a sizeable F-U to Apple however, kudos to the buyer.
Almand, 13 Nov 2021Also 2021 - Jack Dorsey's first tweet Sold for $2.9 millionyeah NFTs are no different than physical pieces of art, I wouldn't pay $100 for any of the ugly paintings that sell for millions (if the deal involved I couldn't resell). The thing is normal people think 2.9 million is a lot and think on "wow how many years would I have to work to accumulate that at $XX per hour salary", but the person who bought that NFT probably made back the 2.9 million in the stock market the next couple of days, and now he knows he owns the very very first tweet ever. If they offered me to buy a cool piece of tech history for 2.9 dollars, I'd do it in a heartbeat cus 2.9 bucks won't affect my net worth, it'll be neglegible.
and he paid his tuition fees in the process, wow!
