Some “antique” technological treasures can make you rich. A few years ago, an original packaged version of the video game Super Mario Bros. fetched over half a million euros. The Apple fans among you should also take another look and see if you still have an old iPhone lying around somewhere. Maybe a 2007 model? That can earn you a whopping 120,000 euros.
A recently concluded auction at LCG Auctions shows that there is a real treasure hidden in the original iPhone from 2007. Such an iPhone changed hands in March for 130,027.20 US dollars (approx. 120,000 euros). The 4 gigabyte model was in its original packaging, which may have contributed to the high selling price.

Such gigantic sums for old iPhone models are not an isolated case. There were two auctions last year in which the same models also achieved six-figure sums.

However, such high sums are usually only achieved if the iPhone is still in its original packaging. The sales value increases even more if it is a limited model that was only produced in small numbers.
