MADNESS: This Gold iPhone Just Sold On eBay For $10,100
The sale reflects a kind of insanity that has set in among some
We told you earlier today that scalpers in China were selling gold iPhones for twice their face value, and another gold iPhone seller on eBay was asking $4,600 for a three-pack.
But this iPhone (pictured) went from being bid up in increments of $10 or $20 over the weekend, to bids of $100 extra or more. On the last day of bidding, buyers stalled at around $2,500. But then one bidder offered a staggering $10,000 - only to be outbid at the last minute by someone offering $100 more than that.
The winning bidder - "y***9" - has a 98% satisfaction rating on eBay and a fairly long record of buying cellphone accessories.
