Someone just blew over $190k on a 4GB first-gen iPhone

Clearly we're on the wrong side of history here, but before you scramble through your bits-and-bobs drawers of museum-grade tech hoping to find your model, this is a pristine example. The lot description reads:

Our offering is an exceedingly rare, factory sealed, first-release 4GB model in exceptional condition. Virtually flawless along the surface and edges, the factory seal is clean with correct seam details and tightness. Labels on the reverse are correctly pristine beneath the seal. Outstanding color and gloss. Brand new, never activated. The phone's provenance is pristine as the consignor was part of the original engineering team at Apple when the iPhone first launched.

There are other factors at play that make the 4GB version the"Holy Grail" for collectors, as LCG Auctions put it."Its extreme scarcity is directly related to its limited production. Debuting on June 29th, 2007, alongside the 8GB model, the 4GB model was hampered by slow sales. Buyers chose to pay the $100 upcharge in exchange for double the storage space.
