This one sold for $1875, but it had to be brought up to that point. Still, someone might actually outright go for $1600.
All I can say is the seller of the one that sold is one lucky bastard.

He's selling two:

He probably thought "I'll get two! One to keep, one to sell on E-bay. It may not go for much, but I'll make back some of my money for the one I keep, I hope"
*later*
"HOLY !@#$ THAT'S A LOT OF MONEY! Nuts to keeping it, how much can I get for the second one?!?!?"

 

[Ollonk]

I don't begrudge him the money; if I didn't want my Pandora, I would likely do the same.

I begrudge him the Pandoras. I want mine NOW and this makes 4 or 5 that, if they had not been on ebay, would be closer to my place in line.

A fool and his money....

I bet all of those early first batchers that cancelled are pissed now

BTW: Where are all of those vaporware twats now?

Not nearly as pissed as the ones who were made to cancel by their parents/significant other who believed it was a scam and they'd never get one.

 

[quadomatic]

OMG, i would love some extra cash...these guys are making bank

 

[Arkay Firestar]

Maybe Craig should just start selling one out of every 50 via ebay through shadow accounts.

$$$

 

[MarkoeZ]

special editions anyone?

 

[kingoddball]

Scum.
Why take a preorder from some else who actually WANTS the device just to sell on eBay?!

SCUM!

I wouldn't.. May have thought it, but wouldn't.

 

[MarkoeZ]

hmm, dunno. with the price of the first one sold... If my financial situation was bad, i'd put it up. With very much pain probably, but still.
Luckily just looking forward to it. and not selling, even for that price.

Edit: And Otherwise: SCUMMM!!!! AARRgggghhhh!!!!

Should have etched in an Apple logo into the back and told Gizmodo he found it at a pub.

CRIMINAL SCUM!

lol, yes.
But we'd need somebody dumber than Gizmodo. Once the iPhone 4 hype dies down, let's do that to BBC or someone.
And you don't etch Apple logos. Apple devices are smooth like the abstractness of a liberal arts degree. So you'd have to, like, grind off the Pandora logo, pray for forgiveness, and then put a silvery Apple logo on, but it would be flush with the plastic casing.

Edit: Maybe even Slashdot. They post some stupid shit sometimes.

We should stop fighting those lucky bastards that make a fortune by selling pandoras on eBay, but use them as a news on its own.

I think the general press will be interested much more if their pandora story is backed by some eBay-get-rich-quick-scheme.

So tell all press feeds about it, make it an official news by OP-team that there are pandoras sold for more than 1000$ while second batchers will get it for under 500$.

He deserves it. He bought several and never hid the fact that he did. He is a great supporter of the project from day one and also has to do this stuff to stay alive, you know people need money to buy food and all that.

This witch-hunt is starting to piss me off.

 

[Beholder]

Yeah. But I love the part where John Cleese is pounding his fist in hand and yelling (with a somewhat breaking voice) "Burn!"
