Engineering student Ken Pillonel modded an iPhone with a custom USB-C port in October. Now he’s selling the phone on eBay where its current bid is $100,100. The initial listing was for $1. In a little less than five days, 44 people have driven the cost of the custom phone up more than 100,000 percent.
Pillonel took on the project for a simple reason. “I just want an iPhone with USB Type-C on it,” he said in a blog post about the project. “Why? Because everything I own has USB Type-C so it would be pretty neat to convert an iPhone too. Have one charger and one cable to charge everything.”
