Description: Exceedingly rare for the most discerning Apple collector. Magnitudes of order more rare that the original iPhone or box. This was a DAY ONE exclusive... A single moment in history where it all began. LAUNCH DAY ONLY! If you are ever going to own one of these ππ½THISππ½ is the one to own. Pristine Vintage Apple iPhone 1st Generation Launch Day Bag Never Folded or Assembled. Rare opportunity to own this vintage collectible in pristine unfolded/unassembled condition. It's cool to own a first-gen iPhone, but if you really want to show the world that you were among the early Apple faithful ? a true believer like those who queued up for the June 29, 2007 launch βΆ this is it: the elegant custom "Launch Day Bag.". It's an early example of the extraordinary care Cupertino puts into the packaging of their magical devices. This bag was available only to the first few customers who lined up to buy the first-gen iPhone on launch day in 2007. Some of us slept overnight on 5th Avenue in Manhattan to be among the first in the world to acquire the revolutionary iPhone. After all of the hours in line and anticipation, I saw they had the bags already set up for people to carry away their newly-acquired revolutionary iPhone to the envy of everyone in sight. I made a special request for mine to be unassembled to keep in new condition - as I considered it as much of a prized possession and much more rare than the iPhone itself... A moment in history that would uniquely mark that special day forever. The rest is history and now after more than 16 years being lovingly-preserved, this unique unassembled bag can be yours. Extremely minor surface variations -- carefully detailed in photos (zoom in). Look carefully at other listings. There's nothing of this caliber currently available anywhere in the world. No creases, gouges, flaking, rips, tears or other physical damage you'll see with the assembled and used bags in the other listings when occasionally available. No attempt has been made to conceal minor surface blemishes - to the contrary, images have been enlarged to provide full visibility. (NB: This bag has normal shelf wear and because the printing is matte black, it's possible to hold up to different lighting conditions from angles to see variations in shading/imperfections/variations/non-emulsive scuffs etc., but the bag was never used and carefully stored in a safe, smoke-free, and light-free environment = which makes it preserved like no other.) Any questions, please ask. Don't miss this rare opportunity! ππ½=== Note about Seller's reputation ===ππ½ I've been on ebay for over 21 years with hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of positive feedback reviews as a SELLER (not an easy task). One individual made the decision to tarnish my reputation a few years ago with false statements (which you can see he has done to many, many sellers. If you click on his "feedback left for others" you will see half of his most recent reviews left for other sellers are negative -- very malignant to the eBay community.) After that occurrence, I essentially hung up my active "seller's hat" so unfortunately that slander remains as one of my last "feedback" remarks. If you scroll down you will see 1 "neutral review" and hundreds upon hundreds of positive reviews from my buyers over 2 decades. (Sorry for the lengthy explanation, but I felt it needed to be addressed to provide assurance of my >2-decade reputation on eBay.) ============== Thanks for looking and happy bidding to one lucky winner!
