As iPhone fever builds we spotted an eBay seller taking advantage of the buzz and selling a cardboard model. The current bid stands at $150 with over 50 bidders so far.
The description of the cardboard iPhone states:
Isn’t it pretty? You’re bidding on a papercraft Apple iPhone with a fully charged battery in it, in a brown box I got from Apple Sacramento.
The iPhone doesn’t come out until the summer, so have fun playing around with this, impressing your friends!

That is the most craziest idea I’ve ever heard. Selling a cardboard picture of and iPhone with a battery in it for over 100 dollars? You must be kidding me.
