Nuked Apple kept selling the original $ 299 homepod months after it got discontinued. Now, some people are willing to pay more than Apple charged for it.
On average, an Apple homepod fetched $ 375 this past week. That’s 25 percent more than Apple charged. The average cost is $ 375.
Some sellers are boasting that they got Apple to replace their old homepods with brand-new units just so they could flip them. A used speaker with no box might only net you $ 220 before eBay fees, but we’ve seen a few factory sealed non-refurbished homepods sell for over $ 500.
The average sale price was more like $ 350 this past week. That’s still $ 50 more than they cost brand-new.
A homepod has been appreciating over the past year since it got discontinued. That’s practically unheard of for gadgets like these, except for scalping situations like we’ve recently seen with consoles and GPUs.
