Unreleased, but standard BlackBerry Javelin fetches $17,100 on eBay

Let’s hope that eBay user jdavidson31 from Ontario Canada has plenty of cash lying around because as of yesterday evening he is the proud owner of a still unreleased BlackBerry Javelin. Of course, I use the word “proud” with a little sarcasm, because he can also be considered crazy because he paid bid a whopping $17,100 for that privilege.

Aside from the fact that I would have a hard time paying even $1,000 for a cell phone, I would say that $17,100 cell phone better come fully loaded with a 24/7 support staff and more. The sad part is that he certainly did not get that, in fact he did not even get free shipping. Of course, if you are willing to pay that much for a BlackBerry I guess a few extra bucks for shipping will not be missed.
