Solana Saga sells for up to $5K on eBay as Bonk frenzy causes sell-out
After months of tepid sales, the Solana Saga phone is now “SOLD OUT” on its official website amid a recent frenzy for the free Bonk memecoin airdrop.
A Solana Saga phone appears to have sold for as much as $5,000 on eBay — more than eight times its retail cost — after a frenzy to pick up a free memecoin airdrop caused the devices to sell out on the official website for the first time.
According to a Dec. 16 listing on the online marketplace eBay, two unopened, in-box phones have recently sold, listed for $5,000 or “best offer,” while another device has sold for $3,316 or “best offer.”
An additional 20 devices managed to sell for over $2,000 over the weekend, a more than $1,400 markup on the original $599 price tag on the Solana Mobile website.
