(Dan Tri) - Hundreds of iPhones are about to be auctioned, including many iPhone 13 and 12 Pro priced at only 4 million VND.

An auction company has just announced the auction of confiscated goods of various kinds that have been approved for auction by the Hanoi City Market Management Department.

Notably, in this auction, the Hanoi City Market Management Agency is auctioning a lot of approximately 500 iPhones with a starting price of 2.5 million VND per unit.

Among them, there are over 70 iPhone 12 and 12 Pro models and nearly 400 iPhone 13 models priced at 4 million VND each – a much lower price than used iPhone 13 phones currently on the market (approximately 7-11 million VND, depending on storage capacity).
