The iPhone 15 and 16 models generally sell for between $1,200 and $1,500 on eBay. When the app was first banned iPhones with TikTok installed were listed for as much as $1 million during the app's 14 hour blackout, Ukrainian technology news outlet ITC reported.

TikTok being banned across the United States has created a new market on eBay for smartphones that already have the app installed.

While some can jump back on TikTok without a hitch, others who either deleted or never downloaded the app remain in the dark as the Apple and Google app stores in the U.S. still don't have it available.
