To commemorate the sale of its first product, Nanosolar said it would keep one solar panel for historical purposes, donate a second to the Tech Museum of Innovation in San Jose and auction a third on eBay.
As of Friday afternoon, $13,100 was the highest bid of 95 offers so far for "Nanosolar Utility Panel #2." The bidding started at 99 cents on Dec. 17. The sale ends Thursday. Proceeds will be donated to an unnamed charity.
The product description said the winning bidder must sign an agreement forbidding "any reverse engineering of the solar panel or its components," and says the panel will be held in escrow until June 1, 2009.
Because this is the first time it has been on eBay, Nanosolar has a zero feedback score right now.
