Paid means a source reports payments. Bids are auction amounts. Committed / Reserved are commitments or bookings. Website total / Creator reported identify who states the figure. Only public payment records independently establish payment; these amounts are never added together.
Mahesh is auctioning 13 physical decal spots on the back of an iPhone 18 Pro Max, two camera lens spots, ten backplate spots and the charger, promising 24 months of daily carry and appearances in his build in public videos. The page's funding bar reads $2,775 raised of a $3,299 goal at 84 percent, but that figure is a hardcoded default in the template and the site's own live auction feed returns all 13 spots at zero with no sponsor, so nothing is reported as raised. The auction opened 18 September and closes 25 September 2026. Ask: A seven day auction with opening bids from $99 to $400 a spot for 24 months on the device..

I’ve spent the last year building mobile apps without actually owning an iPhone
Today, I’m changing that:
I’m auctioning 13 ad spots on an iPhone 18 Pro Max to fund my development machine
→ 2 camera lens decals + 10 backplate spots + charger
→ 24 months permanent exposure
→ In every build in public reel, tutorial, and event
