In UK, Apple pays iMac buyers 15% fee if they return their iMacs

There is this weird story on Gizmodo:

In this week's iMac update, we talk to an Apple Authorized Service Provider/Reseller from the UK. And what does he tell us? Apple is so short on 27-inch displays that they're paying customers 15% to simply return faulty iMacs. (http://gizmodo.com/5463415/the-faulty-imac-saga-chapter-4-apple-buying-out-customers)

sounds like a good story to me ...but why would apple pay you the full amount plus extra 15% if you return your faulty iMac , i mean they are not able to repair the faulty ones they already have ..so why pay to get more faulty ones ..... it would make sense if they would want to get all iMacs of the market because they have something new somewhere hidden to replace all the 27" iMacs ..maybe a 30 inch iMac with a plasma screen :D
