No body is perfects. You expect too much from a product that is assemblied by human and not android.

A significant portion of my friends at college have either an iPhone/iPod or both an iPhone/iPod and a Mac computer and I have never ever heard a story about a brand new product being scratched/dented/etc.
Of course, if it were to happen I'd expect a free replacement if the damage was bad enough.
My quote was in response to this:
I agree with what you are saying... For the prices, I expect nothing less than the best.
It's impossible for anything on the production line to be 100% perfect. Things get scratched after being used anyway.
I'm very fussy about the quality of my display - anything less than 99.9% perfect then I will ask for an exchange.
I guess you didn't read any of the posts or se any of the pictures after the iP5 launch then.

You're right I actually didn't. I'm spotty with visiting the forums and wasn't aware that it was so prevalent with the iPhone 5.
