lol you don't think "regular people" won't be lining up for a phone they know nothing about in a few days? You must be new here.
In line for attention. In line for the iPhone. Samething.
Oh they are, they just don't feel the need to stand in line so everything thinks they're kool.
Can't be Samsung or Microsoft

(and according to this article, Samsung seem to be extremely curious about the lineups in general

There was no preorder for 5S

----------
Just google it, there was no pre order for 5S
Am I wrong in saying that these people are seriously sad for queueing up for so long for a phone?
correct. but in my post I wrote "they've done it both ways" There was a pre-order for the 5
Very true but if they had no other way of getting income during the 256 hours that they aren't working their 9-5 then they still make out better financially this way. But you are also correctly in that it really doesn't ****ing matter cuz its just a publicity stunt.
Thank you! Will AT&T ship them by launch day like Apple or is going through Apple preferred?
Yep AT&T will ship same as apple--I prefer going thru apple, thats just me though.
BuyBackWorld is picking up their food bill for the three-week urban campout. The company is also paying for the iPhone 6 of their choice
Video Medicine wanted the Rays to be first in line, for better publicity. So they paid Cruz and Ceballo $2,500 to let them cut ahead.
$1,250 + free iphone (assuming most expensive 128gb) + getting paid by BuyBackWorld

Meet the People Already Lining Up Outside Apple's Flagship Store http://abcnews.go.com/US/video/meet-people-lining-apples-flagship-store-25252165
Clearly not, how can people be so gaga over a phone that they are going to wait in line for 2 weeks to buy one
Pre-order one online like normal people and wait for it.
This isn't stupid at all, far from it actually.
People can make A LOT of money by queuing up very early.
Simply get there early but sell your place in the queue. For someone that has spare time on their hands and wants to make some money, then why not?

ok.......so double the payment $1250+$1250 (?????? terrible negotiators - if this other company really wanted better publicity being first, theyd be paying me more than 2500 to split.......) + assuming they keep the same price points as last years 5s $849. its actually going to be at least 19 days = 456 hrs. true, IF they had to work 456 hours straight, they would make more money. but they dont have to work 456 hours straight like they are doing this.
2500+849 = $7.34/hr
456
I hope they arent doing it for the money.....which they probably arent (or they are terrible at math). Not hating on anyone, if they want to do it its their prerogative, but not for me thats for sure.
Thank you so much! It means the world to get positive feedback. Made my whole night.
Some people only judge others without even caring to read. I'm not one of those, I think you're doing a great thing and having a little fun for yourselves too.
I'd like to camp out someday but we live to far from any of those stores to really make that a reality.
