Deal or No deal: iPhone 5 at $835?

[Blackberryroid]

I saw a 16 GB iPhone 5 at $835. No hidden charges, no shipping fee, no tax. Just plain $835. The cheapest one I have ever seen.

Is this a good deal?

Umm, no. Not even close. Out of contract iPhone 5 16GB is $649.

The 64GB version is $849. Whoever is selling that is trying to rip someone off.

This is assuming you're in the US. If you're in another country where pricing is different, disregard my message.

I'm not in the US. I'm in one of those islands where you need to ride a boat to get to the city.

That may sound like sarcasm, but it's not. The point is, the iPhone 5 will be here in March 2013. Clearly, I don't have that time. I'm holding my breath until I get one and I'll die soon enough. The iPhone 5 is my Air.

The bottom line is, what do you think? For $835 on an iPhone?

You are really going to drop that much money on a phone that is only slightly better than a ~$100 4S? You are a lamb.

I would never spend so much money on a phone.

I don't know where you live, but that's pretty expensive compared to what Apple is selling it in Europe and North america.

Find a way to buy it in the US, then get it shipped to you, buy factory unlocked, just wait a couple of weeks and you can get it before March 2013.
Use this time to make it happen.
Have someone you fully trust help you.

Ah, I didn't realize that the prices went up in Europe a bit. Still, not quite 936 USD yet in most places.
