Orange is in stock; black sold out.

Seems like the Air isn’t very popular here.

Guarantee you that Gold 1TB Air is due to scalping for Middle East buyers.

I still remember those god awful days when the iPhone launched different days in different countries and people used to scalp the American iPhones to send overseas. There was so much hate for older Asian people waiting in line like they all had the same purpose.

It's still happening in Hong Kong. This year, the 17 Pro Max was netting over $300 profit the first couple days. There are rich buyers in Philippines, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Russia, etc.

It's a week later, if you turn in a Cosmic Orange 256GB today, you're still walking out with a couple hundred dollars in profit.
