For mine I really don't understand the appeal of ordering online when there's a queuing experience to be part of. -People- are awesome.
I really don't like being mean but you have to be an unbelievable loser to do this.
Do these people have jobs?
The sales associate said last year the line started on Tuesday. It was just those same 2 people when I stopped by earlier today (around 1:30). The rep said I could show up at 7:50am for my 8:00-8:30am window and I'd be out of there by 8:30am. I'll find out tomorrow. Oak Brook told my sister that they will hold reservations until the end of the day.
It's all about passion, passion to Apple, Apple product, iPhone. People simply love shiny new Apple gadget, not Samsung, not HP - which they can only dream of to copy. And sometimes they go to extreme to prove their passion. It's an art.
Or.
It's just a marketing ploy. Move along.
It is like getting in line for concert tickets. Part of an experience.I get it for the first few years but this is the 9th iPhone release day. People say they line up for the experience. I don't get it at this point, but it doesn't hurt me so queue up everyone![]()
I don't understand why anyone would do this.
It is kind of fun getting to know the other people that are waiting and getting excited for the same new product. I have waited in lines a couple times, but never overnight. It was fun those few times, but I am over it now. I will just wait until I can just walk in and buy one.
Well said!
Samsung's new note 5 is so much h of an iPhone copy. It's sad. Can't they hire intelligent people to come up with their own ideas.
Where the hell did you get that from? I don't give a rats @ss full of sh*t what people do with their time. Doesn't matter one bit to me. My likes and dislikes are NOT present in my post at all. You're missing the point..... but alas, I can break it down for you and will phrase it in another way that, hopefully, you will comprehend without making horrible, inaccurate inferences: "I don't understand the appeal of queuing up in line well in advance (or at all) for something that can easily be ordered online". I went on to try to rationalize or justify why they *may* do it (hence the sentences about the social aspects of waiting in line) but It's obvious that was a bit over your head.
Again, my whole post must have been lost on you. To pull one from the annals of the internets: reading comprehension > you.
You would be greatly benefited in life to have a less polarized, combative approach to your interactions with others and more of a deep-thinking about the message that other party/parties are *really* trying to convey.
What's lame is you posting about it![]()
I don't understand why anyone would do this.
you're assume they can be sold for a profit - that will depend on the supply!
