I was at the Apple store today looking to buy an iPhone 4 dock. It was fairly busy (mostly around the iPhone 4). I happen to notice a small crowd (about 6 people) around in the back. People were crowding around someone who was trying to return their iPhone 4.

As the Apple store employee was processing the return, people were questioning him why he was returning and he said it was because of the antenna issue. Someone offered him $400 cash for his iPhone 4. He declined.

Another person was pissed because they would not let him buy the iPhone 4 that was just returned. He didn't mind paying the full upgrade price.
 
LOL

Random guy: Your iPhone 4 doesnt work? Can I buy it for full price please?
Store employee: Off you go, nothing to see here.

I would of started auctioning off the phone in store to whomever wanted it the most. That would be fun.

Idiot sheep: Your iPhone 4 doesnt work? Can I buy a faulty phone for full price please?
Sheep dog: Off you go, nothing to see here. Our phones don't work, and we won't sell you one cos you're not had your wool cut recently.

Fixed.
 
No joke. What an HONORABLE MAN...

:D

There is nothing wrong with selling something that you own. But if those people really wanted the phone, they would have offered at least a reasonable amount for it. $400 is a pathetic and insulting offer. I suppose, the chap would have to keep paying the subscription or the termination fee, whilst the real value of the phone is closer to $800.
