The way I see it, Apple has screwed you all over intentionally by selling you phones with cases that are guaranteed to crack. Keep the phone, they owe you.

I wouldn't trust you with my car keys let alone an important job position say managing money with those morals. Seriously there should be a list of fellows like you, would certainly get rid of some of these selfish fools that run highend companys. Miserable.
 
Ok, all of you people on your moral high horses should step down. In these tough economic times 700 dollars is a decent amount of money. You could make a car payment, help with a house payment, make a phone bill payment :) There is no such thing as karma, apple sent him two phones, thats that. Use it to your advantage, sell it bro. Apple has shafted me a few times, i had to write a letter to them after their damn incompetent employee broke off the sim tray in the phone and claimed water damage after taking it in the back, thus refusing to fix the real issue (Hardware malfunction) I swear i almost reached over that "genius" counter and put his chicken head through an imac, but i walked out of the store with a broken iphone, wrote the letter, and after 3 dispatch errors i got it 2 days ago. A month and a half.... Mr Shin, please don't send that phone back.

Boy you really dug deep to pull this one out of the archives to give some really unethical advice. Thanks! You're a great person.

Wow. I would have messed up that "genius". That's a pretty tragic apple customer care story
 
I like Apple's products, but Apple is still a fairly large corporation - they want to make money. If you feel morally wrong about not assisting Apple in making more money (I think they're pretty well off at the moment), return the phone.
 
keep it and sell it mate.. some of the stuff im reading here is utter BS.. i guarantee you the majority of these people would sell it on! It's not your problem, it's their mistake!! So why not make a bit of free cash? It's not like apple are going to go bust from losing an iPhone!
