Stupid people with their stupid iPhone desires and their stupid intention to sell them on Ebay, just like all the other new electronics such as PS3, etc. Stupid people willing to wait in line for hours and even overnight for something that could easily be had a couple weeks later, just like the PS3. And even stupider people who are willing to pay 2 or 3 times the retail value for something that could easily be had a few weeks later. This society!

Have you seen the iPhones on eBay? Not many bidders - looks like the supply was good enough that a lot of scalpers are out of luck.

Anybody else notice she was driving a Cayenne? She's dumb, but I don't think losing $800 is going to hurt her too much. It would have been hilarious to be there when she got home. I'm sure she was bragging to her husband that she would be bringing home all this money by putting 100 iPhones on ebay, but all she comes home with is one phone that she'll be lucky to break even on and blew $800.

No, I have not. I thought it was the same case with the PS3.

What would've been even more funny is if she'd bought $100K worth of iPhones but was unable to sell them on Ebay or only able to sell them for less than the retail value.
