have you guys seen the ridiculous prices on ebay?
they are being sold for 3-5k USD.

If you couldn't get your phone until Mid October, would you pay 5K to get it near release date?

This happens every year, not so much anymore. Maybe people that have messed up their Apple credit and their Carrier credit options. Besides the ones who didn't or couldn't pre order.

OP, you are spreading false misleading information. They are not being “Sold” for that price anywhere on eBay, they may be listed at these prices somewhere on eBay but they’re certainly not being sold, per say at these ridiculous prices.

Some people must not know how to search for sold items on eBay. There are plenty being sold for $2000 or more. Here’s a screenshot of some of the MANY examples! After eBay fees people are walking away with $250 or more.

The thing about selling on Fleabay is the buyers have 6 months PayPal protection to file a claim for refund and then return the iPhone after disputing some trivial issue.

Yep exactly why I hate selling anything on eBay. It used to be so much better back in the early 2000s.
