i drove all the way to portland to grab some phones and was hit with this curveball, so i ended up buyin 2 from 2 stores, spending the night going back to one, going to the other, got 2 more from each , then waltz back in and got 2 more from each store again, just from different reps.. its pretty stupid though this was last weekend, I was also told that apple lowered it to 1 then bumped it back up to 2. strange

yeah dude, i buy em for 399 US so thats like 395$ cnd, i unlock em, and then sell them for $575 cnd, x10 well since your not that great at math that is $1650 profit do that 3x a month, thats $60k/year to work 2 hrs a day selling iphones.

But what exactly is the risk for one individual that wants to export and unlock one iPhone (only one) to send to a friend on another country, breaking obviously the "short-term purchase agreement"? How can Apple or AT&T know that that specific phone was exported and what they can do about it? Sue the person that bought it?

I wonder if this means 'no more than 2 AT A TIME'?
Or will c/c details be kept to prevent more transactions occurring...
2 at a time is a pain, but manageable...

PLUS

They GET SALES... who cares how.. they get them!

[geoffl1]

so its really 2 per day?

how often can you buy 2?

[Trasterus]

Does someone know when this rule is over?
How can I buy iphones in ATT stores?
I heard one must have an ATT account, but how many phones can I buy with one account? And will I have to pay a monthly payment if I'm selling them overseas?
