iPhone 5 day today!

Not an iPhone fan or user but I do like seeing the saddos of this world queue for days in front of an Apple store just to be one of the first few people to own a phone, yes a phone.

So admit it I know some of you spent the last week in a tent in front of a shop? I am going to say either VC or funrob?

I have not had a mobile phone for about seven years now and i have missed nothing.

The hype amuses me to no end. Queueing for days on end? Don't they have jobs?

They are just complete weirdos. People buy places in the queue for £1000+ so they are spending about £1500 on a phone!!!!

To be fair, it would be worth paying 4 or 5 people to queue so you can sell them for massive profits on ebay.

"Hey random tourist, queue here for a couple of hours and take this £100"

2 weeks later

5 x £500 iPhones sold on ebay for £1000 each.

Miami here I come!

But if nobody does buy them you are stuck with 5 phones you don't want!

To be fair Ozil, there are tons of people out there who want them!

I'm thinking of doing it when the PS4 and XBox 720 come out. See what the market demand is before and just buy a load. Worst case scenario I sell them for market price or lose a few pounds on eash but the profit is there to be made.
Also the iPhone 6 next year and things like that.

I wish i'd bought some Radiohead tickets for next month. They're on Seatwave at the moment for like £300-£400 each, from a £60-£80 face value.

There's money to be made out there if you have a half decent cash reserve and are quick enough to buy these things before they sell out.

My phone cost me 20 quid, has no apps. not even a screen

Gets switched off at 5pm too

Dont have facebook, don't have twitter either

Somehow I manage

I did hear about the people queuing for a week just for a phone ealier today. I guess these errrrm people don't realise that they will never get the week back and this time next week, the phone will be out of date

Totally amazes me

Never gave it a second though till I read in the paper the other week it's worth over a grand. I was stunned tbh
