MacDailyNews - Where Mac news comes first

On behalf of the entire Apple fan club, may I simply say...

Ha ha!

serves that ebay-scum well

Perfect. I wanted to learn more about that story. I had heard parts of it, but couldn't really imagine that someone was stupid enough to not know about the 2 phone limit at the Apple Store, or the 1 phone limit at the AT&T;Stores. To bad they didn't follow her reaction to learning her plan sucked.

Ha-ha.

lmao. idiot.

Stupid bitch. Was her name Paris by chance?

I am always pleased when ebay pieces of crap such as that bee-otch get what they deserve. A loss in money.

It was clearly a staged re-enactment of what might have taken place. No way was it true live coverage. And hopefully names were changed to protect the mindlessly stupid.

What idiot would pay an inflated price for an iPhone on eBay? There's no accounting for greedy bastards.

I live in Dallas and I know someone that was in the area of that store that day. They actually told me about this before it was on the local TV news, and they swore that it was all real.

"It was clearly a staged re-enactment of what might have taken place. No way was it true live coverage. "

Perhaps... but notice that there was no follow-up footage of the woman. She's probably too pissed/humiliated to appear on camera again.

it's surprising that they had the camera at the right location at the right time.

if this is true, HAHA !

I wouldn't be surprised if she tries to sue the guy she bought the first-in-line space from, on the basis that he knew her scheme would fail. If she's low enough to attempt a buy-out/ebay scam, she's low enough to find an attorney to represent her. Destined to fail.

The two Apple Stores in my city STILL are in stock; and I am still laughing at the news showing a line outside stores on TV the day of the launch--Apple had the last laugh with a 6 pm launch, everyone got a chance to get one & they're still available..

@ Denny ...ebay shut-ins.

Hmmm... why does Forest Gump come to mind. "Stupid is as stupid does". lol

ROFL!

I laughed my ass off!

Just goes to show how stupid some people can be.

All she had to do is look on the internet and she would found out the AT&T;rules.

LLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOLLLLL!

why would anyone buy over ebay? Why would a person not buy from Apple or AT&T;? Am I missing something?

@grigori ...she can't sue for her failure to acquire public knowledge. Serves her right. I've been victimized by people like her on Ebay, I don't even sell my used Macs or lap tops on there any more. I go to places like Power Max and Ifixit and pwrbookresq. Legitimate site that give you fair market value for you apple stuff in trade for new stuff or just a check.

I was near there, and heard about it before it went on the news. The reporter that interviewed me was the same reporter on the footage. He is the main on location reporter for FOX here in Dallas. It's real.

Darwin iz in ur poket takin ur dollerz!

You might have gone to ebay if the stores had actually been sold out-they weren't (and aren't ), so the ebay ploy should be considered a total failure. Anyone who NOW goes to ebay truly is a moron.

Yes, it was real, it was on local station and their web site. For those who are incredulous, remember, the hype was such that every singe local TV news crew had their people at their AT&T;or Apple stores filming the lines, interviewing people. This was a massive media event (or did everyone already forget??). As soon as they saw that there was an 'entrepreneurial' person with (what sounded like) an interesting plan, they jumped on it. She should have know that there was a limit; she couldn't have know that Apple (and, to an extent, AT&T;) had enough devices for almost everyone in line.

She still might have a chance to get at least some of that money back, if she decides to sell the device on e-Bay (or Craig's list) now, since apparently as of today, the stores completely depleted their stock of iPhones.

HA HA !!!

I have seen iPhones for sale on Ebay in the UK.

Makes me laugh if anyone from the UK or Europe buys them as they wont work outside the US as AT&T;have no network presence in Europe.

I feel sorry for the poor idiots who spends over the retail price on Wbay who thinks the iPhone will work in Europe.

Actually, she is very lucky!

iPhones on ebay are NOT selling for big profits. Or in many cases, not selling at all.

If she bought $100,000 worth of iPhones, she would have lost much more that just $800.

And she made it on TV.
(granted, that's not the type of publicity I would have wanted)

@ The Other Steve

Good point.

I saw FALSE!! This seems completely setup, and I wouldn't expect much less from Fox News.

I didn't ask for this, I distinctly ordered Ham and Swiss on Rye. What is this, American cheese?

Okay, where the hell are the Mac stories? Leopard, new hardware, anyone? Beuller?

Fscking eBay vulture. Serves her right. Pisses me off when people buy up stock of a hot item to profit from it on eBay, preventing the people who REALLY want the product from getting one unless they're willing (and able) to pay a hefty premium.

Now if only Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo could pull off a launch like this.

Damn, they left out the bit where she swallows a bottle of pills and slashes her wrists.

I have just one question: How does such an obvious retard get her hands on $100K in the first place? Now that's weird!

The girl in front of me in line (I was 4th) had her phone pre-sold on e-bay for $2,000 plus shipping. Not bad for a day's work, eh?

Maybe you've heard of the Wii and the DS Lite? Now if Stevo could pull off launches like that..... He'd probably end up like Bill G.

Well there are plenty of iPhones on sale on eBay now!

Would the political idiots please shut up? Thank you.

my dad lives outside of texas (wylie)

he saw this on the news, apparently it is all true.

and most ebay scums take out loans for big purchases and then make a small profit after they sell their shit.

mdn word: problems. muhahaha

"I have just one question: How does such an obvious retard get her hands on $100K in the first place? Now that's weird!"

If she's like a lot of people who think they've figured out a get rich quick scheme, she probably re-financed her home to pull out all the equity.

iPhone Brand New in Package - 8GB

It's too bad you can't view this video on the iPhone.

It's too bad you can't view this video on the iPhone.

Yes. I agree. I saw this article first on my iPhone, at a pit stop between gigs. But only just now watched the video, on a Mac, after arriving at my destination.

Is YouTube H.264 conversion only for the iPhone/AppleTV/LG Phones? Or will their website videos eventually be converted as well?

Sorry, the above video is "live leak" not YouTube. But my question stands.

Flashing all that cash, I'm surprised she didn't get mugged in broad daylight !!

Being a teacher who runs a school broadcast, and uses Macs by the way to generate graphics and edit all the footage, it wouldn't have been hard for someone to create that footage themselves.

Not that we make fake news stories.

And the mic? We have our own official mic as well when we do interviews. So those folks could have bought one somewhere.

Who's the dick head who would pay 1000 or more for the same product you can get in the shop for half the price.

By the way I'm over stocked with Playstation 3's if anyone wants one. I have 25. 200 dollars each. please buy one.

This dumb broad was driving a Porsche Cayenne SUV so I'm sure she could afford it. I wonder how many PS3's she hocked on ebay to buy that thing.

Even the great Woz only got two phones. Damn that woman's arrogance for thinking she could buy more than Woz.
