Grrraaah! This is so frustrating *head desk*...*repeatedly*. The prices are sooo ridiculous. I've been semi-lurking in this forum for the past few months especially the Garage Sales and have been watching the prices go up n down. I'm getting seasick just reading them. 4.5K for a phone??? Granted a very NICE phone but common! That's a down-payment for a car!

What's worse, everytime I make the arduous trek down to LY to 'check out' and oh-for-the -love-of-God finally buy one, the bl@#dy buaya's grin their toothy grin and quote some random yet mind-numbingly high price I come ever so closer to losing my lunch...I mean do u want my first born child as well?? Kidding.

I want an iPhone so bad I dream of it in my sleep! *sob**pout* cry.gif

I actually had a guy pull out his 2G 8gig out of his pants and asked if I wanted it for 2.2K. Like eww, no. Its got your oily smudges and whats more its 2.2K for a USED phone complete with his natural microbial flora. Colour me excited.... OK, I'm not against second hand phones, just pissed of at the price and the utterly oily, condescending way he offered it to me. Just cause I'm not a dude doesnt mean I'm stupid. Grrrrrh!!!

Right....rant over. Thanks for listening. Not targeting anyone in the forum or anything, just hoping for some sympathy and a shoulder to cry on.....if anyone understands, its you guys here.

Oh and yeah, hate auctions, boss kinda looks at me funny when I head-desk at work. *double sob*

Nice rant. Most of the people that want iPhone will do what you did ... the head-desk thing. Offering a used 8gb phone for 2.2k is utterly nonsense. He's just taking advantage of the tock shortage situation. Its wise of you to come here and survey first rather than getting knock off later. If you have the patients to wait, the phone will drop in price.

p/s - nice avatar. Is that the red car transformers (forgot the name already)

Thanks for listening. And I PRAY to whichever deity that will listen the price drop will happen soon....
After I posted last night, someone put up an add in Garage Sales for 2G iPhone for 1.4K. Was just starting to pm d dude back n forth but less than 30 mins later it was SOLD! Grrrrr........*head desk* -again-

Yeah Sideswipe from Transformers! rclxms.gif
