Uh, tacticalogic? Do you always post outdated FUD??? That article was FUD when it was posted last year and it's even more FUD now. Look at the date of publication; Sep 24, 2014 6:08pm. Did you really think no one would notice????

Is the follow up to that post at #13, linked to an article dated Sept 25, 2015 that says it's still going on FUD too?

Nope. I even posted that when it was going on Friday. . . but the 2014 article claiming that iPhone sales were fading because black market prices had dropped to just 100% more than the official price on Apple's website on the day the iPhone 6 was released was FUD!

What is going on over in China is a real problem where scalpers have figured out a way around the system Apple had come up with to prevent scalpers from cutting out real consumers from buying iPhones . . . Apple has taken steps, I understand to prevent it from being used again. They are going to use the log of actual TCP/IP address of the buyers and allow only two iPhones to each address to eliminate such computerized buying programs in the future. Too bad this was not anticipated by the Chinese Apple Store this year. They have been logging the TCP/IP, but there was no routine to prevent repeat orders. Now there will be.
