Everything you receive when you buy the iPhone 7 (or any phone), the phone itself, the charger, the earphones, the adapter, the box, the paper documentation, the services you receive after the purchase (updates, warranty, etc.) are all included in the price you pay.

Just because the various pieces you receive aren't priced separately doesn't mean you aren't paying for them. And my point is valid regardless of whether that adapter costs $0.09, $9.00, or $90.00.

In the world of consumer products, nothing is free.

You can insult me all you want, but in doing so, you are just making yourself look bad, just like the people who arrive with the "Apple is gay" comments.

Wrong. Words and context. People on welfare get things for free. To them. There is a cost to others, namely taxpayers like me. But for welfare folks, it is free. Got that? So things are free to some people who receive them. You need some schooling, child.

My granddaughter gets a lot of things for free. When we go to Costco or Trader Joe's, she gets samples of food items... for free. Most of the time, we have no intention of buying the product that she is sampling. To her and us, it is a free item which she enjoys eating. It may cost the store, the maker, or other customers who buy the product, but to us it is free. Got that? Same for coupons. At times, goods are offered for free when you hand over a coupon. It's free to us if we buy no other products. Someone else is paying for it, but for us it's free. Got that?

I don't intentionally insult you, I'm just chiding you as I would a child. My 4-year-old granddaughter quickly learns when corrected, but you seem to be stuck on ignorance.
