iPhone For Sale

Comments (Archived):

1. ‘Fuck Apple.’ – best quote ever .. okay maybe just quote of the day .. but its defiantly legit

2. fuck apple too. i got one for someone in singapore for xmas, and i am going to be soooo absolutely embarassed.

3. If no one goes $249, I will go $149 plus lunch on me in NYC.** $25 per person or less 🙂

4. 325 – Email me if good.

5. Easy with the language there Fred, I hope your kids don’ t read this blog. You can downgrade the firmware to 1.1.1 or less, and then unlock it. Here’s how: http://www.tuaw.com/2007/11…Dont you have a blackberry, which you can have unlocked and use for travel?If so, why unlock the iphone? Just for the sake of it?

   1. If I had an iPhone I would unlock it, too. I use T-mobile and I am loathe to switch to AT&T and get myself back into a contract.I know Fred also has T-mobile. It is cheaper and better service. Why not unlock the phone?

   2. For my daughter who does read this blogI don’t view cursing now and then as a bad thing as long as its deserved and infrequentfred

6. I don’t know why anyone would buy an iPhone at this point, considering a 3G version is just around the corner. I don’t know what I’m going to do between now and then (as my iPhone got stolen Friday) but a new iPhone purchase certainly isn’t in the picture.

7. is this public bidding (like an auction). If so, i’ll bid $249. I have been thinking of getting one, but undecided. A discount would put me over top.

8. Further proof that the endless endevour to increase profit every quarter eventually will lead to diminishing returns As long as answering to bottom line motivated shareholders, and supplying rediculous salaries to cheif officers remain the focus of corporate culture, we’ll only see more of this shithead mentality.Live by obsoltete, die by obsolete.

9. fuck apple, long apple.Awesome.Can I use this title for my book?’Making Money Off Trends…Don’t Let Personal Opinions Cloud Stock Decisions’

10. Yawn… phone bought with full knowledge of it’s iimits and constraints… what’s the issue here Fred? Really?I mean Apple’s very upfront with the conditions – if someone doesn’t like them (I don’t) DON’T BUY THE DAMN PHONE. But buying it (yes, I know, it was a gift) and then continually whining about those conditions is juvenile.Should they have shipped it unlocked? Hell yes. But they didn’t. If that turns out to be a bad decision they’ll suffer for it by missing sales targets. But I just can’t get find any sympathy for someone who knows the conditions, gets the phone and then acts all offended.

    1. I still love Apple, just love it. New store in Short Hills Mall is to die for. I am joining the cult.

    2. I am not asking for sympathyI want a buyer to take the god damn thing off my hands!fred

11. Fred; you are in NYC, iPhone as well. Why in the world your iPhone “speaks” French? Is it virgin or you did something and you cannot recover now?I offer you $300 including shipment to France with its invoice…And seriously if you hate Apple, why are you buying another unocked iPhone? 🙂

12. 350 (plus I’ll cover any postage expense) e-mail me if good.

13. With a Turbo-Sim you can unlock the 1.1.2-Version. Mail me, if you need help!Best regardsThomas

    1. hey budi got one too. brand new out of box 1.1.2 if u can help me unlock this i ll pay yahelpcheers. [email protected]

14. Fred, I enjoyed watching your frustration and struggle with this birthday present right from the beginning up until now. I think you will not get rid of this stigma just by simple selling, it will stay with you for quite some time. You should either use it (either with a stupid ATT or unlocked) or give it as gift to whoever else – just because it is the birthday present from your loved ones! Making money out of birthday presents sounds very stupid to me, sharing the gift seems to me perfectly ok. Whatever you are going to do, do it now and fast, because the whole frustration is with you already for long time and you need some kind of rebalancing/reconciliation.PS I am happy you are still long apple and do believe there is good reason Steve has done it that way, as it has proved in similar other cases with him. Although personally, I do not like locking as well.

    1. That phone that was a gift was stolenI replaced it and gave it to my daughter who uses it unlocked and loves all the third party apps she can find via installerThis one is for my other daughter but we agreed last night to give up on it and she will continue to use her blackberry which she lovesfred

15. i’m in for 350 and will pick up anywhere in NYC

16. I’ll up my bid to $375 so. I’m outside of North America but will cover shipping. Would so much like to get this for my wife as a Christmas present.

17. My bid is $500, on two conditions:1. You donate $251 to a charity of choice.2. You take some time to read and comment on a powerpoint of my business plan. Once you have, you’ll understand condition 1 as well.I am based in the Netherlands and will take care of shipping cost or pick up the phone personally if you like my business plan so much that you want to meet in person.

    1. Hey Fred,I’d like you to read my pitch; however, i wouldn’t give you any conditions like Gilbert grape did! I’m in the us incidently!

18. Normally I feel the same way as Fred, but after a minor disaster this weekend with my locked iPhone which resulted in a screwed up touch screen, I went to Apple store (Soho) and a “genius” took one look at it and said “how about I just give you a new one” and sent me packing. The wait took 20 mins and the conversation about :30 seconds.Its all love / hate.

19. fuck apple, long apple – ah haha.thank you google, long google.

    1. I just wrote in another emailFuck oilLong oilfred

20. I’ll buy it! I actually have a 1.1.2 unlocked (still with 1.1.2) via a downgrade to 1.1.1, unlock and then upgrade. I’d post the instructions but i can’t find them at the minute as they were spread across about 4 different forums and it took me about 6 hours to do it! But worth it…..So i’ll do the next best thing and take this off your hands….

21. What’s the Serial Number of the phone?

    1. Fred,I’ll pay $399 for it if you donate the $150 over your asking price to a charity of your choice. I’ll pay for shipping.Jim

22. I don’t get this “fuck apple” stuff… bwahhh!!! I can’t unlock my phone… waaaa. They didn’t release the phone to be unlocked. You know that, AND you knew it when you embarked on this journey. Fuck Apple? No. I say fuck YOU sir.

    1. i was waiting for that

       1. I’m surprised it took so long for the Apple Fanboy to show up. I thought they were much more efficient than that.

23. I guess it doesn’t count that in my time zone it’s already midnight? In any case, my offer still stands: $500 on the two conditions mentioned in my previous post. I will check this page tomorrow morning first thing!

    1. $350.no strings attached
