Yeah you're not making a premium of 250 per phone I ain't even making that

Whats your price?
It has to be worth it for me. Id rather get it cleared up before going to line up. If you are not making atleast 250 , why bother doing it? $100-150 to stay in line for 8+ hrs is 10-15/hr. Can make more than that at work ...

what would be the range in profit OP would make from the phone?

and how many phones can one person get?

i think it's fair to ask for 50% of the profit OP would make from each person waiting in line.

$8.33 / hour

To sleep with OP overnight, outside Apple store.

- Well below even the lowest minimum wage in Canada.
- No employee benefits (coffee, breakfast, wifi, sleeping bag)
- Poor working conditions. 4°C expected for Thursday night.

What a bargain!

I should ban OP for trying to solicit services that will ultimately go towards profitting.

Who else thinks this is a violation of uses for RS?

I don't see anything wrong with it considering the effort is minimal and people get to choose to do it or not.

Many people on revscene has contacted me and will be lining up with me at the Metro Town Apple store.

Also breakfast (Mc Dicks, and Timmy starbucks will be provided all night)


It's really just friends bringing friends to chill and make some easy money.

1 guy on revscene... i am not sure if I should post his name or not is bringing 9 friends... and they are planning to have a poker game there while lining up... easy money :S

At least 25g I'm estimating.
OP's bringing back at least 35-60 units to Taiwan, while yielding at least 100% profit per iPhone4s.

i think 100% is over optimistic but yea major rip off to those standing in the cold for a mere $100

Hyde claims he can get $20,000HKD per unit.
Let's ignore his bullshit, and assume even a number of $15,000. That's still $2027 CAD.

iPhone 4S 64gb with tax comes to $950.
Then you have the $100 going to slavery.
OP can still yield cost to $1k per 64gb unit.

I'm not sure if Metrotown's store will even have that many units...or allow the same guy to purchase again and again (even if he does have the allocation.)

30 Craigslist strangers....say 20 shows up + 3 from RS + friends and family.
That's at least 30 people X 2 device each. 60+ units.

Now I understand where OP get his money to buy his C63 from

again just my opinion $2027 is a fantasy figure. nobody is going to buy it at that price considering that alot of people consider 4s to not be a significant upgrade

i say 1300$ cad per phone is probably the highest OP can get. I sold an iphone 4 for $1000 locally so i guess $1300 could be possible....

than again i don't drive a c63



and to xilley junkies don't have 800$ and they can't be trusted with more than 2$

^ thats why he needs his bunch of friends to be there watching and giving them the money to pay and etc
but i dont know.. i just called my cousin in taiwan and hes saying theres no iphone4s yet
so to me 2000 seems reasonable as you said you could already sell locally for 1000
i dont see why it couldnt be doubled especially when its half way across the world and they dont have stock
