Well ya, some people like them for collections. And to aahitman, dont expect to sell yours beyond 20.00 cuz they aren't worth that much. Hmmmm to Joe, I'd love to but I live in Ocoee and im 15 lol. Only time i'd go through I-4 if my parents are going out to a mall around that area or something.:angry:
This isn't fair! Lol! Most of the time I pass I-4 on saturday, so there is no chance I'd be able to do that

You mean I could get 20.00? For an empty bag?

300.00 for air? I'm in the wrong business.

I should have a bag but since AT&T blocked my attempts at launch-day iphoneage I missed this year's. I'd give $12 with shipping by paypal if anyone wants to mail theirs to me.

nobopyon
07-17-2008, 12:29 PM
Since the description of the box doesn't state "there is no phone" or metion to it...

I wonder some people think phone is included... or maybe phone "IS" included..??

hmm.... strange world...

What the...
It's now $355, with 21 bidders!!! Just look at the pictures, there's no phone! You think some people think there is? Are there 21 people that stupid? Maybe the bidders are people who have very limited english skills, and all they see is the box, and think the phone is included, despite the item description.
Can't wait to see how high it goes. I'm gonna watch this one!

I thought about selling my box and bag on ebay, but more I think about it, the box that went up to $355!? must be faulse ad. for people to bid on it that much...

So, I changed of my mind to sell on ebay..

500 is incredibly amazing. for a box.

dude, you serious?
just go to apple and ask for a bag. for free.
unless they dont have. then spend 10 dollars

Dukeboy0169
07-17-2008, 03:50 PM
Maybe those people actually believe the i in iphone stands for invisible, and the phone is transparent.

Crazy thing is, if the people bidding just arent reading the auction, theyre going to be obligated to pay the final price for an empty box.

Im sure people get away with this every day on evilbay. Post a picture of a car, state that the wheels are for sale only, not the vehicle. People will bid thinking theyre getting the whole car when the auction clearly states its only for the wheels. Bing, bang, boom, you made $15 grand on some $200 wheels. :)

Dude, I don't understand why you just don't buy it on ebay? There are tons of people selling their bags near your price range.

Pimpboy51
07-17-2008, 03:58 PM
I can't because they all either accept paypal or credit cards or immediate payment required. I AM ONLY 15 I CANT OWN A CREDIT CARD YET. That's why I came here because here is where I bought the first gen bag. I only pay with either money orders or cash.

07-17-2008, 04:02 PM
dont you have parents?
would they object to 10 dollars?
sorry i cant help man, im still waiting for mine

No what if you have a job? You have a bank account dont you? When you deposit money in your account, they should give you a debit card to use YOUR money.

It really should not matter how old you are. As long as you have a job, and you need to cash or deposit a check, you should be able to have a bank account, and once you do have a bank account setup they should give you a debit card with your name on it, and they will ask you to enter a 4 digit # you want as your pin.

Should take about a week or two, to get your debit card in the mail. They will also give you checks with your name on it in case you need to use them.

Hope that helps too.

it think there's confusion between an ATM card and a DEBIT card. Since the debit can be accepted as credit, there are rules/regulations that stipulate you need to be 18. But as someone listed before, there are ways around them.

I used to have one but my mom managed it because I was only 9 Y.O when I opened it. I closed it after I wasn't earning money and they started taking money away from it.

That is incorrect. I had a debit card at 16, I was able to buy things online with it, go to an ATM and get cash out if needed. Why would need to be 18 to use your debit card as a Credit Card? Yes, you can use it like a Credit Card but remember, its still a debit card, and the money comes right from your account.

Well with a debit card you can swipe it.

I choose Suntrust over the rest.

Just find something that works for you. I liked the program Suntrust had for me, and my savings account. Just look around and find a FREE checking account. Thats what you want. You dont want to have to pay for a checking account.

Believe me, after working in banking for 4 years, I am well aware of the different 'cards' and the function they serve. :laugh2: Again, I reiterate: there are ways around the rules, which you or someone else already posted.
