Personally I think that Apple values very little the iPhone that people give since I finished looking at what they would give me for my iPhone 5 of 32 GB free from the factory with less than 1 year and they would only give me € 378
And that now, when the 5s comes out, they will give even less.
and those prices are in perfect condition? Will this be applicable in all countries with a physical store?
Sorry but they don't need an iPhone, they won't give you almost the same for what you bought it, they have plenty of iPhones, if someone gave you more it would be a common user.
At least apple receives what you have as a payment difference but where have they seen that in other companies? and it is not x defending but that at least they receive it
There is something that I do not understand, I give my iPhone 5, they give me € 384 and pay € 300 for the new one, in addition to the new iPhone they give me a gift card with € 300 ???
"The employee will give the customer his new iPhone with a gift card equal to the difference to pay to buy the new iPhone and a plastic bag."
The card will be 384 and you will only pay the difference of what the new one costs.
Well, how will it be in countries like Colombia that do not have physical apple stores. not even online.
as will be? well nothing. it is only for physical apple stores. You would have to go to some country that has an apple store and that's it.
And in which countries will that be valid?
to me for my iPhone 4 of 3 months of purchase and without any scratches or anything because since I uncovered it I put a protective band on the front and back and on the sides I have a cover ... And they only give me 120 euros hahaha when I paid in Colombia 900 thousand pesos that would be about 380 euros hahahahahahaha, what a lying down ...
they give you more if you sell it is sanandresito haha
Hahahahaha yeah, they give me more and they top me a blackberry hahahahaha
But it is that the new iPhone 4 or not is already a cell phone of 2 generations ago and there is little left to be 3.
Yes, I know that, only that it seems to me «comical» in a certain way that for a cell phone, whatever generation it is, which was worth 380 euros, Apple says that it would only give me 120 ...
I just looked at the white iphone 5 16Gb and I get € 396 not bad… ..
In Mexican pesos, how much would they give me for my iPhone 4S and how much would I have to give a difference!
In my opinion it is a joke or I have misunderstood. A 5 GB iPhone16 that cost 679 euros less than a year ago gives you 350 in perfect condition. If you buy the iphone5 again, you will have to pay another 679 euros, either the one now or the one that is going to come out. That is, having an iPhone5 has cost you 350 euros a year, imagine that you buy a car for 20.000 euros and after a year you sell it to the dealer for 10.000
