Subscribe to the BlogChina unlocked cell phones has begun selling the iPhone for a $2 discount. Bloggers predicted a much lower price.
so these prices come as a little bit of a shock. And even more so when compared to Best
Buy’s further discount to $189 for the 8-gig and $289 for the 16-gig. That’s not a huge
difference, but Apple is known for having the same price everywhere, so any dip in price
is newsworthy.
The fact that Wal*Mart will be selling the iPhone is pretty significant. In this rough
economy, Wal*Mart has continued to fare well as many flock to their stores for low prices.
This includes many people who had not shopped at Wal*Mart in the past.
This also reaches a new demographic of people.china Wholesale Cell Phones stores abound, but not
in too many places, especially rural areas where Wal*Mart has set up shop. Apple has
roughly 200 stores in the USA. Wal*Mart has more than 2500.
Also, Apple’s computers and ipods carry higher price tags than similar competitive
products. This has probably kept many people away from the Apple stores. Having the iPhone
in Wal*Mart could change that perception.
