Interview with Apple’s flagship store on Fifth Avenue in New York

The drastic profits that have been dealt with by the handcuffs have caused China's aquatic dealers to go to the United States to “weave nets” with great fanfare. Yesterday, a picture of the "Oxbow Party" carrying a woven bag in the United States to snap up an iPad 2 was widely reproduced, causing heated debate.

The iPad 2 has been the "prey" of the "cattle party" since its release last week. The news said that an Asian "Cattle" party was entrenched at the Apple flagship store on Fifth Avenue in New York. They hired people to line up for the iPad 2. As Apple’s policy is to limit the purchase of two iPad 2s per person, it is said that there were more than 200 people lined up outside the Fifth Avenue flagship store the day before yesterday. The earning path of the “Xiniu Dang” is simple: hire people to buy, then send it to mainland China at high prices, and the price of resale has almost doubled.

In fact, on the first day of the iPad 2 US release on March 12, a number of parallel importers from China emerged. In Zhongguancun, parallel traders generally reflected that the current supply of iPad 2 is still very tight and the price is still not moving. The lowest price is the WIFI 16G version. Yesterday's quotation ranged from 6700 yuan to 7200 yuan, and it was a price point. There was almost no room for bargaining. "The price is too high, we do not make money." An upstream channel operator told reporters that there was only a small amount of shipments in the previous few days. There were only three or four units a day and the night before came more than 30 units. However, all of them were taken away by various merchants. . As for the sources of the channels, most of the aquatic dealers are secretive and claim to have relations in the United States. On Taobao, parallel traders are busy, but the price is cheaper than Zhongguancun. A merchant told reporters that it sold 3 units yesterday.

Apple's new product has become the target of the "cattle party". At the Apple flagship store in mainland China, the “cattle” is lingering all day. Because the iPad 2 has not yet been sold in mainland China, they have almost manipulated the shipment of the Apple flagship store iPhone 4. The reporters saw at Apple's flagship stores in Sanlitun and Xidan that the “cattle” had ordered mercenaries to collect their ID cards, queued up, and paid for goods at the site. Apple store staff have become accustomed to this. The current iPhone 4 market price is still around 6,000 yuan.
