Apple iPhone 14 series mobile phones have finally met consumers. Offline purchases have rarely been queued up in recent years. Among them, Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen are still the hottest market and the strongest consumer desire. There are the most people queuing to pick up machines on site. Everyone wants to get the latest iPhone 14 series mobile phones as soon as possible, and they can also show their uniqueness and ability to try out immediately.
Of course, the queues are no longer as crazy as before, and people will not stay up late to queue up, but they just slowly gather together in the early morning waiting for the store to open the door to welcome guests. Among them, there are about 200 people queuing in the largest number of stores in Shenzhen. As before, the "scalpers" are holding in front of the door, preparing to earn different price difference opportunities. Some people take machines in time to make a profit of a difference in price. This is similar to the young people's crazy appointments for commemorative coins. Everyone is attracted by the possibility of hot speculation at the first time. If the goods are picked up and shipped in time, there is still a chance to earn thousands of dollars.
"Scalper" also saw the opportunity to make a difference, so he enjoyed it and participated. Some people disdain this, and some people think that scalpers are messing up the market. In fact, scalpers are just a short-term opportunity to make a difference. Only with market demand can people who pursue them gain short-term opportunities. Many scalpers also have the process of placing the final goods in their hands. Do you still remember the movie "Miracle Stupid Kid"? It is understandable that seeking fleeting business opportunities is one of the focus of this business society's pursuit.
Of course, for more users, purchasing is for their own use, not for speculation on the meager benefits brought by price changes. Users who want to enjoy the new phone as soon as possible are undoubtedly loyal Apple fans. It is said that the price difference for the first day of the goods is around 1,000 yuan, and the premium space of scalpers will also decline rapidly with the increasing number of new machines. This is a process of supply and demand balance, which is in line with more business opportunities in the Shenzhen market.
On the first day of picking up the machine, the price given by the scalper was: the repurchase price of the most popular Pro Max model was 1,000 yuan on the original price, and the selling price was 1,500 yuan; the repurchase of the Pro model was 800 yuan, and the selling price was 1,000 yuan. In some stores in metropolitan cities, iPhone 14 has a small amount of stock to be purchased directly, which is why some users have to queue up even if they have not made a successful appointment, which is that they hope to be able to purchase it on site. However, there are no Pro and Pro Max models, only the most ordinary iPhone 14.
It is reported that the purple version of iPhone 14 released this time is the most popular, and the price is one to two hundred yuan higher than the non-purple version. Interestingly, on the opening day, Cook also posted a message on the self-media, saying, "I'm glad that customers can experience the charm of our latest products. Behind this day is years of hard work - thank you for everyone who helped achieve it! So excited for our customers to experience the magic of our latest products. A day like today has been years in the making — thank you to everyone that’s made it possible. "It's pride for Cook.
It is worth noting that although the market attention of the iPhone 14 series is very high, some scalpers said that the price increase of the 14 series is obviously not as good as the 13 series. Because when the iPhone 13 series was released, the iPhone 13 Pro Max 256G was sold on the first day with an additional price of more than 1,600 yuan. But this year it won't work, of course, a big reason is that there is no stock on site. Some private dealers give the price: each color of the iPhone 14 512G is 499 yuan lower than the official price, and each color of the Pro Max 512G, which has a lot of price increases, requires an additional price of 1,700 yuan.
In addition, the latest research report of well-known Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo also stated that the pre-order results of iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus are worse than those of iPhone SE 3 and iPhone 13 mini. Moreover, due to the rise in the US dollar and the depreciation of the RMB, it may affect the sales of Apple's 14 series. However, when the "Double 11" in the Chinese market is about to begin to warm up, the iPhone 14 series may become the most popular and pursued model in the market. In this regard, other mobile phone manufacturers still find it difficult to match.
