Thursday

Usually i do not post things like this...

but i just felt i had to have a little rant.

So yeh i found out the iPhone had droped $200 while reading engadget this morning. Sounds like great news doesn't it (for when it hits the Europeon market anyway haha) and it is good news! Price drops are always good news right?

Well not exactly to some people, i was reading the comments and discovered that people who had already bought the phone are highly annoyed and want there $200 back. Now i don't know about you but that phone was not worth $599 to start with. So if you went out and purchased it for that price then tuff. You obviously thought it was resonable, you could afford it and you "needed" it. Price drops and increases happen on hundreds and thousands of products a day.

If you did your grocery shopping one day and a month later all the items you bought where half price, would you pester for that money back? Yeh ok it sucks when you spend money on something and all of a sudden it drops in price, but as noted above, you thought it was worth that high price tag and you felt like being an early adopter.

If it went up $200 i bet you wouldn't run crying you want to pay the extra $200 would you ;)
