LOL! $230 ? Why can't people just WAIT a day or so if they can't make it the DAY OF? Are you gonna die if you happen to get it a few days later? :-p Geez everyone...

I think it would be good if they went out to all the lines and got everyone's driver's license and used that as the list for people to be in line and get phones.

If you are not on the list from the driver's license check, you don't get an iPhone.

^^^Yeah except more people will come and ignore your "list".

UNLESS you guys are dedicated to that list and you're willing to fight for it. (happened to me before, we had a list but all the oncoming people ignored it)

Please...get a job! Are you that desperate for money you need to sell spots in line? I want the iPhone on day 1 but if i can't get one due to demand i'll wait. I would never ever pay someone for their spot, that's ridiculous. Why would you take someone's spot who actually has the money for the iPhone just so you can make a couple of hundred bucks? Are you that broke, seriously? I think that a lot of people saying they will buy the iPhone won't be able to b/c of money. so if everyone just ignores these fools selling their spots in line, just wait and don't take their spot, b/c when the time comes they won't be able to buy one. hence, they waste hours of time in line only to feel like a complete moron, and us paying customers will be able to get one!

I don't know if this has been mentioned somewhere else, but the best system I heard of was a an AT&T store in Boston was planning to hand out bracelets at 10 am. Then those with bracelets could come back at 6pm and be taken care of.
Eliminates the "crazed" crowds.
The article also said that it was the exception, as most stores did not have a similar plan. Go figure.

This will never happen. IF you don't have service with Cingular/At&t and are not the primary account holder, then you won't be in line. I'm sure the managers and crowd control personnel will handle little schemes like this.

You don't need to be the primary account holder, just need to have the last 4 of their social. I've purchased phones like this for years.

Hopefully. I know to change any account details you just need to have the last 4 OVER the phone that is. I didn't realize this was allowed IN person because they could see you weren't the account holder, If they asked for ID.

Let's not rehash this argument. This thread is about someone selling spots in line. We've already gone over the primary account holder and the SS# scenario.

IF you can get away with it, then more power to ya.
No argument. I had the same questions and went the my local AT&T store 3 days ago and had them answered. The info i gave you guys is what i was told and what i have been doing for YEARS. Do what you like. But think about it, what if the primary lives in another state? You can't be expected to fly them in just you can upgrade your phone plan. That's why they last 4 works over the phone and works in store.

Anyways, on with the thread...
