Although most users Apple of products in the Czech Republic and Slovakia does not have high hopes that the new iPhone 5c was a great success, the card turns against their expectations. Apple because only today he launched pre-orders for the new one iPhone, and while in our country its price seems relatively disadvantageous, officially Apple Online Store already reports the first shortcomings. More precisely, it is the yellow version iPhone 5c in the 16GB capacity version, but that's not the biggest attraction. The most interesting fact is that Apple sold out of non-subsidized models within a few hours.
T-Mobile is currently the only carrier in the US to provide the new iPhone even without a contract, in which case the user must buy the phone at full price without any discounts. In the case of the 16GB model, it is $549, which translates to €415. Apple so he showed again that, despite not too positive expectations, he can really sell out the new plastic one iPhone, regardless of what price he sells it for. On the other hand, we cannot confirm how many pieces of yellow 16GB iPhone 5C American T-Mobile received.
the fact that the price of the device is significantly lower in the USA than here - and what is the price here?
Conversion of 600 euros
So 15 or 16 GB?
Noticeably higher? This has been claimed for years, but if you add VAT and CLO to the price, we are at the same price. It is of course more expensive in the USA, it lists the price without VAT, it is different in every state.
enko – here it is 600 euro.
Lukáš Valenta: It stands in the USA iPhone 5C $549 excl. tax. That's USD 1.33 per one at the current rate euro less than 413 EUR. With 20% VAT, it is less than 496 EUR. Apple set the price at EUR 599. There is no duty. So the difference is more than 100 euros. Is that supposed to be the same price?
Hello all fans apple, I'm currently overseas and I'm coming back on 24.9.
I wanted to make an offer to someone who doesn't want to wait for iPhone 5S until November on official Czech/Slovak distribution,
that I can bring a couple of pieces to important prisoners.
The phone will be bought in brick and mortar Apple Store with date 20.-23.9. unlocked with document and international 1-year warranty.
The offer is not for spinsters and savers who will want to discount-save a hundred,
but for serious interested parties who want to be among the first in CR/SR with a new flagship Apple.
More info at I will buyiPhone5S@gmail.com
PS: I know this belongs to the bazaar forum, but it's on topic ;)
There is no duty?
We can't count on the current exchange rate, it's stupid to change the price then, they have to count on some more unfavorable exchange rate for them.
We will add more expensive distribution.
There is a difference, but not that striking.
I already wrote it once, so just copy-paste:

Apple it's not for the Slovaks, it's always been like that, it's their policy and the weak market and the purchasing power of the Eastern Bloc and developing countries won't do anything about it.
Apple offered bakelite 5C, which socks and groupies dreamed would be sold in brick-and-mortar stores Applu for 100 words, tribute Apple he offered it for 600 and it's the end of love, I'm tearing up the photos..
Personally, I wouldn't pay even 5 crowns for a 5C, my wife likes it, I can talk her into a 5 for free.. her only argument is that it's also nice in color..
I like the 5S, that's why I've already pre-ordered it, since it ended up stopping me on the 5.
I admit, I don't understand those comments Apple iddown, etc.
Why? Because you don't have 600 euro on the phone? Because on the 600 euro Do you have to work for a month?
There are countries where you can make money on it for 1 and a half days, and that's exactly what the market is for Apple, that's the target group Applu, those are the countries where Apple profits.
For our market, there are interesting brands like Sony and I don't know what Hyundai and Kia.. and Asus and shit, a junkyard of cars and electronics..
I thought that Apple the forum is about a person's relationship to Apple, I would never think of going to the HTC forum and swearing at them about the prices and flavors of this bike.
I want HTC Xperia, I'm leaving z Apple forum, I look for their forum and quietly chat with users and fans of the brand I'm on.
Volvo costs 60, Kia 20.. In Kia, I have a backup camera, heated seats, Blis, goat and a lot of other things included in the price, at Volvo I have to pay ten extra for that.. even so, I won't buy a Kia..
Nobody knows the price for the Czech Republic. In Britain, the price of the 5C is about 14 CZK. The 200S cost that much on Monday. I don't see anything unusual about the 4C being so popular. They can still have a cool gadget for the price of the 5S that's a week old iPhone 5. Anyone from the middle class in the US would earn it in three days. And that's millions of people in the US.
@zitta66
Consent. The only thing I will change is Volvo for BMW :)
dfx: in the states the warranty is 1 year, while here it is 2 years.
dfx: in the USA, iP2S 4GB with a 8-year warranty costs 549 dollars, while here it costs 9990 CZK, which is less than in the USA.
Even if the phone in the USA costs the same as here, it is still less for them than for us, there is a completely different standard of living and people earn much more than here.
zitta66: I totally agree with you, but I certainly wouldn't consider Sony a ridiculous brand. OK, they have a wide range of products, many of which are also old, but quite a few products are of high quality.
+ I don't think that "Sony" is an interesting brand for our market, since in terms of price they are not far from Applu. (Of course, again, this does not apply to all products).
