Meet Sam and Davor. If you’re thinking about lining up for Apple’s iPhone 6 in Sydney, these are the two guys you’ll be behind, unless you want to buy their spot in the line.
Comedian and friend of Gizmodo, Dan Ilic of A Rational Fear, spotted Sam and Davor setting up camp this morning outside of the Apple Store on George St, Sydney.
Ilic chatted to the two gentlemen and found out that one of them actually wants to sell his spot:
Sydney is currently experiencing one of the wettest months on record. Rug up, lads!
The Business of being a Fanboi. Lining up for 10 days to get a new phone doesn’t make sense, unless you intended to sell your spot for the right price. So far Sam (left) and Davor (right) have been offered $1500 for their No. 1 spot in the queue at the Apple Store in Sydney’s CBD, but have refused to budge. While Sam, a business student, claims he’s sitting in the cold for 10 days “for the thrill of it”, Davor, a student from Slovenia, confides he’s hoping for a payday before local launch of the iPhone 6 in nine days time. Wonder if they’ll accept Apple Pay
Incidentally, if you’re a fan of Dan and want to get more amazing satire, A Rational Fear is doing a show in Parramatta on September 15. Something to do, perhaps, while you pass the time waiting for the new iPhone? [Instagram]
