The new gold iPhone 5s is in great demand all over the world. The probability of finding such an iPhone on free sale in retail stores is small, and where a golden iPhone is still sold, fabulous money is being asked for it. What should you do if you are determined to get a golden iPhone as soon as possible? In China, they came up with a simple and effective solution — gold stickers for iPhone 5/c for just $2.
Wall Street Journal reports that several Chinese retailers began selling gold-colored stickers after the launch of new iPhones in China. For just 35 yuan ($2), you can make your iPhone 5S or even iPhone 5 gold and turn it into a premium, spectacular product.
These are the ads for the sale of stickers distributed in China:
Dear customers, now you don't need to sell your kidneys to buy a new iPhone. Instead of paying 5288 yuan (retail price for iPhone 5S in China), you only need 35 to make your iPhone 5 look as similar as possible to the golden iPhone 5S in seconds.
Yes, the opportunity to leave your kidney intact is really a weighty argument for Chinese buyers.
The Wall Street Journal also found out that thousands of similar stickers were sold through various online stores in just a month. For example, several dozen types of such stickers are sold on Amazon. Obviously, there are a lot of people who want to make their iPhone gold for cheap.
In China, the golden iPhone 5s is considered not just a good phone, but also a status item that emphasizes the financial situation of its owner. This situation has developed due to the fact that Apple almost immediately sold the gold iPhone 5s models. No one predicted such a high demand for «gold », so it is very difficult to find such an iPhone 5s. The situation may improve this month, when new batches of gold 5s arrive on store shelves.
