Default Lightinthebox now have genuine 16GB 3G iPhones

At least - I'm guessing these are genuine? Doesn't they they are apple "style", and judging by the price....

Thought they only sold unbranded electronics.

You don't think? At over $1k? I thought generally LITB stated if their products were "copies" or not.

Geo, I'm not really sure "Isabel" was really appreciating your loss of patience by the end of that, rather brief, conversation.

The iPhones could well be authentic, the other phones though, I'm not too sure.

Oh sorry Andy - I thought that was a bit of sarcasm there

Yea, that does sound like an unconvincing conversation Geosamm doesn't it.

I just can't see them flogging copies for such a high price.

Geo, you spoke with a Live Chat person who works for $2 an hour.

What did you expected?

I still think they're genuine iPhones.

Even if these are genuine, is the market willing to buy them from me even if I only put a %5 markup on them?
