Hahahahahahahahahahaha HAhaahahahahaha
Now if only she would have payed with american express we wouldn't be having this problem. Amex has this deal where if the product they buy goes down in price within 30 days of buying it, Amex will actually pay the customer the difference! one of my friends bought an iPhone at the more expencive price but bought it with Amex and now got $200 back!

This really does show how crazy America is about suing and lawsuits. I'm surprised Michael Moore hasn't made a film on it.

The thing is, we seem to hear all the time about cases like these...

isnt it just business? people dont or cant sue when the housing market declines after a big purchase or loss due to sale. its supply and demand. she shouldn't get anything for sueing. i think she should have to pay more for making such a big deal. some stores like best buy has a rebate policy that if you find it cheaper in 30 days they will refund the difference and pay you extra. apple does have an image to uphold and they did a great job reimbursing many of the buyers the difference for the dramatic price cut but doesnt that say something about apple? why did the price drop so much? i know! becasue the company they use the manufacture the iphone screens only last for 1 year until they go dead? nice one apple! just like the 30gb ipod that malfunctioned almost on the dot 1 year after first use!


In the same respect, isn't it just business to sue someone for something you think is crazy but has a chance at winning. You laugh at all these people who sued for these crazy reason but you mention one thing in common. They won. It's business as usual in America and if it is the opposite of the saying "If it doesn't make dollars then it doesn't make sense". If it makes money it makes sense so they are getting rich off this and while you call them stupid I doubt that their bank account is agreeing with you.

It kind of reminds me of the South Park Episode in which everyone sues people and the school for sexual harassment (The Sexual Harassment Panda Episode). It's funny you should all watch it and see how Kyle's dad benefits too(The Lawyer).

The amount of people sueing each other in the united states is just ridiculous. People go and sue each other over the most stupid things and win!

She should not win this. She took a gamble in buying this product and it did not pay off. It's her fault, not apple's.

This case reminds me of another case in the US

this guy sued Mc Donalds and WON, because he went in and brought one BigMac burger everyday for 20years. the nsued on the grounds that they made him fat.

I mean there have been some weird lawsuits out there, but the law can't cover every possibility.

Buy the movie called super size me...the things that McDonalds does to your body is un-natural, including cut off the production of sperm in a males body. Which, is pretty bad when you think about it. Think of it this way, if every man, were to eat McDonalds food, even 3 times a week, the population of the united states and around the world would probably decrease a lot.

But thats not what this is about, I think this women will definatly lose. I mean its supply and demand, pretty sure I learned that 6th grade, and was taught it through junior year...If this lady is stupid, and doesnt think that iphone would eventually lose intrest and therefore drop in price, she needs to go back to 6th grade, I mean, its not even as hard as that show are you smarter then a 5th grader...COME ON WOMEN.

Now this is just sad.. its her dumb fault that she bought it early, what does she expect, a bargain? Stupid woman.

As for suing someone, whats the point? The legal fees would take away any money she COULD get... IF she does win.

People like this stuff up our courts around the world. Thank god its not as bad here in Australia.
