well, not everyone knows they can pick up from store.
most people aren't fans.
they'll look at delivery date and think OH CAN FLIP. HOLD.
most to most they look at other people who are pricing it on Carousell as well.

Stock issues with iPhones don’t exist anymore. Holding onto these things for a better price is a fool’s game.

Maybe trying to flip the phones
Abit bo liao, iPhones no longer has that kind of hype anymore.

Well it may be out of stock for a while, just wait a few weeks from Apple store, no big deal.

Interestingly rwm sells the pm more than retail now...

In hand feel of iphone 12 mini with psaj rubber black casing is like iphone 7 without casing.
the screen width looks identical to iphone 7 as well. can't see the 1mm size difference.

Really really like 12 mini's size. display size wise for text and icons. identical to iphone 7 but of cos much sharper.

also happy to report that zeelot SP with black border&speaker mesh is excellent (border is thinner than spigen). superb clarity and touch response. nothing to complain about.

Why is that so? If there’s no demand. Why so many Carousell users sell at retail price or even beyond retail price for the mini.

cause they not very bright and people who purchase from them are the same lol.

plenty of stores at apple store, can pickup immediately leh, why pay higher?

ok for me. given that i just wash hand with mama lemon before applying SP. fingers are grease free now. just tried to put fingerprints but so far so good. maybe when my fingers greese up a bit later.. see how. the smoothness is just right to me. used some SP that is "ultra" smooth and lack feedback.
i like that the gap between SP and PSAJ is very very minimum. and swiping from the sides, top and bottom is smooth to the fingers.

i typical change SP every 6 months. got another zeelot SP as spare. was like 2 for 30 after vouchers. so nothing to complain about.

i also like that zeelot's screen clarity is really good. as good as spigen's from iphone 11. that has the best clarity to me on the iphone 11

Those should be telco set
If i am them i also will sell lower than retail to offload asap

those recontract from telco then sell on carohell broadly fall under two category
1) it is an easy way to get cash-in-advance.
2) handphone bill paid/claim from company

Regardless their intention. They just wanna earn the retail price.

CIS is quite attractive to be honest. Unless you’re an entrepreneur or working in a big coy, one can actually get a good out of this.
