Apple’s Mea Culpa and $100 Credit Offer
Source: www.voip-news.com
So if you bought the fancy iPhone (8 gigabyte model) when it first came out, at the sticker price of $599, one would think you might have been a little miffed this week when Apple slashed the price by $200 to boost holiday sales. As Hannah Montana would say, “Ya think?” Steve Jobs, tail totally between the legs, has offered $100 credits to anyone who bought the iPhone during its initial offering. Well, kind of, but is that enough to foster future goodwill among customers?
Anyone who purchased an iPhone within 14 days of the recent price cut can get a refund of the price difference if they still have the original receipt. The price cuts are coming less than 10 weeks after the products hit the shelves, but with stock prices still falling, it might be too little too late. Did Apple price themselves out of the market?
