I really want an ipod touch, but I'm not prepared to pay so much for one, so i was thinking of investing in 50-100 ipod touches and selling them to friends and ebay at a cheaper price than apple

but i wondered how much do apple charge for a bulk of 16GB/50 ipod touches 32GB/50 ipod touches?

thanks.

Well,

50x$400= $20,000
50x$500= $25,000

plus tax.

I have no idea if Apple would give you some kind of deduction since you would be buying so many.

Honestly, I would just bite the bullet and buy the single iPod Touch you want. I would rather spend $500 and be happy then $25,000 and have difficulty selling 50 iPods.

Don't forget about shipping fees, eBay fees, and PayPal fees if you choose to use PayPal.

I agree with the above post and say that you should just get one and enjoy it.

i would have never thought if a person did not want to buy a Ipod Touch at full price would want to buy 50k in Ipods to get a discount..

maybe i should do that with a MBP...

You'd also have to be an authorized reseller. Apple doesn't want just anyone selling new product.
