Someone tell me if they see a flaw in this:
Ok, what you do is sign up for AT&T and get a Blackjack. After contract discount and mail-in rebate, it costs $75. Mail in the rebate and sell the Blackjack on Ebay. I've seen most recent auctions going for $200-$250. Then, buy the iPhone and activate it. Because you make $125-$175 on the Blackjack sale (or another phone if there's a better profit margin to be had) it's essentially saving money on the iPhone!
This works because you have to pay full price for the iPhone regardless, unlike other phones which all have plan discounts.
So, wadaya think??
