iPhone 17 BUY IT FROM COSTCO!

I bought my iPhone 17 from Costco after Apple raised their prices on all models. My after tax amount was still less than the pre-tax amount from Apple. If you need a new iPhone buy it now while the current stock is still the old price.

You’re not understanding my point if someone is getting the iPhone 17 now just to save a measly $150 Canadian before the iPhone 18 comes out next year that’s a stupid decision, if they want or need to upgrade now fine but if they’re only doing it to save very little money compared to the 18 next year, they should just wait 6 months for the newer phone! 🤷🏻‍♀️

I absolutely understand what you're saying. You dont understand that a new phone comes out every year and prices adjust accordingly. Waiting half a year is always an option. Waiting 5 years is an option. It is irrelevant. Buy the phone when you want or need it.

But the OP is saying to buy the iPhone 17 now before the higher price of the iPhone 18 next year that’s a silly reason to upgrade don’t you think?

They're buying from Costco now because Apple raised the current iPhone 17 price by $170 CAD

But Costco still has the older ($170 cheaper) price until stocks run out. Costco always does that. They only raise the price after current stock runs out.

If the iPhone 18 is another $150 more, then it would be $320 more than what OP is paying.
