iPhone 6 - Online or Offline?

7 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/iphone-6-online-or-offline.189980/

I am in a dilemma. I want to buy 2 iPhone 6 - 64GB Silver & Space Gray. Now I am not sure whether to buy it online or at Apple store. Apple stores are not dropping price even a single rupee from Rs.62,500/- whereas on Snapdeal I am getting it at 56,500/- & 57,499/-.
I am not sure because I have doubt that online websites may be offering a gray market product because Silver colour model isn't available at any iStore in Pune from last 1.5 months whereas it's available on online stores. istores are telling that supply is short from Apple for Silver model in 64GB. So how it's available on e-stores? But as I am going to buy two of them; the savings are significant. So please give me advice.

Its better to keep of SD, yes they are horrific! Better try FlipK and see if they can match the price; Offline prices arent going to come down any time soon, neither would they even bother driving it down, unless you have an upcoming launch!

better buy from Flipkart (WS Retail) or amazon (amazon fulfilled)

My question is why there is so much significant price difference? Rs.5,000/- per piece on fkart.(It doesn't ship to my place

)
Are profit margins so thinner or gray market piece?

Shopkeepers need to pay bills, duties etc and then they need their own cut too. This results in higher prices on any device.
Also, most shopkeepers will discourage you from buying online as it affects their sales. Then there is another stupid argument given by them that "Apple is apple", buy at higher price, blah blah. Just ignore them and buy online.

Buy from Amazon or FK

Buy it from WS Retail or cloudtail from amazon.
