Customers have to draw lots to buy iPhone 4

VietNamNet Bridge – Next week VinaPhone will import an additional 450 Apple’s iPhone 4 smart phones. As thousands of people want to buy the phone, the firm may have to hold a draw to select lucky customers.


VinaPhone will hold a draw to ensure impartiality for customers, a company official said, adding that customers will register for the draw in the morning and the draw will be organized on the afternoon of the same day.
“We will make public the points of sale and draw to prevent our employees from illegally selling the phones,” he said.
The firm recently banned its staffs from collaborating with phone shops to sell iPhone 4 to earn extra profit. Violators will be fined or even fired.
Meanwhile, Viettel’s new batch of iPhone 4 arrived in Vietnam today, October 15. Viettel will randomly select customers from October 20-24 via its website and organize draw like VinaPhone at all Viettel shops in Vietnam. However, this firm will sell several iPhone 4 a day.
On online forums, customers complained that they had to wait for a long time to own an iPhone 4. Many people couldn’t wait so they turned to buy iPhone 3Gs, resulted in the increase of prices for this model.
