China’s iPhone 4S sales resume online

Remember the fiasco that developed in China when the iPhone 4S went on sale, so much so that China’s own SWAT team was dispatched to perform crowd control duties? Well, the fever surrounding Apple’s best iPhone yet has not died down completely, and demand is as strong as ever for the world’s most populous country. At least if you want an iPhone 4S for yourself, you will be pleased to hear that online sales have resumed, although wait times for your order ranges from just one night to the possibility of weeks. China Daily has confirmed that you can pick up the iPhone 4S online in mainland China, with the Chinese online store taking orders since Wednesday last week, while quoting a ship date of “February.”

An Apple sales representative shared, “If you pay today, you might get the items tomorrow, and no later than March 2.” Guess there is no surprising your Valentine’s Day date with a new iPhone 4S, since it is not guaranteed to arrive by then, but perhaps you can always “disappoint” her first with the iPnoho 6, only to give her the real deal when it arrives at your doorsteps?
