Apple and its major carrier partners have already started taking pre-orders for the iPhone X. There are other carriers in the United States that will also be selling the handset to their customers. Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile are two such carriers. Both have confirmed that they’ll start taking orders for the iPhone X come November 10th.
Apple has said that there has been significant demand for the iPhone X. The new handset is believed to be available in limited quantities as reports about product issues refuse to die down. Shipping times for the iPhone X slipped quite quickly after pre-orders opened so there might be some truth to those reports after all.
Scalpers are having a blast in this situation. They’re selling iPhone X pre-orders for up to $1,500 on eBay. Given that the cheapest iPhone X model cost $999, they get to turn a 50 percent profit within days.
Boost Mobile is going to start taking orders for the iPhone X from November 10th. Virgin Mobile customers will be able to pre-order the iPhone X from the carrier starting November 3rd. It’s also going to ship out the handset on November 10th.
Virgin Mobile is offering the iPhone X on its Inner Circle plan. It costs $50 per month and provides subscribers who bring over their own device with unlimited talk, text, and data. Those who go for this plan will have to purchase the iPhone X upfront.
