As you all know, the iPhone launched recently to a flurry of press and TV news coverage. Eager geeks (sorry, but it seems applicable here) sat outside stores for hours and hours to buy the new phone, happy in the knowledge that they were about to get something that will help them feel a little bit cooler. Just a little.

Far, far worse than these iPhone nuts, though, are the vultures. The folks with enough money to swoop down on a store and buy up a whole bunch of product, only to recycle them on eBay for double the price. Hey, that's good ol' healthy capitalism at work, right?

Well, as you'll see in this video , money really doesn't buy you everything (hmm, that rings a bell ). Certainly not a stack of iPhones. It looks like this is one woman who has way more money than sense. And for all you geeks out there, you'll be pleased to know that there's a happy ending for your fellow iPhone nerds who really did just want a phone. Moral of the story...check the small print before you withdraw thousands from your over-stuffed bank account.
