Look genuine to me but then again any cell phone can replicated to look like the original. I would get the imei number from the wholesaler and then call apple to see if that imei number is valid.

Tell him a random word like "snoopyfoodlegoogadixies" and tell him to print it and put it with the iPhones and take a picture. See if something comes back. Even then, you won't be sure what you'll get until you get it. I recommend ordering 1 first...

The first pic shows a phone plug that is not American style. Customers get that and then they have to go to the AT&T store and buy a new one and it's about $40 last I saw as Apple won't let any iphone accessory sell cheap. So customers won't like that.

Target and AOL have been sued for blind users not being able to using their website http://tinyurl.com/hlynp -- will eBay be next for deaf users?

The question came from a UK user so that is why the plugs are different.

I have a few authentic Apple 3G iphones 8gb and 16 gb that have been unlocked with SIM card. Ready to use with any GSM service provider.
