A US gamer has been banned from ever buying another iPad. Why? He reached his "lifetime limit."
Who knew that such a limit existed? Not The Reg.
Using the handle Protocol Snow, the now-banned iPad buyer tells his story of intrigue in a personal blog post. But be forewarned: as he notes, the post "is getting hammered with traffic and load times are quite substantial."
So let us summarize - and include one mildly edited bit of dialog between our blogger and what might kindly be described as tightly-controlled Apple Store retail droids.
It seems Mr. Snow wanted to pass a few iPads to fellow NeoGAF gaming forum members outside the US who were craving their own "magical and revolutionary" devices, but whose hopes had been dashed by Apple's decision to delay international iPad sales by a month
...
At that point, Guy #1 returns, and the conversation takes on a Kafkaesque quality:
Guy #1: I'm sorry sir, but you have reached your lifetime limit of iPad purchases and will not be allowed to buy any more.
Me: Is the iPad limit per person? Per credit card? Per household?
Guy #1: All I can say is that you have reached your lifetime limit.
Me: What does that mean? Can I use a different credit card to buy it? I'm buying this for a friend.
Guy #1: You are not allowed to buy this iPad.
Me: Uhh... is it okay if I have a family member or friend come to buy it for me? My reservation doesn't expire until 6:00pm.
Guy #1: All I can say is that you have reached your lifetime limit.
Ovo postaje nadrealno... Lifetime limit za Jesus Tablet :-)))
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA
Nesto mi se cini da... ovo nije bas unutar slova zakona o retail trgovini (ono.. onaj deo zakona koji kaze da prodavac ne sme da diskriminise i odbije da proda robu koja je izlozena kupcu)
iSSSR - there's a company for that....
