Last year the Apple company had a lot of problems with Chinese customers who came in large numbers to the American company's stores to buy the iPad 2 tablet. This year they did not stay far away and contributed fully to the 3 million iPad 3 tablets sold. by Apple but it seems that some they are in a hurry to return the products purchased from the American company. The queue in the images above was formed at the Apple store in Fifth Avenue, the one in which sthey sold 13.000 tablets in just 12 hours last Friday, and some people even returned 30 iPad 3 tablets purchased just a few days ago.
Went to the Fifth Ave store near midnight today, and saw that Apple was setting up a separate line just to handle the volume of iPad returns from Chinese resellers. The manager kept the separate line to ensure that regular customer's experience was not affected. Some people were returning up to 30.
For now, no one knows why so many tablets were returned by the Chinese, but I assume that the impossibility of transporting/selling them in China would be the main reasons and their decision is as strange as possible considering the estimates that supported that 200.000 iPad tablets have already been imported in China.
