How I got a new Apple 32GB 3GS iPhone for ~$30

Prereqs:
  • Have a 3G iPhone for 12-18 months
  • Pay AT&T more than $100 per month
I listed my 1 year old 3G 16GB for $300 on craiglist. Within 4 hours I had 40 offers, almost all saying "I have cash, where can we meet." I got a little more than originally paid for the iPhone, in cash, and the buyer came to me.

Next, I went to the apple store and bought my phone for a net price of ~$30!!!!!
- $299 for 3GS/32GB
- $~30 fees
+$300 cash
---------------
=$~30
