Luke was amused. "Are they starting to spread rumors now?"
Jenny was lost for words. "Well… it's not a rumor."
Luke was stumped. "What?"
Jenny said, "Two branch managers in New York were already discovered to be in cahoots with scalpers; they made tens of thousands of dollars for themselves."
Luke was surprised. "How many phones did they sell? Over a thousand?"
Only fifty thousand Titanium phones had been released for August, and most of the branches only had a few thousand in stock; over a thousand phones sold via scalpers was a huge issue.
Jenny said, "No; they jacked up the prices of the phones which they sold to the scalpers by 150 to 300 dollars. The two managers took out over 200 phones from the New York stores."
Luke gritted his teeth. "Are you kidding me? Then what do the scalpers earn?"
