The increasing influence of Coronavirus is also being seen on the production and sales of iPhone. Apple has already closed many of its stores and manufacturing units due to Corona. Now the company has banned online shopping of iPhone. Under this, customers will no longer be able to shop more than two iPhones of one model online. However, more than two iPhones of different models can be purchased. Currently, this limit has been applied to many countries including the US and China. The new limit has come into effect from Friday.
Purchase limit was imposed for the first time in 2007
Apple first introduced a shopping limit in 2007 after the iPhone was introduced in the market. Apple took this step with a view to stop reselling iPhone. In many countries, customers are being prevented from purchasing more than two iPhones of the same model through a drop-down menu on Apple’s website. This shopping limit is applied to all models of the iPhone. Messages are being sent to customers through iPhone listings primarily in China, Hong-Kong, Taiwan, and Singapore that they cannot purchase more than two iPhone devices each order. However, the company has not yet responded to this. This buying limit has been imposed due to Coronavirus disrupting sales, supply chain and weak demand.
