Reselling the early purchase of iPhone 18 Pro Max, traders make millions of profits
(Dan Tri) - On the evening of September 12, Apple and its authorized dealers in Vietnam opened the portal to accept pre-order deposits for the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max duo.
According to the plan, these devices will officially go on sale in the Vietnamese market from 8:00 a.m. on September 18. To date, the two iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max models have been sold out, especially the Burgundy Red color version. That also makes delivery times longer.

On iPhone exchange groups, many people have offered to resell early purchases of iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. The asking price is 6-10 million VND higher depending on the version.
Orders received early on the morning of September 18 currently have the highest price. Accordingly, the price of iPhone 18 Pro Max in Burgundy Red color was pushed to 48 million VND for the 256GB version, 6 million VND higher than the genuine price. Versions with larger capacity also have their prices inflated to a higher level.
Other color versions such as Black, Silver, and Bang Thanh are also offered for sale at prices 3-5 million VND higher than the listed price. Price will vary depending on color version and delivery time.
In fact, this situation has appeared over the past few years, especially every time Apple launches a new color iPhone. Taking advantage of the shortage of goods in the early stages of sale, many people have speculated on iPhones to make a profit.
Talking to Dan Tri reporter, Mr. Nguyen Lac Huy, communications representative of CellphoneS system, said that as of the morning of September 14, this system recorded the number of interested customers and pre-orders reaching nearly 50,000 orders.

"The number of new iPhone orders has grown 3 times compared to the same period last year. In particular, iPhone 18 Pro Max in Burgundy Red and Bang Thanh are the two most popular color versions. Customers who want to receive the above two colors early can consider referring to the Pro line," Mr. Huy shared.
In the Vietnamese market, iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max are offered at prices of 39 million VND and 42 million VND respectively for the 256GB version. Meanwhile, the most advanced version with 2TB storage capacity is priced at 78 million VND and 81 million VND respectively.
"Users' shopping trends in the Vietnamese market are still similar to previous years. Customers always prioritize choosing new color versions on the Pro Max line. This causes local scarcity, especially during the initial opening period," said a representative of the American Mobile system.
