Comment on One iPhone led police to gang who sent 40,000 snatched phones to China

These devices aren’t magic. Stealing and shipping phones at this scale halfway around the world seems inefficient to say the least.
But I guess organized criminals and their clients aren’t always that smart.

It’s not about efficiency, it’s about it working. They don’t exactly need to do it at a price point because it’s a “price is what I say it is” kind of deal.
