"that are seen as symbols of wealth in China."

That's a pretty big thing really, shapes the choices of a lot of people.

There's some ridicilous things around the UK too i bet, can't think of any now, but i'm betting there's some ridicilous symbolism going on.

Risky business, but 1.8k would peek an interest to me

Firstly you appear to be linking to the daily mail as a source of info, you should use the Beano instead, it is better written and more factually accurate.

Secondly, good luck to the kid - Shame he lives in a country where he won't be able to take full advantage of it. I bet state run 3g networks are quite cheap though

for an ipad? pff...

mind you, some ppl on FHOT would sell a kidney for a box of Freddo's, a years supply of vaseline, & 2 litres of white spirit

Complete retard, half a kidney is twice as useful as an iPad.

15k and my kidney is yours!

Sounds like the story is taking the piss to me.
Everyone knows Apple products cost an arm and a leg.

I suspect the first being unintentional .

Weird, because I sold my iPad for liver paté.
