Japanese Apple Fans Line Up for Annual ‘Lucky Bag’ Discounts (Macrumors)
_Tech in Asia_ reports on the Japanese tradition of “lucky bags” in which
retailers celebrate the new year by offering customers grab bags filled with
unknown items at a substantial discount from their retail prices. In exchange
for the substantial discounts, customers must simply accept whatever products
are in the bags.
_Apple lucky bag with iPad 2, Smart Cover, Camera Connection Kit, headphones,
and more_
Apple offers some of the most highly sought-after lucky bags, with customers
paying hundreds of dollars for bags hoping to receive their favorite big-
ticket items. This year’s lucky bags from Apple were sold for 33,000 yen, or
the equivalent of about $430.
> I always considered myself a pretty big Apple fan, but this event seems to
bring out the most hard-core fanboys. Back in 2010 I tried to queue for a
lucky bag, arriving at the store at 5am only to find that overnight campers
had filled all the spots. This year the bag cost 33000 yen (about $430), and
most customers are hoping that there will be a big ticket item inside like an
iPad 2 or a Macbook Air.
