The scalpers this year have stopped hoarding Apple products and have started hoarding Huawei Mate60, resulting in a general increase in prices

Scalpers now hoarding Huawei Mate60 instead of Apple products, leading to price hikes

【Phoneauto News】Since its official launch on August 29th, Huawei’s Mate60 series has become the hottest smartphone product in the Chinese market. Even the release of Apple’s iPhone 15 series on September 13th did not change this situation. Phoneauto noticed that, according to reports from relevant media, the popularity of Huawei’s Mate60 series and other models like Huawei Mate X5 has also shifted the focus of scalpers who used to hype up iPhones, now waiting outside Huawei stores.

Staff members from Huawei’s offline sales stores have stated, “The entire Mate 60 series sells out instantly, there isn’t a single model that doesn’t sell well.” This naturally attracted a large number of scalpers hoping to profit from it. However, Huawei has also taken numerous measures to prevent scalping. Several Huawei phone dealers have said, “If dealers sell a large number of devices to scalpers who then resell them out of the province, the abnormal activation rate will rise, and Huawei will directly stop supplying the store.” Huawei’s move directly prevents the possibility of collusion between dealers and scalpers. At the same time, consumers who purchase Huawei Mate60 series models in stores need to activate them on the spot and cannot take them away sealed.

However, despite this, due to the overwhelming sales of the Huawei Mate60 series, there are still cases of price markup on some second-hand trading platforms. For example, the price of the Huawei Mate60 Pro 12GB+512GB version is around 7999 yuan, with an additional markup of about 1000 yuan; the 12GB+1TB version is priced around 8500 yuan, with an additional markup of about 500 yuan.
