Import an iPhone to Australia - get in trouble

Sun, 7 October 2007

Just came across the following post in Australian technology forum Whirlpool:

A friend who got back from a trip to LA reported being stopped at Sydney Airport and being given heat about having a brand new iPhone with its box. His entire luggage was combed through thereafter.

It was confiscated pending an investigation?? I only spoke to him for a short while but it seems bizarre that an iPhone should have been confiscated?

Hmmmm, interesting story, I’m curious on what bases the iPhone was confiscated.

Stumble it!
