圖中左一穿橙色T恤的是Greg Packer

Line-sitting obsessive Greg Packer is at it again, camping outside of the Fifth Avenue Apple Store in New York City for the iPhone 4. And this time he’s got a sponsor!

The sponsor is , a site which buys up your used gadgets based upon a cash offer from their dynamic pricing engine. They then either resell your used gadget or recycle it.

Packer himself — more enthusiastic about line-sitting than he is functionally knowledgeable about tech — doesn’t really seem to have a very nuanced understanding of what his sponsor does, describing Gazelle as an “eBay for electronics.” It’s not, really, but either way, it looks like a pretty cool site for individuals who don’t want to go the eBay or Craigslist route for selling their old gadgets… or at the very least, recycle their own tech easily and responsibly. Their sponsorship of Packer has certainly raised my awareness of what they do, so in that, their money seems well spent.

As for Packer and his motivation for sitting in line, “I was the first in the US to have iPhone 1, so why not do it again?”

Shhh! No one tell him that FedEx is already delivering iPhone 4s to customers, no line-sitting required.

滬江小編：在這個世界上，只要你堅持不懈的去做一件不違法犯罪的事情，你就能取得一定的成績。在美國，有這么一位排隊大王Greg Packer，他生平的喜好就是排隊，經(jīng)常站在各種隊伍的第一個，于是就經(jīng)常作為隊伍中的路人甲被媒體采訪了不下一百次，比專家什么的出鏡率高多了。他還見過吉米·卡特，比爾·克林頓和小布什這三位美國總統(tǒng)以及瑪麗亞·凱莉、NBA的壞小子羅德曼等名人。最近，他再次去排隊購買iPhone 4，還獲得了一家二手商品交易網(wǎng)站的贊助。這充分證明了咱老祖宗說的，只要功夫深，鐵杵磨成針。天下無難事，只怕有心人。（眾：什么跟什么啊~~）
