    Have they always been this expensive to outright buy the phone without a plan?
    Fairly close. IIRC the 32gb iphone 5 was $799 unlocked.

    Nope. They (Apple) jacked up the price for Canada. US remains the same price as the old iPhone 5 price. US prices for the 5S:

    16GB: $649
    32GB: $749
    64GB: $849

    That's what our prices were for the iPhone 5 no contract.

    The 5s has gone up in price relative to the release of the 5 last year.

    This might be due to currency fluctuations as the price is $649 in the US. I think I will have to pick one up when I am down there next week.

    EDIT: I guess I left the window open a little too long. haha.

    Why bother? You'll save $45 buying it from the US, and that's if you get USD at the current exchange rate. Buy it on credit card using their rates, and you'll have $20 if you're lucky haha.

    $20 bucks is $20. It will buy my family a meal at In and Out burger.

    The outright price went up by $20 across the board. I'm still going to wait for note 3 to come out, but based on preliminary hands-on videos the input lag is still present And I'm definitely seeing some minor freeze-ups...

    fuuuuu It's like Google doesn't want me to have any choice

    Sorry yeah I meant i know it is the 20th but what does Apple consider the 20th. They never really specify at what time on that day it opens.

    Iphone 5's were 699.99,799.99 and 899.99 unlocked until this week when they dropped down by 80 on each phone.

    the price increase is 20 so i dont see how thats jacking up the price

    It appears we are going to see a rise in gold phones in the near future but I don't get the gold myself. I can't recall any gold electronics actually. I'll just get a silver but it will be interesting to see if the gold takes off.
