After President Trump's call for a suspension of TikTok, the platform only went dark for half a day for U.S. users. While TikTok is still unavailable in app stores, opportunistic entrepreneurs began listing unlocked iPhones with TikTok pre-installed on resale sites like eBay and Poshmark at exorbitant prices. Some listings exceed $3,500, far higher than common retail prices for these models, with many products jokingly priced or not yet bought. This situation reflects the heightened demand for TikTok amidst its uncertain status in the U.S.
In a curious twist, listings for unlocked iPhones that come pre-installed with TikTok are being resold online, sometimes for staggering prices like $3,500.
TikTok briefly went dark for U.S. users, leading to entrepreneurs listing phones with the app on resale sites at outrageous prices, hoping to capitalize on the scarcity.
