Apple’s new generation iPhone 18 Pro series will be officially launched next Friday, September 18. Costco has confirmed that it will be sold simultaneously with Apple’s official website; as for the first folding iPhone Duo, it is expected to be launched on October 16.
Costco drops prices on first day of sale
For many Apple fans who don’t want to be tied to a telecommunications contract, Costco has always been a popular choice for grabbing new iPhones. The reason is simple. In the past, on the first day of sales of new phones, Costco would “cut prices”, usually at least 1,000 to 2,000 yuan cheaper than Apple’s official price. Therefore, it often attracted a large number of Apple fans to queue up, and there were even situations where seats were blocked in the middle of the night and scalpers queued up for them. This year Costco also confirmed that the new iPhone will go on sale simultaneously with Apple’s official website.
If member feedback is taken into account, the price difference may be even more noticeable. Costco Gold Star members with an annual fee of RMB 1,500 will receive 1% rebate on purchases; Black Diamond Card members with an annual fee of RMB 3,000 will receive 2% rebate. The amount saved by buying an iPhone has the opportunity to be directly offset by the annual fee for the entire year, making netizens laugh and say, “Buy one, and the annual fee for black card membership will be paid.” If you combine it with a co-branded credit card, you can enjoy another 2% cash back.
Black Diamond members can enter the venue 1 hour early to grab tickets
For those who want to grab the first batch of new phones, Black Diamond card members have another advantage, that is, they can enter the store one hour in advance to shop. Especially for the iPhone Duo, which goes on sale in October, the first batch of stock will not be too much, so it is indeed more advantageous to enter the market early to grab a chance.
However, the actual prices of this year’s iPhone 18 Pro series and iPhone Duo at Costco will not be announced until the day of sale; in addition, the actual models, capacities and colors arriving at each store may also be different.
