"We have this notion that if you're poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids."

As the audience reluctantly began to applaud during the silence, Biden tried to fix his remarks.

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.

looks like under $300/new on amazon for a 5c

since americans have no savings and buy all their phones on installment or as part of their phone contracts, they have a skewed view of the true value of phones

if you try to resell your phone just one year after it came out it loses a significant chunk of its value because no one is gonna pony up significant cash for a phone no matter how good condition its in

look at the going prices for iphones 6 on sa mart, people sell them for like $400 when brand new that thing cost a minimum of $700 after sales tax less than a year ago, and our tax is a lot lower than NZ's

iphone 5s and iphone 5 go for under $200 used these days
