Hi there! Please help.

So I’m in a small country in Caucasus (Georgia) and we do have authorized resellers here, but I noticed that even they sell some iPhones with a 100$ discount relative to official price set by Apple for Georgia ($1780 for pro max 256). Which means those cheaper phones are imported “unofficially”, because a store can’t sell Apple goods for cheaper price. Ever.

What happens if I buy that iPhone? I would’ve bought the officially imported one, but they don’t have it in white color (in another store).

    Depending what region those “unofficial” are coming from. You could have problems if you need warranty repairs, or the phone may not support LTE/5G bands that are used in Georgia.

    I personally live in a small country too(Albania) and there’s plenty of shops here who advertise themselves as “Apple Authorized”. I don’t trust them for shit though and would recommend the same to you but I can’t say for sure because I don’t know how it works over there.
