I'm not talking about second hand. I'm talking about new from the carrier old model phones. Here is the verizon page for iphone 14s they have, you can get them for 0 down 0 a month through some deal from the cell phone plan. Apple can't compete with free.

I only see plans with 65$/month for 36 months, so 2340$ over 3 years. Which is a lot of money.

They even tell you what the actual rate is in the fine print. It's just priced in: 17.49$ over 36 months comes out to 629$.

I’ve never seen something like that here in Italy. Here you pay for both the phone AND the plan :(
