Re: Metaldetector

Do you have to go through a metal detector to get from HK to mainland China? Serious question, I've never tried.

The thought that strikes me is, he just got greedy. 94 iPhones net $49k profit? Then 30 of the things - which he could easily have carried much less obtrusively - would have made over $15k, plenty to cover expenses with a nice little profit to spare - then he could have gone back next month to do it again.
