In 20 easy steps.

1. Pull over to a gas station just outside the Holland Tunnel.

2. Get approached by a man with a bunch of obscure silver coins yelling “YO MAN, YOU COLLECT VINTAGE COINS?!?!?!!?”

3. Have him introduce himself as “BLAM BLAM THE WATCH MAN.”

4. Mention you don’t collect vintage coins.

5. “WHAT DO YOU NEED THEN? I GOT ROLEXES, MOVADOS.”

6. Mention you don’t need a Rolex or Movado from a guy at a Jersey City gas station.

7. “WHATCHU NEED THEN?”

8. “I don’t need anything.”

9. “I GOT IPHONES MAN. IPHONE 4, THE NEW JOINT.”

10. Out of curiosity, ask how much he’s selling an iPhone for.

11. “$380.”

12. “Fuck outta here, it’s $200 with the contract.” Go to the attendant to pay for gas.

13. Return to your car, get approached by BLAM BLAM THE WATCH MAN again. “AIGHT MAN, HOW MUCH YOU GOT ON THIS?”

14. “I’ll give you $100.”

15. “You can’t do no better man? Come on man, $150, $150.”

16. Take it out of the (real looking) packaging. Inspect the iPhone, notice that it has an operating system that looks like it was developed by Palm Pilot, and not Apple. Fail to notice the charger looks like it goes into the back of a printer, not a cell phone.

17. Think, “Whatever, it’s a sketchy $150 iPhone.” Pay BLAM BLAM THE WATCH MAN $150.

18. Upon further inspection, realize that instead of a Safari logo, it has an Internet Explorer “E” for the browser, the “I” in “iPod” is capitalized, it has an app that makes animated blondes give a lapdance on your screen, and the App Store has “JAVA” written under it.

19. Compare it to a real iPhone 4. Notice that the real iPhone 4 says “Assembled in China,” and the fake one says “Assembled in USA.” The side buttons are all in different places on the real one as well.

20. Realize it’s probably one of the funnier ways to spend $150 at a gas station.
