Why would someone purchase a fake iPhone?

Question

What is the incentive of purchasing a fake, dummy iPhone? It will not work, and according to some it doesn't truly resemble an actual iPhone.

Answer 1

Same reason people used to steal the dummy pagers from my old RadioShack display. Same reason people buy fake Rolexes, fake Beats. They want the look. They think the look makes them cool.

Answer 2

Usually, fake things are cheaper than their genuine versions. Some people are desperate to be on "the band wagon" so they want to buy something that is or looks an iPhone in order to fit in. Sometimes you don't even know it's fake but you buy it anyways.
