I doubt this is a logistics error. I doubt Apple would ever sell retail on Amazon. Why would Apple sell through a third party and give away profits? Selling through cell and data carriers is an exception.

High dollar items like this are resold through Amazon sellers but I doubt they go through Amazon fulfillment, which is where the scam takes place. Amazon sellers list the item, but ship some other bs item instead. Same concept as eBay

I never claimed that apple was the one selling it. Just that whoever is reselling it may not be a scammer. I saw a post once where a guy got a roller from a conveyor system instead of the item they ordered.

It's definitely possible that expensive items don't get shipped through amazon fulfillment, I don't know enough about all that to have an opinion on it.
