 A delightful short article and a half-dozen pictures from London -

 ...London's Borough Market, one of the oldest markets in the U.K., is
 marking its 1,000th anniversary this year. (Yes, it's been around for a
 millennium.) As part of the celebrations, it treated shoppers to a
 delightful concept—creating a Real Apple Store for the weekend that was a
 clever copy of Apple's iconic retail establishments.

 Actual apples were displayed on lucite pedestals just like an iPhone or
 iPad would be, but instead of technical specs, the signs showed each
 apple's unique flavor notes and history.

 Take a look below at some more photos of this great little shop. It
 remains unclear whether the apples themselves were marked up to 500 percent
 of their actual value

Well, I guess it could apply to either - 'actual value' is a rather nebulous 
qualifier, open to debate and like so many things, it all depends on your point 
of view - or maybe 'let them eat their phone'
