Talk about a poorly edited and inaccurate story, at least regarding Apple's fukubukuro. I checked out the source page, and even though I don't know Italian, I can read enough to tell that the event *starts* on December 26th, runs till January 2nd, and costs 52,500 yen (here's a clue: some languages use periods in long numbers instead of commas).
Mind you, that "January 2nd" bit is irrelevant, because they'll sell out in the first five minutes like they did last year.
