How do they get them if not from the carriers under a 2 year contract? Do they just buy them from Apple at full price?

No. The Apple Stores do not sell them at full price. You must buy one from the carriers. Great isn't it?

The people I know buy their phones from people who come from the US. Most I know people use online forums and meet in person for the payment. Online payments really do not work here in the Philippines (not mainstream).

Also, shipping is expensive here because the Philippines is an archipelago :(
