Default Amazon Wireless

I bought mine from Amazon. The $19.99 price is for a new account. Mine was an upgrade, so the price jumped to $79.99. But, shipping was free and there are no taxes. Total price was $79.99. The price at a Verizon store was $266 out the door.

Can't help you on the Australia question....

I was kinda of mad caz Verizon just gave me a early upgrade but I couldn't use it on amazon... I had to shell out the $199 for the phone on Verizon.com instead of the $79 but on the other side i got an early upgrade and I am super excited for it to get here.

Its crazy how Amazon can be so much cheaper just wish i was qualified for that upgrade.

Default Arrrrgh!

I paid $79.99 on Amazon Wireless. I saw the other post about Wirefly. I went there, and sure enough, I could have bought the phone for $19.99. I was hoping that when I clicked "upgrade" it would switch to $79.99 like it did with Amazon. I could have bought the charging cradle and a belt case for that money. I hate buyer's remorse!

The phone is supposed to be here tomorrow. I keep watching the reviews. The "professional reviewers" are pretty hard on the camera and bugginess. But, on the Verizon website, the real users are ranking it high. Cautiously optimistic here.....

I renewed my existing plan (upgraded). That's all. It really only too about 6 minutes too so it's clearly the better route to take rather than going to Verizon and paying up the bum for a waste of time.

I am on a family plan and tried to use an available upgrade on one of my other lines via Amazon. Amazon can't do the upgrade transfer to my line - the line they upgrade has to keep the same number for 181 days. Anyone know any workarounds?

Thanks,
Roger

You never Have to be eligible, you would just get the phone at a cheaper price if you are.

Can anyone explain how these places like Amazon, Wirefly, & New Egg do it for these prices? Both Best Buy and VZW want 199.99 for this phone right now.

I'm about to return to BB and return it (still in my 30 days). Wish I actually looked at this thread sooner!

Just make sure you read all the fine print with the 3rd party stores. You can really save money if you have all your ducks in a row. Can be a really big pain if you don't. In some cases, the $200 is worth it

The best "brick and mortar" store deal I've seen is Sam's Club $48.99.

Doesn't a rapid price drop historically indicate an EOL or possibly a hardware update?

This phone is the likely successor to my aged HTC Eris but I'm worried that by the time my upgrade date arrived on Sept 11 that it will be relegated to the dusty section of the store.

If it makes you feel any better, they're dust-proof...

Ordered mine at Best Buy for $79.99 (price matched to Amazon).

I asked at a VZW retailer about a charging dock and he said "yeah, we can get 'em. They're about $30." After I ordered the phone I popped back in to order it and a different person (naturally) said "they don't make 'em anymore".

So the best I can find it $47.99 on Amazon (ebay).

I asked the sales girl from new egg when I ordered my phone. Verizon will give them a rebate for selling people on thier plans, and Casio will also give them a rebate for pushing thier phones. So while you think they're just giving these things away, they're actually making double profit. all authorized Verizon Sellers get the same rebates, so if you're not going through one if these places who are giving it to you for $0, you're getting ripped off.

They paid me $20 bucks to get mine a few months back. I was able to get in on the $100 rebate smartphone upgrade...so I got the phone for $50, and the car charger for $25 and the screen protectors for a total of $80 and they sent me a $100 verizon card.
