Best Sub $100 phone on sprint?

Turns out Sprint requires a $250 dollar deposit, as a college student working part time only making $400~ every 2 weeks, that is incredibly expensive. D:

Try talking to a rep and see if there's any way you can get the deposit waved. Deposits are not uncommon for those without much established credit history, but sometimes you can get the amount lowered if not eliminated.

How is it that much?? Maybe Cali market?

I've been at a Sprint dealer for almost 2 years and never seen a deposit over $100 per line, and its rare it's even $100, 95% of the time they are $50 per line.
