how did you get one with a waiting list like that? also i would perfer not to pay the full 300 atm was counting on bestbuy

 

[Jack Daniels]

please not i live in wa and they don't carry sprint phones in store here which sux

 

[Jack Daniels]

but i can perorder the white one...i don't really want white.

 

[Jack Daniels]

i think i am going to cry there is 1 evo in 40 miles and it's on hold for someone and it's at a sprint store so i would have to pay 300 if it was available....

Just wait until Sprint.com has some in stock and place your order.

 

[Jack Daniels]

sprint.com is same as the local store either way i have to wait and pay 300 up front


sux

Sorry, I think I bought one of the last ones yesterday The girl told me they only had a few left and it was good that I called. I got lucky though since my local sprint store had a wait list of 275!!

Did you try radioshack? On the cnet review they said radioshack also carried for the same price as BB.

btw, first post here.

As of Friday evening there was only 1 Bestbuy (Mobile) in northern Jersey that had them in stock. They had plenty.. Me along with a few others walked in and out with one.

I got lucky. I was waiting for Sprint.com but I heard a week and a half ago that it would be a while for them, as they are dealing with the waiting lists at stores first (just a rumor). So I went to my local sprint store and placed my name on the waiting list #70. That was a week and two days ago, still haven't heard from them.

I tried Best Buy one last time, and they had a shipment arrive 15 minutes earlier. I walked out of the store with an EVO last Tuesday. The guy said they'd probably be sold out in 3 hours.

yeah i am calling every shack and sprint store in 50 miles but only one place has one and i really don't want to pay 300 when i can preorder one and just waite a couple more weeks and get it for 199 or waite for a radio shed to get one in i have seen them in and out of the sheds. it's just a matter of waiting but it still sux

i hate bestbuy here in wa they don't carry sprint in the store. if they did thats one more place i could keep haseling

 

[mattpsx2]

Yeah my best buy's in Hawaii don't have that. The guy in the Sprint store told me I should just order online from Best Buy. I ended up paying I think $210 or so after tax. I say you should just order the white one since you're probably going to get a case anyway right? I just ordered the black Seidio case which hopefully will come in before my phone does.

 

[Jack Daniels]

i'm thinking thats probibly the only way is to order the white but i am going to hold out tell friday

 

[Jusjun]

Jack, where in WA do you live? The best buys by my house carries Sprint..

 

[Jack Daniels]

lacey wa

The Best Buy by me in D.C. features the EVO 4G phone heavily. They have like 4 demo copies to play with.

It's hard to believe that a Best Buy wouldn't carry Sprint phones. But then again, I don't know very much.

 

[Jack Daniels]

best buy can only showcase 3 carriers at a time and sadly here in wa most of them don't carry sprint

 

[Jack Daniels]

so i have been trying to call best buy all day (there phone order line) and the one time i get through i missed them having some evos twice what rotten luck

Are you sure. They've been saying "Usual Ships in 6 to 7 weeks" for the last two weeks now. I just checked right now and it still says that.

My bad it didnt say that when I ordered. Ordered mine last week it says delivery will be on July 1st.

 

[Jack Daniels]

the problem with amazon isn't just shipping i only get 199 if i am a new customer or add a line not for my upgrade

 

[Jack Daniels]

well no luck today but if i call early enough tomorrow maybe i will have better luck
