Midnight Ordering On-Line TONIGHT @ vzw.com

[willdogs]

Who else is with me?

I will not be able to get to the store tomorrow and I also HATE long lines so I am choosing to order online (hopefully at midnight) and receive my phone on Friday.

It's not confirmed that it will actually be up on the site at midnight tonight, but common sense tells me that it will be

Let's see what happens.

I'll be right there with ya. if it's not midnight I'll be back on checking every couple hours

Does it usually open up at midnight local time? Or do we have to wait until 3am ET?

Most likely 3am ET.

 

[howarmat]

i will be there 3 am ordering

 

[Yellow Snowman]

Depends. How much will it be?

 

[willdogs]

I guess 3am it is (but im still checking at 12am just incase lol)

I also forgot the other reason I am ordering online, I get $50 off on the price of the phone through my employee discount. For this alone, I am willing to wait until friday for the phone.

Here is a Chat I had with a Verizon Member. It starts at midnight on the east coast. So just do the time zone math for your area. I myself am going to the store in the morning. I did the midnight ordering for the droid x and I didnt recieve my DX till a week later because they ran out of stock. I ordered the darn thing 5 minutes after the website went live.

I would assume it is $249.99 for 2 year and a extra $100 for just a one year contract. That is how the DX was.

 

[howarmat]

VZW just said midnight ordering not 3 am

 

[upz33]

Not only Midnight ordering but 1-year was confirmed for $319.99!

 

[ChiTownJim]

[howarmat]

It's usually free , I can not remember ever paying for a new release on launch day.

I think I'm down for that. $250 - loyalty discount which I think is $50. So $200 same as wirelfy. lol Best Buy.

Used to be $100 but vzw is getting cheap these days. And by cheap I mean costing us more.

Just trying to see what advantages or if its worth it for me to do 1 yr or 2 yr contract.

 

[mrjinglesusa]

I remember getting a $150 discount on my VX6800 on top of their new customer sale price. I don't suspect I'll see those days again, although I will say that they've already applied about $70 last month and this month towards my upgrade. Will be interesting to see if I get my corporate discount on the phone or if my discount only covers accessories.

I am almost 100 % sure that only apply to accessories and your plan costs (for main line only).

It was midnight for all launches except the iphone which is due to it being on apple's time so I would imagine it will be at midnight this time

I somewhat remember it only applying to accessories, but I also recall paying considerably less on one upgrade. My discount on accessories is about 20% or so. Would be nice to get 20% off of the TB on top of my current discounts.
