So what exactly is the MSRP on this phone?

I won't be up for an upgrade until next year so the $200 is out of the window. I don't mind paying full price but it seems different stores are marking it at different prices.

Radio shack has theirs for $499.99
Best Buy has theirs for $599.99

I swear saw $449.99 at one point but not sure where.

Any clue at to what the actual unsubsidized price of this phone is?
 
sprint sent out an email a while back
Phone Offer: While supplies last. $449.99 - $150.00 (two-year activation) - $100.00 (mail-in rebate) = $199.99 (final price).

Yeah a while back...things changed... just like when I first went into BB they said it would be $499.....now its $599.... without proof... it means nothing....post a copy of this email...that would really help

Thank you for delivering the good kind sir...Because Come Fri I might need this

Didn't you just say that despite e-mails sent out from Sprint, that you're refusing to believe them because "things may change?"

I'm not even going to waste my time posting the e-mails I've gotten from Sprint, because then you'll accuse me of photoshopping them. :rolleyes:

I would love to see the email.. I have seen nothing that says the unsubsidized price is $449... I see pleanty that say upgrades are 449-150-100MiR.....

I called Telesales twice to confirm (first girl had broken english) and they told me $499 both times..

I understand everyones logic on saying it is $449, but there are some other phones on the Sprint site that are more expensive "base price" without a contract renewal, so I wouldn't say the $499 is out of the question..

If someone can please show me $449 without a contract renewal, I'd be all over it! Yes, $50 more is a breaking point for me.. :)


---- Follow up.. I just looked at the Sprint site.. One without an upgrade on my plan and one with.. Base price looks the same across the board.. So I am wrong on that point.. Needless to say, I am optimistic..
