Does anyone know when the instant rebate offer will end from Sprint? Will it be renewed again like it has been so far or will it end before the Evo 3D is released?
I'm asking because I want to preorder the Evo 3D from Sprint, but if I have to go through a mail in rebate I might as well go to Radioshack.

Go with Radioshack anyways. They charge tax on the sale price of the phone, not the "without contract" price. I know cause I added on an EVO and Shift onto my account this weekend.

Are you sure? Did this just start recently? They didn't tax me on the full price of the phone when I bought my Evo from BB last year. I still have the receipt. I was charged the two year upgrade rate of 199.00 for the phone and I bought a 35.00 case along with it. The subtotal was 234.98. Tax was 16.45. Total cost was 251.43. Tax rate in Indiana is 7 percent. Had I been charged tax on the full price of the phone which was what? 600.00? I would have paid almost 42.00 on the phone tax alone.
Now what they did do that I didn't like, was charge tax on the 50 dollar gift card which should have been deducted from the final tax cost but it wasn't so I paid 3.50 too much in tax.
Alright I pre-ordered it. The dude that worked there was cool... I almost thought they were closed because there was only 1 car towards the back and looked dark. Anyway the dude that worked there was really cool and we talked about the phone a little. He said he thinks early- mid June and also that he would personally call or email me when the release date is announced.

E3D Is where its at
Finally realized that.
That's what XDA is for right? I think a few devs are moving from Evo to Evo 3D, so there will probably be quite a few stable roms after the release.
As far as a bootloader, maybe someone will crack it? I only hope HTC and Sprint aren't going down that road.
I'm wondering what they are going to want you to put down on it.

I've got $10 gift card to use towards something there! How much is the phone when you pre-order? $200 with 2yr contract?
Sprint is also doing the instant rebate until June 4th, and i think the E3 is comming out on the same day? I guess my safe bet is just to go with Best Buy.

Really??? I only thought that T-Mobile was the only one that did that (at least in Puerto Rico, T-Mobile lets you get any phone and split the total cost in 4 payments that get added to your next 4 billing statements). If Sprint does this, then this is a no-brainer.
Pre Ordered Last Night
Pre ordered my EVO 3D last night from the Best Buy on 23rd and 6th ave in NYC.
The store on 62nd and Broadway hadn't heard about it and were a bit ignorant (told me TMO Nexus S works on any carrier, including Sprint and Verizon. Argued it had GSM and CDMA radio in it...)
The pre order cost me $50, which they put onto a gift card and had me fill out a small paper with name and phone number which they entered into their system.
Also, they didn't check my current sprint account.
Hope that helps anybody curious about the process. Very quick and simple when the store is aware of the EVO 3D pre order!

I would never pay more than 1-200 dollars for a phone. Anyone pays 4-500 dollars for a freakin phone to have for 1-2 years is crazy. **** I bought my sons first car for 600 dollars 2 years ago.

I got my 3d for free technically. My local Walmart has it for 98 bucks and at the time (i think theyre still doing this) they are giving 100 dollar gift cards to anyone that gets a smartphone... So basically they paid me 2 bucks to take it off their hands. Being that this is my second one i was scared itd be hboot 1.5 but apparently back home no one buys sprint phones because coverage is spotty at best..... So i ended up getting it with hboot 1.3
And to they guy debating on epic touch or 3d... Id recommend the 3d if you like custom roms. There are a lot more options with roms, kernels, and overclocking with the 3d. I had it and wasnt overly impressed except for the gorgeous display. Damn i love those amoleds.

Don't you have to renew your contract though? I mean it's not like you can just buy the phone for that price without renewing or signing a new contract....?
Wow, Sprint really nuked their trade-in program. I was considering buying an EVO 4G LTE at full price (I am not up for an upgrade yet) in exchange for trading in my EVO 3D. But they are only giving $90 for the 3D! Wow. I traded in my EVO for $200 when I got the 3D. Did they gut the program?
I also considered Radio Shack. I know that last year they were also taking $200 for the EVO. But they are only offering $13! Insane.
It's valued for $120 at radioshack

Should've bought your phone from bestbuy. They have the best buyback.
Up to 1 year you can get 40% back from price before carrier discounts (that's $280) and 30% back after one year.
So I'm planning on using my wife's upgrade on the Evo LTE which will be -$200 but then selling the phone back so I get +$280, ending up with $80 of money I can spend on whatever I want.

When I traded in my OG Evo for the 3D on 7/23/2011, they were giving $150.00 since they were still selling them at the time and were going to sell for the immediate future. Since the Evo 3D is already EOL for Sprint, they really don't need them so they are priced low.
The 3Ds are still selling on Ebay for $150.00+.

2nd for buying it from Best Buy. Buyback program is quite handy for those who would upgrade often. I can get at least 150 for mine and I've had it since launch.
Feh, I don't get an upgrade until November. Might as well wait for ICS.
I think it's just this phone. It wasn't that big of a hit and the value on it isn't really good. There are Evo 4G's selling on CL around here for just as much as the 3D's are. When I sold mine I wasn't getting any offers more than like $140 or so because that's what everyone else around here was selling em for.

Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA
It's been a long grueling last year with my OG Evo and it's time to part ways. I've always been and HTC supporter and I will continue to support their product. I will be getting an EVO LTE but paying the full $199 just seems outlandish especially now that ATT and T-Mobile dropped the One X to $99.99. I have some other options rather than buying directly from Sprint but I wanted to know other people's experience. Radioshack and Wirefly will ship one to my house, FedEx next day (which means I wouldn't get it till Tuesday), for $149.99 even. I was wanting to know any drawbacks to purchasing from these two providers rather than going through Sprint. I do have full insurance through Asurion so accidental damage isn't my concern but more of what happens if there is a manufactures defect? Also, anybody heard any news of Sprint reducing the price so they can compete? I would hate to pay $199 and then have Sprint drop it to $99 in the next month or so.
I could also go to Best Buy and get it for $149.99. I think this is going to be my first option considering my patience with my OG is running really thin. I am also selling my great condition OG with a ton of stuff so if anyone want to shoot me an offer, I would definitely think about it before posting on eBay.
It's too bad you didn't get it last week bestbuy had it for $99 for a week. I just got mine this pay Friday paid $104 out the door

Ya I just checked and it is only for brand new lines. I need to upgrade so it would be $99 which isn't bad. I may just have to do that. I may walk in to best buy and see if they will honor last weeks price because I'm technically not eligible until Sept 1st and I've tried everything to get my date pushed up. Once again I am upgrading and not starting a new line or contract. The prices vary drastically.
Amazon wireless will have the best deal. No tax.

Ya I just checked and it is only for brand new lines. I need to upgrade so it would be $99 which isn't bad. I may just have to do that. I may walk in to best buy and see if they will honor last weeks price because I'm technically not eligible until Sept 1st and I've tried everything to get my date pushed up. Once again I am upgrading and not starting a new line or contract. The prices vary drastically.

I think that the most important part for you is to get evo with 1.12 hboot. If you go to the big stores or sprint corporate store you may not find it. You need to go to small stores that sell sprint phones, that way you may get lucky.

Yah absolutely. The problem is small stores that sell Sprint have to abide by Sprint's pricing. I fell like if I order one online, it will come boxed and I can do whatever from there. I'm sure there will be a LazyPanda updated for 1.15 but who knows when. Having radio S-OFF isn't the biggest deal to me as long as I can get root. It sucks not being able to sideload firmware but what are you going to do about HTC and their bootloaders. I think I'm going to go through Amazon. It seems to be the only place to get the upgrade price of $99.99.

So get a new line and shutdown the old one. You'll get it for $99 then.

I'm on a family plan. How does that actually work? Would I have to get a new number?

Yes to a new number. Sucks a little but saves some money.

If you have a Sam's Club membership, it's $98.
