Wirefly:
I just spoke with "aaron" of wirefly via online chat.
Apparently they will not be receiving phones until the 26th. meaning you can expect shipments to go out on the 26th AT THE EARLIEST. The later in line you are, the higher the chances you may get delayed even more.
1-Day shipping means the 27th at the earliest, so no time to play with it on the weekend...
Since going with wirefly does save me $70, tax, plus friends and family store, I'll be anxiously waiting, but this does suck
Amazon:
Their website states estimated delivery date of July 1st with 2-day shipping as well!
.
If you go through wirefly friends and family its 150 not sure of the downside though

Unfortunately, since i save on tax (almost 10%), and it's $20 cheaper than RS or Sprint, coupled with the extra $25 off through fatwallet, I can't say that 3 days is worth $70, but this really annoys me.

I dont know how to get any of these HELP!!!
1. go here: http://www.fatwallet.com/Wirefly-coupons/ for the click-through. it gives you $25 cash back for ordering any phone on wirefly.
2. to get friends and family price (which is $149.99) google wirefly friends and family.
3. if you have Bank of America, go here: https://additup.bankofamerica.com , and then access wirefly, and you get $50 in your BofA account.
But, all these options do not allow you to have your phone on the 24th.
I don't think you can take the word from 1 chat representative and say it's delayed. I called and asked and they said it would ship on the 24th. Now I'm regretting putting $50 down at Radioshack. I may get it from wirefly friends and family for $150 and then get $50 to spend at Radioshack on accessories and what not...

I hope you're right. I also pre-ordered at radioshack, but I figure, if I pick up the phone for $150, i save taxes and basically got the gift card for free... if my 3D is delayed too far out (very possible since i just purchased this morning depending on their stock and looking at amazon's status), i'll just pick it up from radio shack. I'll talk to another wirefly rep in a bit and see if i get the same answer.

I went with The Shack. Wirefly has some ridiculous policy that if you swap phone numbers on the 3D they charge you like 300 dollars. My wife has a full upgrade, mine isnt up until July so I'm getting the 3D on her upgrade then giving her my Evo. She can't wait to get rid of her Pre, and I'll still be sitting on a full upgrade for the next best phone when July rolls around.

I've been hearling a little bit about that $300 charge. Is that for as long as you have the phone, or not?
Second question, are you guys saying that I can use the family & friends discount with the fatwallet discount and pay only like $125 for my EVO?

I was checking the sprint community forum and seen something that makes sense:
"i work for sprint and they have extended the date of no mail in rebates 3 times already. now it doesnt end until 6/4/2011. and what i have seen is that each date that they extend the instant rebates the day after is the date of a new phone. originally the instant savings was to end on april 16th the day before the echo is released, then it was extended to may 7th the day before the nexus is to come out. now it is extended to june 6th and im hoping they announce the release of the htc evo 3d for june 7th. plus the evo was released in june so i think the 3d will follow suit for sure. It should be a one of a kind phone for sure."
I was also talking to a sprint rep who told me that the number transfer rebate expires 06/23 (what I mean by this is the sprint 'credits' as they call it) in which he said that most likely the EVO 3D would come out after that date.(He made sure to explain to me he didn't exactly know the date and just described a pattern). I also notice the mistake on dates in the quote above it should be 06/04, more info can be found at http://community.sprint.com/baw/message/283940#283940.
So two possible dates, I assume it will be earlier in June. (June 5th)
I was going to pre order it, but with no price point set for without contract purchase and I don't think it would to wise to do that. Would hate to pre order a phone with $50 and it ends up costing $700 full retail, and I'm not paying that. Would have been nice to have a price to go by.

I am sure you can wait until the price is released before pre-ordering. The pre-orders right now are not even being advertised yet so I would think you will still be good once a price is released.
Sprint Rep told me it would most likely cost as much as the EVO 4G, which was $199.99. Based upon all phone carriers, I would say it would not go above $299.99. Also Best Buy Pre-order is not through sprint I was told because Sprint is not doing Pre-Orders. I have to order mine through a rep to get my discounts so I have to wait anyways.

They give you a $50 gift card as "proof" of the pre-order more or less. Could just use the $50 gift card on something else. If you change your mind, they don't expect you to use it exclusively on the phone.
For instance, I could go use mine right now on an XBOX game right now and still be on the pre-order list. And I could also just NOT pick up the phone.
The 3D blockbuster app goes live on June 2nd, so the Evo 3D probably wont launch much after that.
I'm betting on June 3rd, simply because its the first friday of June as was June 4th last year. Plus, June 3rd is better than the 5th or 23rd...

Pre orders at best buy are refundable, they just give you a $50 gift card that you can return or use if you decide to not go through with the purchase. $700 full retail sounds about right though, I'd personally buy it at that price point.

Speak for yourself, I'm hoping for a June 23rd release as that is my upgrade date. I've preordered so if the phone drops before that date I'll have to convice sprint to move up my date, convice best buy to hold my preorder, or pay full retail.

so couldn't you just wait till the 23rd to get the phone??? Why couldn't the evo3d come out the 3rd and you can't wait to upgrade 20 more days
Haha, I'd like to get it today so the sooner the better for me. Also if its after the 23rd then that would suck for people like me who get a $175 discount off the phone from transferring my number and my work discount. So if the phone costs $199.99 like the EVO 4G did then it will only cost me $25. Also as soon as I heard about the EVO 3D my Fuze has been going slower, freezing more and just being a pain in the @ss. It's not worth it to flash an update and try to clean it up, just going to deal with it until the EVO comes out so the day I get it, it will be even nicer. (Cleared some info as it forced me to)
The $175 discount is actually $125 for transferring the number from a different carrier, and $50 from work to clarify for people that are also transferring and be sure to tell the rep that as they may not as or try to find discounts your entitled to. Best Buy didn't ask anything but do your research and tell them where you work to see if you get a discount such as state employee (usually 15%, included teachers, police, etc. (again look this up this is on memory of 2 years ago and I'm not sure what all carriers do on monthly discounts). Remember, Google is your friend on finding you discounts so be sure to use it. (Example: See promo code from a site that your buying something such as advanced auto parts, if you don't Google and active Promo code to save money then your a retard.)

No way I'm paying $700 for a Cell phone. Sprint will have it cheaper than Best Buy most likely anyway. The original Evo is $450 at Sprint and like $550 at Best Buy. They mark their phones up big time.

You have to be employed by certain companies or be a member of certain groups. Every company/group get a different discount.
Ex. The company I work for can get 7% off AT&T but can get 23% off with Sprint. I use the discount through my wife's company, and we get 25% with Sprint.
Lots of different ways.....you are probably eligible to get some kind of discount and you don't know it.

I asked this a while back and was told you could get discounts off some plans but no discounts on the simply everything plans - which for me are the only plans that will work based on the large number of minutes I need - and I don't need a family plan.

per the press release, looks like premier customers can buy the Evo3D on June 21st online.
"Additionally, Sprint Premier customers will have the opportunity to purchase HTC EVO 3D online three days before the national launch, while supplies last. Qualifying customers will receive an email on June 21, or they can log on to their account at www.sprint.com on June 21, click "show me my rewards" and then "Sprint Premier Community" for more information."

I never bought a phone online before, would you really get it sooner by ordering it online then just going into the store on the 24th?
Yes, Sprint typically ships Overnight so you have a chance to get it a day or 2 before the release in store.
I'll be trying to order mine right at midnight! Everytime one ordered from online or telesales I've gotten it in a day.

Nice, so basically If I order on the 21st I should get it on the 22nd?
should. "while supplies last". giving it to you 1.5 days before everyone that pre-ordered...
the other option is to wait till the 24th, and be guaranteed to have one waiting for you.
i'd go the pre-order route rather than be SOL
Just for clarification,
This is for silver and gold premier or gold premier only? If gold only, what about the people who got 'temp gold' status on their account to get the evo 3d. Will they qualify? I'm thinking it's any premier but better to make sure now than be disappointed later.
EDIT..further thoughts...If Sprint sticks to their plan to drop the instant rebates on the 23rd. The premier people could still get it since they are getting the phone a couple days early!

I don't think anyone has "temporary" Gold Premier status. From what the reps told me when I got mine reset, is depending on the situation, they would just reset your upgrade date. They checked their systems to see if you were previously qualified for the upgrade in June, (or whenever,) and if that was the case, they simply reset it. For me, they saw that I had been a Premier customer since it's inception, and that I recently switched from my SEP, to a family, then back to SEP, so they COMPLETELY reset my account back to Gold.
Either way, I go 10-year Gold in November, so it doesn't really matter. Maybe I'll get another upgrade then? haha
ill just get it the day it comes out. my job lets me out for summer break the 23. id rather the phone not sit on my porch while i am at work. plus i already have 2 pre orders.

I'll be 10 year gold at the end of October so I'll be right there with you!
I called in to account services cause i am a gold member so no worries there.
First silver or Gold if you are a premier customer you can order it.
Second.I said when on the 21st will i be able to do it since ill do it at midnight if that is the case.
I was then transferred to premier rewards and they told me that when they come in at 8am they will put it on the site.
Now if that is 8am est pst i did not ask but this is what i got.
Already preordered through a Sprint corporate location. I'm 1st on the list there, but I'll be eligible to buy it online on the 21st. I'm trying to decide if I should buy it early online or wait 3 more days and pick it up at the store. Any reason I should wait til the 24th? Discount on accessories if I pick it up in the store or anything like that?
There's a chance you wouldn't get the purchase in, in time. As you wont be able to preorder on the 21st, but rather, check the site during the time they're selling. I'd say it's worth waiting one day to ensure you get it (as Sprint does 2 dayshipping (rarely overnights it)).
Yeah....Im sticking with my instore preorder...
Take Sprints 2 day shipping policy....add 2 days because it takes forever to get things here....I get it on the 25th....
No thanks!
I'm a 10 year gold so I'm pretty sure I could order it on the 21st and it only takes 1 day to get it when they've mailed me phones in the past. Only problem is i preordered at RS about a week or so ago and will be stuck with a $50 gift card..... hmmm choices choices...
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Use the RS gift card for accessories. Maybe a nice case or if we should be so lucky, a car dock.
Instant Rebate
If I pre-order on the 21st (i'm gold) can i get the $100 instant rebate and the $150 discount on the phone??????
Sprint also charges no activation fees for phones ordered online, so you will save the $30 fee of activating the phone. That is your perk for not flooding the stores.
You can also ask them to waive it.....They will in most cases...just be polite and ask....
Just curious if anybody had any opinions on where the best place to buy this beast would be? So far I'm thinking Amazon Wireless. The Rezound is $200 there and the phone that I will be getting for the wife is free. Beyond that any possible price match scenarios? Thanks in advance for your advice!
If you want it now, then a corporate Verizon Store. If you can wait, then Amazon as its cheaper and you could save on tax.
Wal-mart! If they have it in stock. It's like 220 - 230...
radioshack.com & wirefly.com have it for $249.
wireless.amazon.com has it for $229 (upgrade), $199 (new contract)
I went to Best Buy and had them price match Amazon's price of $229 for my upgrade. Great deal IMO.
I got it with the Accessory Bundle from VZW Store when the opened Monday morning for $288 total on upgrade. But, I had a $50 discount and I am a Veteran(15% Discount)... lol
wirefly.com has it for $220 for new contract. Free FedEx and no sales tax I believe. And they have the double your data offer available too.
Thanks everyone for your input...I'm seriously at war with myself about getting either this or waiting for the Nexus, I just can't decide!

$100 Amazon gift card with Hot Spot plan!
Hey! I was just checking on the Amazon price and they added a new incentive!
If you add a Hot Spot to your service at activation you get a $100 Amazon Gift Card. I don't see any fine print stating how long you have to have the Hot Spot feature. For what I was looking at it costs $20 more per month so even if I keep it for 1 month that's an $80 "discount" on the phone. Brings it down from their current $200 to $120. And I don't think Amazon taxes phones and there's free 2 day shipping.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/?docId=1000745951
And they too have the double data available on their site.
I think I'm about to check out and complete purchase!

I wonder if it occurs to HTC that the lack of S-off and root could effect sales.
Verizon is certainly being rather pricky about not letting me upgrade early...I've gotta wait until December 27th.

I did the Amazon 1 cent deal. It's real. No tax, rebate, shipping charges, nothing! They actually charged my card .01! It's due here tomorrow. And unless there's a rock in the box, I'm prolly gonna like that deal.
I also got in on the 1 cent deal from amazon wireless and waiting for mine as well, it runs til the 28th so if you want to save 200-300 bucks prob the best deal you'll get
Just remember, it's for new customers only. Will not work for upgrade.
%[email protected]$ [email protected]#$ @#$ Found this today, AFTER picking up my 2nd pre-order (they f'd up and only had one of my phones in the first time).
But anyways, go here: myrewardzone.bestbuy.com/offers/offersandpromotions/info/0900a76f8009596b
You MUST buy the phone (upgrade, new service, whatever from that site) and you must be a rewardzone member (free). I tried to get the points added to mine, but they said it had to be ordered from there, does not work on in-store purchases.
Anyways, they will give you $100 in rewardzone certificates (I never used these, but I think it's just gift cards to use in BestBuy or something) but if you go there anyways, it's a good deal.
Offer begins: 5/30/2012 expires: 06/05/2012
Lots o' threads and posts on this here, at Android Central and elswhere. Plus there is a Sprint smartphone upgrade $50 price reduction on top of the two gift cards. Got my Evo for $49 since they let you use the gift cards as part of the phone purchase.
And those that got the "forever" coupon thing back in Feb. get another $50 so was free phone time!
WOW! Wish I'd known about all that stuff. I had a bunch of gift cards I'd won previously and used them with the $50 instnat rebate so paid a little less than $100 for my first one, and 2nd one I just go the $50 off so paid $150.
$250 for two EVO 4G LTE phones isn't bad though, haha. Might sell my 2nd one for $650 since everyone is offering that much for it, in which case I'd have been PAID $400 to upgrade to one. ;-p
If I knew they were doing that promo, I'd have just pre-ordered online. I guess I didn't look hard enough, but it just came out and I wanted to secure my pre-order position ASAP. I should've done it anyway for my 2nd line though since they messed up my pre-order and I got it late anyway.

Offer begins: 5/30/2012 expires: 06/05/2012

just got off the phone with their mobile support. the rewardzone certificates are added to the account like 40 days after purchase so you'd have to put down the $199.99 for the purchase and use the certificates to buy visa giftcards or something. and if you're thinking you can get the $50 gift card too, its in-store only. so its one or the other

What $50 GC? -50$ Freedom ended in Feb, -50$ Pre-order probablay ended last night , and the -50$ LTE ended on the 1st.. All I think we have now is a Target or Sam's Club PM @ $149 and or this -100$ RZ credit.
Anyone else have any ideas not including trade-ins?

PM?
walmart has it too for that price I think.
Yeah going through the order on their rewards site, it gives you the $100 rewards at checkout but will not apply them to that order so you're still paying $199 upfront.

Just Released Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE
$50 gift card with 2-year activation at Best Buy by 7/7/12.
its right on their website
Can either the $50 gift card OR the $100 reward zone points be sold?
Best Buy has nothing besides the phone I want to buy but if I could sell those things on ebay or something for at least 90% of the actual cost it would be worth it I think.

Yes but if you order through the rewardszone website which is separate, they are not giving you the $50 giftcard from bestbuy.com.
At this point what I'm thinking is PM to $149 and have them apply the -50$ GC to the purchase. The -50$ activation promotion on BB.com is the same as thei n-store -50$ off EVO LTE. So they will apply it to the purchase, it's just a matter of IF you can get them to agree to PM then remind them of the -50$.

Price match, with my zip Walmart shows 189 on upgrades now so YMMV.

Any GC you can sell unfortunately the -100$ RZ is tied to your account and prints out as a voucher.

Correct, the only way around this would be to do an in-store pickup OR register for the promotion online.
I think I might bite on this. Right now I pay $150 at Amazon. At best buy it would be phone + tax - rz credit - gc right?
So 200 + 62 - 100 - 50 = 112?

No I cannot guarantee you'll get the -50$ online activation credit in combination to the -100$ RZ credit. I was told that they are different sites and have different policy. If you could do an in-store pickup then MAYBE but since that is not an option it is one or the other.
It'll be Upgrade @ 200 - 50 for Target PM - 50$ for LTE/Activation promo = 100 + tax at BEST!
No, you can't pick it up, only ship to your house But its still cheaper than Amazon $131 with 2day shipping ($5) and tax with the rz certificate factored in.
Amazon won't even tell me when they are shipping! Plus they were $150. So I saved about 20$ and hopefully will get it much quicker! THANKS EVERYONE!
Oh BTW! Order it tonight and use the code SAVE15 to get $30 off
Another happy WireFly Cancellation
Went into BB Mobile store, picked up my handset happily canceled WF order. I can confirm (YMMV) BB will PM Target.com/Sam's Club then apply -50$ Sprint instant activation promo. While you will pay tax you have a device in your hand AND it will be $100. You can do even better then that with a few more things we mentioned here (which I did) but do what you have to $100 is better then $200.
I have a pending order with Wirefly.
I placed the order on 11/15.
Anyone who placed an order with Wirefly gotten an email confirmation?
Thanks.
Cancelled my Wirefly Order
I cancelled my order with Wirefly and just decided to p/u directly from the VZW store. Wirefly, when I called them to inquire on my order, they had me on hold for approximately 20 minutes. Then when someone finally picked up, the representative stated they have no ETA as to when the DNA would arrive in their warehouse for shipment but they would "upgrade" me to overnight once they receive the device. I went and picked mine up from the VZW store last Wednesday and have been enjoying it since. It's up to you but for the extra $50 you cldve been had your device duke. Just a thought ya know
I also cancelled my Wirefly order. When it had not shipped by release day I cancelled and ordered through VZW. Just got mine today. Damn holidays and weekend pushed out my shipping. All good now. Never go near wirefly again
My order just shipped.
I am going through wirefly because they also have another $50 cashback with my credit card.
I had them upgrade my shipping to Next Day air as well.
Either way thanks for the response.

I was wondering what day you ordered your DNA?
I ordered thru Wirefly once. Worst experience ever! Ordered an Evo LTE and a gnex
They billed me twice and there were a hundred other problems over the 2wk period. Also, if you change your phone plan, or lose or deactivate your device within the first 180 days, you owe them around 400$ penalty. I cancelled the order for one of the devices.
hurled from my AOKP'd Evo LTE. Enjoy.
I ordered 2 on the 17th one shipped today should get it tomorrow, the other says awaiting inventory
Edit: have you been on there website to make sure Verizon approved it?
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda premium
mine should ship out tomorrow, i got the rep to give me next day shipping. i ordered on the 18th.
Iv never run into any issues activating the phone on different line, but thats just my experience

the only thing to worry about is if you do something to that line that effects wirefly's commision. If they don't get paid by verizon, they will get paid by you.

yea but iv done this my thunderbolt and gnex, i'll report back when i get the phone and activate.
Edit: Received shipping confirmation today 11/27/12, delivery should be tomorrow 11/28/12
What is deactivate?
Anyone know if I order this on a new line on a current Share Everything and then deactivate a different line which is not under any contract will cause problems? Will Verizon "report to Wirefly" that I deactivated? Will Wirefly charge me?
Transferred my upgrade to my sister's line and activated it on my line, retained my unlimited!
I'll see if wirefly contact me but it should be fine.
no issues activating, just inserted the sim from my gnex into the DNA and it worked.
