On july 1st I'm going to call/ chat to see if I can get the full upgrade restored (since that was the date I was going to get the $150 upgrade until they shafted us. :/) On another note, I'm also eyeing Amazon's off contract ($469 total) princing which isn't too bad.
Still I'm interested to hear how much in total, did each of you pay for the EVO 3D, did you have your upgrade ($75/$150), exisiting customer, evo trade in? etc.
Details.
Well, if sprint gives me the $150 for the evo (like they currently say that's what they are giving from sprint buyback) then it will only cost me $50 tomorrow.

469.99 from Amazon
Once I sell my old Evo on ebay, I should be getting paid to get the new Evo.

Sadly I have a bad feeling that trade-in value for the EVO is going to go down when the E3D launches
I got mine from wireless.amazon.com for $179.99 free 2-day shipping and no taxes (Ca)

That's what I did, except I took in my evo 4g a couple days ago just in case they tell us tomorrow that the evo 4g buyback price just got reduced. So yeah, for me $50
I paid -$125.
+250 for EVO
-225 for Evo3D
+100 Credit for extending my contract

Yes I've sold enough on Ebay to know this. I'd have to sell it at $175 on ebay to get the $150 peole are getting from Sprint. Looking at Ebay and with my track record I don't see a problem with this going over $225 especially with the condition and accessories I have.
I love these threads but at least the OP of this one posted it where we knew when we came in what to expect.
So ok
-250 for selling my EVO
-100 EXTENDING MY CONTRACT
+215 what the evo 3d cost me
=======================================
I made $135$ but as we all know we had to extend out contract and also the evo we sold did cost us money to begin with.
If i count the $200 i made on selling a extra evo 3d then it is even more
I made money on mine.
One year ago i walked into radio shack with 2 iphone 3g's. I walked out with 2 evos and $300 on a gift card (so i was already up $300 at this point). Later on i lost my one of my evos, $100 to replace. I traded my evo and $50 for the evo 3d. So all said and done, i made a few dollars .
I lost -50, therefore saying i made 50. Had sprint do a manual override to give me the full upgrade and then i sold my evo for 250.
$149.99 straight up with free/included 2-day shipping from Wirefly's Friends and Family "deal." I've heard a lot of malarkey about them charging you 300-400 bucks for cancelling before 6 months or something, but I feel good waiting until Monday to get it. It shipped today (thursday) but it's shipping across the country.
$199.99 minus the credit they give me for my Epic 4G since it hasnt been 30 days yet, plus i get a case and zagg shield, because im returning those as well to bestbuy, so im a happy campier.
Sold 2 EVOs for $100 each to family member and a friend EVO 3D $199 my cost zero.
Hello,
Sprint charged me $219.69 for the 3D with Florida Taxes. I got a 30 Dollar Credit from Retention when I was told that there was no chance that my 3D was going to arrive on Wednesday (which it ended up being Delivered then and before 10 AM to boot) with the 30 Dollars off,this brought me down to $189.69.
I sold my EVO 4G for 300 Dollars as it was Replaced last Week and I included 2 Otterbox Defender Cases, the Original Packaging for the Phone, Cases, also threw in the HTC HDMI Dock as well and also had the Box for that as well.
So I ended up making $110.61. I did end up buying a Otterbox Defender and Screen Savers to get 25% off and that cost me $49 Dollars. So with the new Case, I ended up making $61.31.
Cheers,
JJ
Ok I set the wheel in motion.
I called every dept to get my upgrade reset, no go but they did tell me this alternative below:
I'm going to buy-out of my contract for $75, buy the EVO 3D at $216.xx & sell my EVO 4G for the $150 buy-back.
It'll cost me $141 (Billed to the acct, due AUG) by the time its done.
Not bad at all.
Sold my EVO for $250 on craigslist.
Bought evo 3d for 199.99.
Got a $100 rebate for being a Chase employee.
Net- I made $150 to upgrade.
Sprint gave me the Premiere credit for a full upgrade (had this done at store since they changed it on us and made it a 2yr wait)
New EVO 3D w/tax 218.xx
Sold old EVO 4G to friend -180.00
Total Spent 38.xx
Could have gotten more for my EVO but hooked up a friend.

I'm planning on getting the EVO 3D off contract but so far I only see Radio Shack quoting it at $499. Has anyone heard of other retailer pricing? Does Amazon sell phones off contract? If $499 is the lowest and Amazon sells off contract then no tax or shipping cost would be better than RS or BB.
I realize the release date is still ad few weeks away but maybe we can use this thread to update competitor pricing for those looking for off contact purchases.
Radio Shack: HTC EVO 3D - $499
Amazon.com: HTC EVO 3D - $469 (no tax, free shipping)
bam! 4th thread asking the same question...... congratulations!!!!!!!!
short answer...... its all speculation. Leaked ad showed it selling at $499 off contract but nothing official was released.
oh that $499 price was Radio Shack. Sprint and Best Buy may have a different price assuming that $499 was accurate.
ok let this thread die until stores officially release pricing
My intention is to keep this thread dedicated to places selling off contract so people don't have to wade through the contract discussion. I would also update the OP to include the list people suggest. I agree there are too many identical threads but this would attempt to direct off contract customers here.
Brick and mortar, online, wholesalers, etc. Preferably avoiding shady places.
until there are official off contract pricing this thread is useless and would just be cluttered up with guesses providing no real info. Let the other threads collect that junk that have been collecting other people's junk.
When there is official pricing then a thread like this would be useful
I am buying off contract as well. I will keep an eye out on this thread but my guess is that Sprint will have the lowest price,BB will have the highest, & not sure about the others.
I just for an email about the Evo 3D from Sprint this morning.
It said $199 on contract with $200 instant savings, and that's it. It'd be hard to believe that it would only be $400, but that's kinda how it looked to me. I'll upload a screen shot in a minute.
Isn't this thing supposed to be an e-reader, weird.

thats how it looks at first glance but read it carefully. $200 instant savings. That may not mean $200 2 year contract instant savings. Or it could.
I just have a hard time believing that the new flagship phone will be cheaper retail than 5 other phones they carry all which have a $300-$350 difference between contract and non contract price
The fine print was posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112504&page=3
I'm also buying off contract.
If it's $199.00 after $200.00 in instant savings then I'm guessing that's also after the full $150.00 contract renewal discount.
I'm predicting it will be $549.00 from Sprint and either the same or $599 from BestBuy.
I already posted what the price is in another thread
199.00 upgrade price
200.00 instant savings
150.00 the upgrade savings
total retail at sprint 549.99

Better off getting a new contract for $200, switching numbers, and canceling the old line for another 200.

Extremely easy. Just call from a phone other than the two you want to swap. They ask you to turn them off and they ask for some number behind the battery.

I'm hoping for some type of release of a off contract price. Seems kind of odd they haven't released it yet. Kind of pisses me off frankly.
so further thinking, instead of paying $549 for the off contract price, i could buy a new phone, switch the numbers, and pay at most $200 fee. So far $400. Then ebay my old evo for circa $200,and that leaves me with a net off contract price of around 200 bucks for a evo 3d, not bad....
somehow i think sprint has thought of this already and has ways to prevent it.
good luck though

well i know i can add another line, sprint will love that
then i know i can cancel my old line, all they can do is charge me the ETF fee, which is only $100 now since im 1 year in. so i'll pay $300 for phone and fees. then sell for 200 ebay leaves me with paying only $100 for a evo 3d and off contract at that.
the only hurdle to leap is sprint easily allowing me to switch my old number to the new evo 3d

Like what? Stop you from adding a new line? Not allowing you to cancel one of your lines? I tried to talk to a rep about upgrading my discount but was unable to do so.
Isn't that awesome of them to change it to $100 more? They must have caught wind that it was we were a little to satisfied or they got greedy with all the pre orders that the false one got and decided HAH! GOT YOU BASTARDS..

Uh....says $499.99 there.
EDIT: Now it says $599
Uhh no it doesn't, Just called sprint and they are doing $499 at my local store.
Huh, now it says $499 again.

Was wrong about Sprint, its $549.00 there. The flyer isn't changing for me at all, weird it does for you. I did call and confirm with RadioShack also for $599.00
Either way, it's $480 at Amazon no tax lol.
It's $599 @ RS. I just came from there talking with the store manager. I was going to buy off contract as well til they upped it. The manager was like, you're better off calling & getting the full upgrade which brings you to $199 and if you cancel, you're still making out. I just got the "complimentary upgrade" from Sprint, so I'm good to go
Just walked into radio shack in the mall (in going to see x men first class) and he said 499..... Hmmm

Whoa, they need to stick with a price, I was told 499.99 when I bought my stupid 50$ gift card at Radioshack to preorder my 3D. I'm still buying it no matter what, but damn...
Screw that , I just ordered from Amazon. With that $50 RS giftcard, Im only $519 in the hole instead of $599. I can deal with that. **** RadioShack

yeah, add a new line $200
transfer currrent number to new evo 3d
then cancel your old line (pay the up to $200 ETF fee)
you'll still come out at least $100 saved rather than paying 599
depending on how far along u are in your plan, you may only have to play between 50 to 100 bucks for the ETF,making your savings up to $350 ,and maybe only paying $250 off contract for new evo, if say you are at 20 months in your 2 year contract

Did this with nextel for years. Thing is when u move/swap the #s ur old will b on the evo3d and the new line on the old evo4g. Now when you cancel the new phone number thats on ur evo4g there is no etf to pay because your within the trial period. So in turn u get it for upgrade price. They never said anything to me with nextel when I did that though times have dirastically changed and who knows...

You guys should be patient. I'm sure Ebay will have a reputable seller selling it at much better prices. Just be patient boys. I'm sure one will score a phone for $400 once the hype dies out.
I just received a text from Sprint where they offered me $150 credit to trade my phone in.

yaaa this is old news. but for 150 i'd rather keep mine.
good for a backup cell since i don't pay for insurance, or as a portable video player with my spare batteries that don't fit in the 3D...
if nothing else you can probably get more $ on craigslist.

Seriously, this is old news and has been covered on way to many threads already here.
It made sense to upgrade my phone. I could not get good battery life with any roms I tried. A friend gave me an email saying to turn in my evo 4g and get a 150 off. I had an upgrade so out the door I paid 49.99 plus tax for the 3D.
People buying the evo 4g phones have slowed way down. Im seeing alot of them for sale week after week for like 200 or less. My buddy is trying to sell his red evo 4g for 225obo and no hits? Id rather trade it in for 150 right off the bat than deal with craigslist people etc. just my .02cents

Despite the lack of respect and the fact that there has been many threads on it, thank you for trying to help.
I know the search function is a bit difficult sometimes, so I can believe that it might not have been easy depending on your choice of words.
Nonetheless, I know you were trying to help, so again thank you.
edit : BTW, in some areas the EVO is being sold for less than $150 on craigslist or other sites. Also, as in my case, there are MANY adds selling the EVO. This is precisely what I did, traded my EVO in for a 3D. Paid $50 out the door and got a free Otterbox commuter cause I referred their hot red-head female tech to these forums to help her learn more. Come to think of it, we should all be thankful I did that.

Looking at those that have closed in the last 2 weeks, I see prices from upper 400's to mid 700's.
This listing here really takes the cake though.

*Raises Hand*
Well I was the Winner of that $740 dollar Evo and I find it to be worth every penny lol. I was off contract with an amazon preorder and canceled it in desperation when we had no date. Believe it or not I actually got it faster and cheaper than off contract at BestBuy which would have come ~$760. My OG Evo crapped out and I was completely phone-less so time was of the essence and I was shooting in the dark.
Tl;DR You know exactly how much I was willing to pay . Winning bidder: Crowordove
Also I think it's the funniest thing ever to be called out for my Evo desperation especially since I'm on XDA and got to be a part of it lol.
Is it really that worthwhile to remain off contract? You're still paying monthly service charges equal to what someone on-contract is paying. Your only benefit is the ability to cancel service at any time. Now if they gave you a year's worth of free service for paying the whole lot up front, that might be worth it.
Thanks for chiming in.
Edit: Not calling you out personally, just trying to get a grasp on how folks justify such purchases. I've heard of people paying exorbitant amounts on other devices - iphones, ipads, etc.

Actually I'm in my 2 year contract coming up on year one here shortly. I'm paying off contract for a phone to use on my current contract. I was an Og Evo buyer a little over a month before the Evo 3d and decided to wait it out and chalk it up to bad luck. So this time I jumped for the new phone instead of a referbed Evo that I would have had to buy out of pocket anyway. The best part about it is I get an upgrade next year if I choose to use it
I think knowing that you can up and leave without penalty is a certain sense of security, in which I also enjoy being locked into a contract. i've been eligible to upgrade both phone lines for over 4 years, and just never had because i never found a phone I liked enough. My main phone was a Sanyo MM9000 (I have lots of them collected) due to it's ability to make calls in other countries without being charged and the data usage not being able to be monitored, etc. I was tethering on that phone for years with no fees, lol. My 2nd line was a Touch Pro which was basically the perfect phone, just too slow. Had they put this proc in it, it would be great!
Anyways, I upgraded both lines at the same time with pre-orders, one came in, they f'd up my order and only had 1 phone ready because they thought it was supposed to be one, then my other came later. The 2nd I already had buyers lined up wanting to pay $650+, but due to the idiots at BB's error, by the time I got my 2nd phone, they were released so now I just have my 2nd phone sitting on craigslist for $500.00 until it sells. And my 2nd line is back on the Touch Pro it was on previously.
First EVO = $200 - $50 pre-order GC with BB - $75 in gift certificates I had, so I paid $75.00 for my HTC EVO 4G LTE
Second EVO = $200 - $50 pre-order GC with BB on my 2nd line. I paid $150 for that one, but once it sells for $500, I will have basically been paid to get one.
This is definitely the best phone out right now. I'm still amazed at how much you can do with it, and I have been experimenting with WEP cracking, lol. Going to see if I can get the right adapters to use my external WiFi antenna with it, then load up BackTrak3 on it. ;-p

~$700 Bestbuy has them listed for that off contract as well as Amazon without the discounts they apply. After Amazons discount they are $550.

I love forum picture fights.
Seriously though it was cost effective for me and I don't expect anyone else to agree with me. My Evo LTE has been and will continue to be worth every penny to me.
Not sure if this has been posted, or even if I can post something like this, but I am upgrade eligible and really wanted a EVO LTE because I liked how the white version looked and the SVDO is also really appealing. I was searching forever for a deal, and really didn't want to even pay $50 the other week at Best Buy and I missed the day where BestBuy.com was selling for free. I came across an old SlickDeals post -
http://slickdeals.net/f/5324082-Sprint-HTC-EVO-4G-LTE-49-99-for-Upgrade-or-New-Line
The post was for a 49.99 deal, but when I clicked on the link, the Sprint site (which is a private store for Valued Sprint Customers) had several select smartphones and the EVO LTE was only .99 and no activation fee or shipping. I was able to order the phone without any troubles and now I have an EVO LTE on its way to me for next to nothing! If anybody else wants to avail themselves of the offer, you can either follow the above link, or I will post brief directions taken from the post here also:
go to http://www.sprint.com/99centoffer
Click on Phones tab, then select the type
That should take you to this website:
http://shop2.sprint.com/NASApp/onli..._Phone_Char&id12=CustomAisleLanding_Promo_PDA
I imagine that at some point Sprint might close this off, but until then I may have to take advantage of it a couple of times for some other people I know with upgrades. Cheers.

i thought this was spam...but i did check it out and youre right. good find!
yea i got mines for that same price too! ..i saw on amazon for 20 bucks..new contract! n everything
Hey OP. Thanks for the post! Just bought my wife another little Christmas gift!
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
ya sprint has had some great deals ..just got one for the wife for free at best buy.. with contract renewal
I paid the $10 4g fee since the og evo. Never got 4g on two lines, so I complained and got a two line contract reset and 200 credit and an evo lte and galaxy s3 free. Try this over the phone with tech help after the third call and remember what you say. Sprint made my day, and it's wonderful having 4g all over chicago (not there yet officially) even in a warehouse basement from the 1910's. 5gb each day and never roaming or throttled, unlimited is the best. But i must say the evo lte is a way better phone, but the samsung has way better reception. Bye HTC loved my last 6 years with you, but back to samsung because i get signal. :crying:
if only I waited a bit longer. oh well. looks like i'll be getting my brothers two evos for their christmas gifts
I just bought the phone for my girlfriend with this link. thanks!!!!
Got mine my wife one for Christmas last week through bestbuy.com ...it was a 24-hour free Evo LTE with contract extension...since I got my evo in July I jumped all over it...gotta keep an eye out for all those deals.
Anyone received there's yet that was ordered this way? Curious. Actually JUST came back from the store after buying one to replace my broken one ($99 upgrade was cheaper than the $150 Asurion deductible), havent activated it yet but need to tonight, wonder if I could return it when this 99-cent one arrives.
Mine was delivered within 48 hours of ordering, but I was also within 30 mins of a UPS warehouse.

Thanks, ordered mine yesterday and currently "awaiting processing at the warehouse".
I hope this is still going Jan 1st when my wife can upgrade. That would save me a lot of $.
$79 with upgrade/ 1¢ new line on Amazon. I'm still considering getting one.
Seems to be valid...

Can you order through this offer if you're on SEROP?
Well, despite having already done the upgrade at the store, activating and extending my contract I still placed an order for this that evening and it came today. Returned the Evo I just paid $150 for to the store, activated the one I paid 99 cents for when I got home without any problems. Of course, returning the one I bought in-store also undoes the contract extension associated with it, we'll see at what point the 99 cent one reinstates the extension. Definitely glad I saw this thread though, definitely saved me money!
Did any of you get this when selecting the phone:

I just ordered mine. I'm really hoping this works. If so, you just saved me money and a phone I was going to trade in to the buyback program. I'll let you guys know.
