Some of them offer trade in too. The Radio Shack by me said you can get up to $100 depending on the phone your trading in.

I agree. I did it but radio shack are bastards to deal with. I had problems with my 3D and now I have a Photon and had issues. They suck to deal with and I'm under my 30 days. They don't wanna do exchanges or returns. I've had to have Sprint call and make them obey policy twice now. Wish I would have just gone to a Sprint store.

Just to be fair, my RadioShack here on Geary Blvd. in San Francisco has given me amazing service, even selling me the 3VO before my upgrade expired so I could if I wanted do a 30 day exchange for the Photon. FYI, according to Sprint, the $99 price point at Radio Shack has nothing to do with them, and will not be honored at Sprint store or online via Sprint.
New Photon Today
I just took up Best Buy Mobile on the $99 deal. I added a new line for my father and gave him my EVO 4G and picked me up a new Photon.
Slingplayer and Logmein are my most used apps.
Still working out the video chatting software. Got QIK running with video, so off to a good start.
Will try out my HDMI cable tonight.

I don't expect Sprint to honor that. My issue is with Radio Shack. I have had two defective devices so far and had problems getiing them exchanged even though they saw the problems and I am under 30 days. Sprint had to step in and make them do what they were supposed to. I live in the midwest though so it's probably completely different where you are.

Their policies are very crooked and there are enough loopholes in all of their warranties that the coverage is voided before you even walk out of the store half of the time. One of the local stores here is currently under investigation for lying about deposit amounts and pocketing the extra cash. They also do everything possible to get out of honoring the Sprint 30 day satisfaction guarantee. If there is so much as a light surface scratch anywhere on the phone, they will deny you a swap or even cancellation. It's pathetic, just don't do it.

They can't do that, it is a Sprint phone with a Sprint contract, they are just the middle man, they cannot do anything to the Sprint contract that says you can exchange your phone if you are not satisfied within 30 days, and you can actually do that 3 times. So really its 90 days. I would literally fight one of them if they didn't do what I asked them. Real talk.

The price change I want to say it's to push the phone to be the marque phone till the Samsung Epic Touch 4G comes out in the next 3 to 4 weeks ...

If you are current Sprint customer, you can call telesales and get price match of RadioShack for $99 (YMMV). You will basically get additional $100 credit of the phone that is $199. My phone is on my way.......
It didnt take them any longer to get the Photon than it did Best Buy or non-corporate Sprint-branded stores. They arent refurbs.
SOME RS's do sell refurbs, its all very plainly stated, and they're pretty reasonable and often without contract so its saved my ass a time or two when out of town and a phone ends up broken.
They're selling at a lower price because NEW activations come with a kickback/monthly that extensions dont. There used to be a few guys that did this exclusively on Ebay, they were a legit official Sprint partner selling phones for virtually nothing on new activations only. I got a PPC6700 or 6800 for basically free when they retailed for 500+ and all I had to do was add a line...which was fine with me since I had $10 Vision and free add-a-phone back when you could get all those things.
anybody have any luck getting it on upgrade for that price??

I have to agree. I called a local radioshack when the Evo 3d came out and was just inquiring about their return policy. I talked to two people there and they said there was no return policy and if you don't like the phone that you are stuck with it unless you want to exchange. I explained that their has to be a 30 return policy of some sort. They both explained that it was not honored if the phone was used at all. Then after pulling my hair out from their stupid statements, I explained no one has such policy. These guys are idiots and the sad part is there were two idiots under the same roof. I thought there was a rule against that. Anyway I called another store and they said there was a return policy but it was only for exchanges.
Price tag
No, Best Buy Mobile , in our local mall , had a $99 price tag on the Photon. Best Buy and Radio Shack aplly the mail in rebates at time of purchase.
The Photon was $106.74 , plus the price of a Zagg shield, out the door.
I also went by Sprint and bought, the dock for the Photon. Great product and well worth the money.

I have called two Radio Shacks about this and not surprisingly they were clueless on the details. From the Radio Shack site:
Trade-in offer good 6/24 - 7/31/2011. $75 offer valid on select smartphones only. To be eligible, the phone must power on, cannot be PIN locked and must be in fully functional, working condition without any broken components, including, but not limited to, cracked display. In addition, the cell phone housing or casing cannot be cracked or broken, and neither the display nor the housing can exhibit any signs of liquid damage: Limit 1 per customer.

My Hero that has been beat to **** actually meets that criteria and I'd take $75 for it in a heartbeat. So...which phones are the "select smartphones" they reference? Is the Hero one of them?
When I called RadioShack, the guy I spoke with said the store has a list of phones 'guaranteed' to get $75 and that it was 'quite a few'. Unfortunately for me, an old HTC Touch Pro2 was not on that list .
I've been wondering the same thing because I would trade it no doubt for $75
if the list has been published, it'd be helpful! I have a htc snap, touch pro, centro, htc vogue that i'd love to get rid of for $75... total
Actually have a Question for you guys, if I take a Samsung Epic today will they traded in for a Gift Card?
The trade in right know is 140 for the Epic 4G... What do you think?
BTW.. The Epic is not in my name, it was a gift but it cannot be activated because the person has not pay the last bill, and the phone shows active.

Radio shack told me that my cdma hero would only get $52 Max from their buyback program. However, the guy seemed to be clueless as it took him 30 minutes to complete 2 Evo 3d preorders.
Can someone please post the $75 list if you have it?
Also, does it mention anything about the trade ins being stock/rooted?
EDIT. Signing up for RS email gets you a $10 off coupon. Maybe/maybe not work for Evo 3d as it says "May not be valid on certain other discounts." Whatever that means... worth a shot, I guess.
2.3.4 on a Hero? Yup
I just checked out my local RadioShack on 3rd Avenue in New York City and they had the list of cell phones that qualified for the $75 credit. Unfortunately the HTC Hero was not listed
See attached picture for the complete list posted at this RadioShack.
What a scam! $75 is theft for most of those phones!
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA Premium App
Sprint has their own buyback program that you can use as a credit toward you account. They are currently offering $150 for the original EVO! I'm using that and my $45 "stay with us" credit they just gave me on top of my upgrade...which will land me the 3D for $5! Check Sprint's buyback program and see how much they will give you for your phones: https://secure2.sprintbuyback.com/consumer/
They also accept phones from other carriers...

Better than nothing...and probably better than what anybody would give you for that phone! Hahaha! I paid $450 for the EVO on launch day because I bought the Hero on it's launch day with my upgrade and wasn't eligible for an upgrade in June when the EVO launched...I couldn't stand one more moment with the Hero! Sprint gave me $80 for it a year ago...win-win if you ask me!

I've moved on from T-Mobile to Sprint.
I got the Evo 3d. I have never ordered a phone this way. Usually its only through carrier or in store.
But I figured Id try wirefly.
No deposit.
Went well.
But I have silly worries because im anticipating this phone so much.
Anyone that has used them before?

I've used them a couple of times, and had no problems. Nothing to worry about. I decided to go the Radio Shack route, but that's because I want to make sure I have it at 9am when they open.
just wished you'd of posted that you were looking to get the phone before jumping on wirefly tho
http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Wirefly
They have a pretty good reseller rating over the last 6 months, but it looks like their customer service is crap.
I had a problem getting my HTC Hero from them (although it was back in '09?). I called, answered all information (literally took like 2 hours), and the sales rep continued to try to sell me accessories even though I had said no countless times. Then, the next day, they tell me to email them my SSN for security because Sprint rejected the upgrade or something. I cancelled and ordered straight from Sprint.

I ordered my wife's Epic from them for $149.99 ($100 less then the Sprint stores launch price) and was very happy with the customer service and fast delivery time. Although as someone above stated they did try to push accessories and insurance on me, no big deal, I just turned them down.
I ordered my EVO 3D from them about two weeks ago for $149.99 with no shipping or tax (of which Sprint charges the full retail price of the phone for), so that was a huge savings. I was concerned about shipping times but after a recent call to them I was told it would be shipped on the release date of the 24th, and I should have it in 2 business days.
I will let you know how it went after I get my phone, but right now I feel pretty comfortable buying from Wirefly.
Don't know if anyone saw, but the "HTC Store" is taking pre-orders too.
http://shopamerica.htc.com/cell-phones/productdetail.htm?prId=39065
I just noticed it today. I was hoping to find accessories, but stumbled upon this instead.
So this is what I found out about wirefly. They were great. Great service. But one thing. I was robbed of my shipping fee.
How you say?
I paid 7.99 for 2day buisness. A couple different reps told me the phone should arrive friday.
It will not be here till Monday. Fedex is taking its sweet time.
It makes no since to pay that damn 2buisness day if you know damn well you wont make release.
I mean unless wirefly had it to me on friday. they should have told me it would make no difference with how they ship and saved me the 7.99.
Yes 179 is nice for the phone. But you add 8 bucks and 188. Or 199 and have it friday.
So in my view if you are intrested in which way to go. Just go to sprint. Or a walk in dealer.

Yes, yes it is.
So I'm a little confused about the whole trade in price of the original Evo 4G. According to the ad is states that they are giving $100 toward the purchase of the Evo 3d, but on Radio Shack's website the trade in value for an Evo in excellent condition is $158. If anyone that works for Radio Shack could answer this it would be greatly appreciated. I was actually thinking about trading in my Evo tomorrow to see what the value would be.

I just called my radio shack. They will only do the $100. I told them the site says $158. They said they can't price match it when it comes to the 3d purchase because it has come from corporate. So maybe trade in for a different phone. Return it after 15 seconds and get the 3d? Me, I'm just going to sprint first thing in the am and if they have stock I'll just get it there and use my RS gift card for accessories.
Not much use in a RS thread,but my local sprint store is giving 150... and I don't even have to unroot. Keep the SD card and charger... just hand over the phone
NO NO NO NO!!!! guys! i worked at the shack and now dont lol. SO! heres what you do! You trade in your EVO for the regular trade in price of 158, you DO NOT trade it in towards your evo3d that will only get you your 100 trade in.... so go in and say hey i wanna trade in this phone, it should still be 158 till at least thursday or friday then im sure it will plummet, i traded mine in for the 158 and then used 50 of the trade in to preorder it =) soooo theres your insider tip!
Did just that at the Sprint store today. Gave them my rooted OG Evo for a $150 credit. Kept sd card and charger. No issues at all.

RS sales associate here. We got a notification from corporate yesterday saying that if the traded in phone is worth more with a normal trade in, the higher price will be honored. The $100 is basically for phones that have damage to the point where the traded in value will be below $100 (same goes for the $75 deal too). If your evo is in good enough condition, the $158 trade in value will be honored.

Well I just went to a Sprint store to pre-order my 3d and two different reps had mentioned to me that I should turn my phone in today as they are unsure the $150 price will stick tomorrow on trade-in. So i'm going back after work to turn it in. Cause well they wouldn't say that if wasn't going to happen and I would rather get the $150 instead who knows. Used to work at the Sprint HQ for years.
I just went into my local sprint store (southgate shopping center, colorado springs) they still had plenty for people to preorder. If you are nervous about getting one just call up your local store, chances are most people went to best buy or radio shack.

also, if anyone didnt know yet sprint is still offering $125 service credit for porting your number over. Even better reason to ditch tmobile...
When the Evo was released there was such a rush that it brought down the activation system for awhile. It's been speculated that the demand for this phone isn't as much as the OG Evo but be mindful none the less.
The East coast stores will be in full swing by the time it becomes your turn in the mid west, so allow yourself some time.... Enjoy.

I dont think enough people know about that. With that discount and a giftcard that I get for signing up for service through my work website, I will be making money off getting this phone $100 gift card + $125 service credit+ selling my tmobile G2 which is in great shape will net me a bit of profit.
the original evo was in very high demand because it was actually one of the only phones available with the specs it had. No other carriers even had anything close to it. Now almost every carrier has 4.3 inch screen and well spec phones. Normal person really doesn't even know anything about processors, like bunch of my friends. They always ask me what phone they should get. mostly people go for screen size and android, ram processor is the last thing they care about, all they know is the 2ghz is faster then 1ghz.

yep doing the same thing. seems like not a lot of people know about the credit... I wonder if they apply it if you don't even ask for it. $125 off the phone plus selling my galaxy s = a profit for getting this phone!
Sprint still has tons for online sales.As my thread made awhile back there is no shortage of ev3d.
I ordered another today with the sprint premier link and had to call in to validate and the guy said it would have no problem going out today.And they had many leftover from the SP pre sale so online or sprint store either of them will have plenty.
Just saw that thread (it was on page 13 so forgive me for missing it)

I kept telling myself to just be happy with what I had but, low and behold the phone comes out today and ofcourse I have to have it.
So I call up my local AT&T and ask to comfirm the price off contract was $650 and if they had any in stock. The employee informs me that yes they are in stock, but I will not be able to purchase it off contract. For a second Im lost in dissapointment, then the employee says why would you want to buy it off contract anyway when you can do an early upgrade and just pay $550. Say what! So I hop in my Toyota Matrix and fly ( seriously going about 90 mph) to the store.
I get to the store and let them know I had just called to buy the Note and the manager and an employee start helping me. The employee goes into my account and clearly im not early upgrade eligible, but the manager says its fine Ill just do an overide. So while the manager is doing the overide the employee starts telling about the jawbone speaker that they have been pushing for awhile. It cost $199 so im just listening not be rude, but decline her offer. Then the Manager says how about if I through the Speaker in for free since your already paying $549 for the phone ( ok now we are talking), I happily accept this offer.
I know my story is a bit long but I am always hearing about how terrible AT&T is so I just wanted to send a little positivity there way.
With the case, screen cover, and Tax I ended up paying $649 total. I plan on selling my skyroket for $400 so ill only end up being out $249 dollars. Im going to try out the speaker if I dont like it ill probally sell it for $150 then Ill only be out $100.
Congratz man! :-D
Just something to think about though, a lot of us got the Note before our upgrades were eligible, including me, for $300. There's a thread floating around here somewhere about people who were only like 2 months into their contract and got it for $300.

Well further examination of my receipt I can tell I was offered the Jawbone box because they price of the the Note was discounted to 299, so i guess the Manager was just trying to recup the difference. But I am still happy and I guess I could just go to another store and return the Jawbone because I was charged full price for it on the receipt.

ATT is great?? You just wait!
I'll admit I've had some really good experiences with ATT in-store customer experience.
But over time, they just keep changing the plans and increasing the prices. It's been 8 years since I switched from VZN to ATT so I could have the "freedom" to be one of the first to buy unlocked GSM phones from overseas and not have to wait for phones to be "provisioned" (ala Sprint and VZN).
...but over time, what used to cost me about $250/mo. for 6 phones is now costing me $400/mo with 2GB data limits!
Even when I threaten ATT that I'm leaving, they seem to mysteriously find discounts and savings I qualify for to lower my bill. Can't complain about that too much I guess...
Yeah i think im going to return the Jawbone speaker tommorow and get my 199 back. Im going to a different store to return it course.
