Your within your warranty period, take it back for price adjustment. If they *****, return for full refund, drive 4 blocks up the road and buy a brand new one for $9.99.

Lol, you act as if I don't have a pair. I just found that it was going for $9.99 and the store kind of isn't open at almost midnight . I planned on calling them in the morning but wanted to see what others had to say.

I got my new phone early last week, saw it on sale this week, called Customer Service and they gave me a $90 credit on my account. I'm sure they'll do the same for you.

Alright fellas, since I have already got 12 of the TP's I will give you all a giant tip. There is one store that has at least 3 in every store I've been too. The price is higher but the do price match and come with a carrying case which best buy TP's don't. Head to your local Aaron's Sales and Lease. Do not tip them off that you want to buy all their stock if you call to check on quantity otherwise they will just say they have one. Aaron's typically will lease these out at $50.00 per month for a year and they like to make money just as much as the next Joe. I personally made the mistake at the first store but learned my lesson after this.
Please do not ruin this for everyone by calling every Aaron's store and telling them you will buy "their stock" and tell them the price drop over the phone as they are oblivious to it at this point. Once the employee learns of the drop in price they will magically end up reserved when in reality they will buy them and sell them. I want to see my awesome devs here on the Evo 3d forums get them before others, hence the post in these forums and not the HP Touchpad forums.
Good luck, and once again call and ask if they have "1" in stock. Drive, walk, fly, and or skip to the store, but do not ask total stock until you are in the store and ask them to price match Best Buy or you will fail (i experienced this in the first store).
My local Aaron's only had 1 in stock and it was used and heading back to a "shop" to get it fixed.
Almost.
Called and they had some coming in but retailed at $899. I assume they price match? Because that is ridiculous. Went ahead and put my name down and figured it is worth a shot at this point.
Unless you are in a small town there should be plenty of stores. I just realized also stores similar to aarons like rent a center may carry them also. It's worth a look.

Sorry this is a dumb question, I called my local Aarons and they have some, so I'm going to head up there when I get a chance to get away from my desk, but I'm confused at how this place works. They charge you monthly if you wanna rent-to-own, but can you buy them flat-out too and they'll price match? So I should be able to bring in a print-out from best buy or hp.com and I'll be able to walk out with one at $149 or $99?
I just called and placed one on hold for tomorrow. Aarons is a rent to own store, correct? They will just let you buy one outright for 99.99? Will they price match even if best buy is out of stock? I always thought they would have to at least be available for the competitor to price match.

I found some stores by me that have stock. Some of them are in more "rural" areas and lemme tell you, those people are a fack ton nicer and polite that the dikheads in blue at worstbuy. Very helpful. They def have no idea whats gong on with the fire sale. They said they were out but unloading a truck as we speak and 6 are on it. They are even holding some for me! Hopefully it goes through. The toughest part is going to be price matching. Here are links to online retailers sites if anyone is interested..... (I'm not trying to sell or solicit anything with these links MODS, just posting them as leverage for fellow XDA'ers to use in price matching, no banwagon plox)

Looks like I have a very slim shot the guy from Aaron's says he is getting one in tomorrow. Took my name said he would call then it shows up. He said they would price match. Sounds too good to be true.

I just got my rezound from Amazon wireless. I love the phone however I.have the light leakage and its already overheating. Do I.need to send it into Amazon or can I return it at a local Verizon store? I I've read both circumstances happening. Just wondering if anyone else has done either yet. Also if u send it in can u get a loner? This is my first Verizon phone. Thanks
I think you have to use amazon for the first 30 days then you can use verizon. It may be worth it to put up with it until verizon can help you.

Any way to confirm this. I suppose I can call tomorrow.I'm.stuck in class right now. If that's the case ill def wait the 30 days
I got both a Rezound and RAZR from Amazon. The Rezound is great, but I had some serious issues with the RAZR overheating and searching for signal. Called Amazon, they shipped me a brand new phone. Swapped SIMs, mailed the old phone back. Problem solved, and it didn't cost me a dime. Think shipping was 2nd day air.
EDIT: I also tried VZW first, because it would have been quicker, but they directed me to Amazon.
So they send one first... Have the replacement phones been without flaw or is it the same gamble. Might be better to wait the 30 days and use Verizon so I can check it...

Amazon is excellent for returns/exchanges hands down. I assume it will be the same process you request an exchange and they ship it out to you. They generally gave me overnight shipping for free (even on a saturday) to get me non-defective item. Then you just ship it back to them within a resonable time frame with the included label and you should be good to go.
You guys do realize Amazon will send you a brand new phone and if you wait 30 days Verizon cannot swap in store and will send you a refurbished phone thru the mail.

Verizon has a 14 day policy normally, but now if you purchased the phone after 11-15 you have until Jan.
Wouldn't the phone have a warranty through htc as well? Sounds like ill be contacting Amazon tomorrow though. Thanks a lot guys. Hopefully that one doesn't have the light leak. Lol watch me have a new problem. Is rather have the leak than pink buttons and all the other problems I hear about...

I'd be willing to bet that it was a CSA who probably doesn't understand what light leakage is. Between my 3 rezounds and everyone I have looked at in the stores you can see the LEDs through the bottom of the screen when the soft keys light up which is what is causing the bleeding. There is no way to fix it except by turning off the LEDs or by lowering their intensity to improve on the light leak.

Went into verizon and they won't take the phone tho it sounds like I may as well deal with it. They really pissed me off though. I wanted to put on my work discount. Supposed to be 22% line 20% data. I called and reviewed online before I got verizon and the rep told me I would get the discounts. The store wouldn't discount my data because he claimed I need to have a 5gb data and hotspot plan. I was never told this and most likely wouldn't have canceled at&t during the penny sale. Anyone think I could complain enough to get this changed?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Take it back and get a new one. They either sold you a floor model or one that has been opened by the guys in back. Of course once you're out the door they could say it was you that did all those things...are there any photos of people in the BB stock room or anything that are obvious? Or demand a discount since you got a used item. I would be furious if I paid full price for something that other people had been pawing at for who knows how long.
Also, after this is resolved, if you're still using the same device, hard-reset it and start fresh. Who knows what free apps and malware may be installed on it. Obviously don't do that first or you'll destroy the evidence that the phone was used.
I looked at the photo details and they're from February. I didn't buy the phone until march 10.
Only thing keeping me from taking it back is i dinto want to simply unlock it again.

I'm sure they'll exchange it for you, but if you don't want to unlock it, you could (depending on how much of a negotiator you are) go back and see if they'll knock a few bucks back to you... Clearly the phone was either a demo or used in some way, even if briefly. Keep the photos on there if you want to prove it was as you say.

Time I could have spent buying another case. And now he decides to put it back up on here? Wow... You can buy this for much cheaper on ebay brand new anyways. I would avoid this guy.

He has been known to do this. He had his rezound sold to someone and the guy said he was waiting for the tracking. He then offers his rezound for my old Droid 4 and when I found this out, I backed out and then suddenly he shipped out the Rezound to the guy smh not trusted
