I bought one one recently and I love it!!
I didn't want to buy a new phone, but my P4000 was stolen.
picked one up from best buy over boxing day after returning a BB storm which totally sucks
grabbed one last week, paid full no contract for it, but still think it was worth every penny, it's a great phone
I bought one 2 days ago. Just wish there were more roms and kitchens for it. ;-)
Just replaced my Touch Diamond with the TD Pro... exxxtremely happy. The Keyboard is a big refreshment - the size is no big deal. What is really nice is not having to try and scribe out stuff with TouchPal on screen keyboard. I still use TouchPal when I just need to scribe something quickly but there is nothing quite as nice as a keyboard to depend on.
Anyone know if BB is doing a buyback program for the original EVO? Couldn't find anything about it on their website.
I would like to know as well.
I went in there 2 days ago and they basically offered me $130 for mine. No scratches, dings or anything. And im going to guess the price will probably be lower next week.
If you got it at best buy and you are trading in at the same store then they will take it....at least that is what they said at the time I pre-ordered. Other wise I think you need to use their website to do the trade in. They have a calculator on there to tell you how much they will offer.

Of course you can go into most best buys and get 4 different stories depending on who you talk too there....so your best bet is to just call them and ask.
Quote from their site:
"Products purchased at Best Buy
Video games, iPods, Zunes, laptops, flat-panel televisions and mobile phones can be taken to any Best Buy Store where, if you don't have your receipt, we will do our best to retrieve it for you and complete the trade-in, or you can use our online program."
Hello,
Best Buy does offer a Trade In, but it is 130 Dollars Store Credit (just started about 2 Months ago) or they can send a Check that is well under 100 Dollars. Now that the Sprint Stores no longer are doing the Mail In Rebates and offering 150 Dollars Trade In, I really do not see an advantage anymore in buying from Best Buy. Especially if you are planning on Trading In an EVO 4G
Cheers,
JJ

Unless youre buying off contract.. in which case Sprint stores are useless since theyll only sell them to people with upgrades and new lines.

ok, as long as ur using them. lol
The people that tick me off are the price gougers .lol
I got 6 during the firesale: 5 $99/16GB on Amazon at 2am the night it was announced (paid full price then the Monday after the firesale weekend I called and Amazon reimbursed me the difference), and 1 [email protected] (was worried that the amazon 'idea' to pay full price and get refunded the difference wouldn't work.
1 for me, 1 for the wife, 1 in the event I bricked mine putting android on it, then 3 for friends who love them.
Got 5 more off of CL for ~150 ea. for 16GBs, for friends and family.
I got mine on Oct 16 for $259.99 with $50 rebate (yet to be received). Tomorrow only sale at TMO for all their phones. Amaze $199.99 - $150 MIR = $49.99..
"tmonews.com/2011/11/smartphone-tablet-price-breakdown-for-magenta-saturday-sale/" (add the hypertext transfer protocol colon slash slash dub dub dub dot at the beginning -I can't post urls yet!)
Wished you had waited to get yours? I personally don't have regrets for getting it last month - it's a great smartphone.
Hope this helps someone who's been sitting on the fence for a purchase...
I have one already and I paid full price no contract... This is very tempting to get another for the wifey....

This is a deal only with a new contract under the "Value" plan.
You basically put down 199.99 for the phone get 150 MIR
and then pay 20 dollars a month for 20 months.
Bringing the total to 450 for the phone. The deal comes from the MIR.
But like I said, requires new contract under the value plan.
I think it's cheaper to get it through a classic plan but you end up paying more for the length of the contract.
Haven't crunched all the numbers myself, but there you have it.
And I am getting this deal tomorrow.
It is actually a very good deal.
Under a 2 line family plan, this deal with a value plan would save you about $600 over a 2 year period versus the classic plan.
Classic plan
$140 x 24 months
$260 x 2 phones
=$3,880
value plan
$100 x 24 months
$50 x 2 phones
$20 monthly payment per phone x 2 phones x 20 months
= $3,300
But it isn't really a deal for the phone because you're paying 450 for the phone, people might misinterpret and think it's 50 only

Well his math is right. I worked it out myself and you save 290 per line.
So grand total you save 580.
It's a good deal in the long run even if you THINK you pay more for the phone
you pay less in the long run.
Anyway I picked up this deal today, no regrets.
My parents were able to get the Amaze for 199 with the value plan. The phone was 599 and they received a 250 discount with the 150 mail in rebate but they had to sign up on the 59.99 value plan. There are no activation fees or monthly equipment installments. At the end of the day, I think that was the best deal I had seen on the Amaze yet.
I am on month 16 of 24 so I could not take advantage of this but I would have!

Nice find! I didn't know amazon had a wireless thing lol
Amazon has had some amazing deals on phones of late. at one point they had almost every single smartphone except the iPhone for just a penny. of course, this was on a new 2 year, but still some smoking deals to be had.
I just got my Amaze through retentions for around $50 I think. not sure exactly, they said it will be $81 or so out of pocket, including taxes and shipping. this was after a $250 credit. all in all, not bad since I still had 5 months on my existing contract.
Amazon Upgrade
I think one thing I noticed about Amazon Wireless is that the plans that they offer for Tmobile are different than the plans Tmo Stores can offer.
Maybe it's just me but when I go through the checkout process on Amazon they are very limited in their options.

Great Deal! I didn't even consider going through retentions But, then again, I've no complaints with the phone so far.

For those who live in the Miami, FL area you can get your Amaze for only $99.98 with a mail in rebate for $50 so that leaves you with an amaze for only $49.98. This is for new contracts or eligible upgrades on Classic Plans...
I got mine yesterday. Saw the ad online and rushed over to store hoping it was true.
Paid only $106.98 with taxes and got to mail in my rebate to get the $50 back...
Can't beat that with a bat................
I think the value plans are a better value. You don't have to spread the payments over 20 months. Pay it off sooner.

The classic plans are typically $10 to $20 higher than the value plan per month. If the difference is $10 per month, you're paying $250 (approx) more for the same service and $50 for the phone. If you could buy the phone on the value plan for less then $300, you'd be ahead of the game but that's still only a few bucks a month in savings. I think you did pretty well.
They are 20.00 lower per line. None are 10.00 lower. That works out to be 480.00 on a 2 year contract. The deal they had on the 19 works out cheaper than taking the classic plan.
