I have evo's for sale in my sprint store.

I see so many people still saying they are unable to get the evo's they want so I am posting this thread to try to help. I work for a sprint store and I have plenty of EVO's on hand. If you need one or more I am able to ship them to you usually within 2 days. If you'd like more information let me know.

Will xda get a share of the commissions?

Give the guy a break, he's trying to help out people on here. Let him make his commissions...xda is doing just find I'm sure.

Seems kinda fishy... 1st post... and what Sprint store employee is going to post on a forum soliciting buyers for a phone that's proven very difficult to keep in stock?
Not saying it isn't true, just saying... beware.

Yep, he's doing members here a favor by giving them the heads up. That's helpful enough to the XDA community.

Thank you. I've already found Evo's for me and one brother, but my other brother is trying to find one and I would love a BB, or Sprint employee to tell me they just got some in locally so I can tell him to run over there.

The real help would be to post the store location and phone number so members could call and speak to him legitimately or go there if local.

Here ya go if you need to see that this isnt something fishy. Here is my number 928-458-5286 store number is 928-771-0662 also if you go to ppc geeks and look in the threads my store has already helped people pick up the phone. Of course they have to be able to upgrade or something unless they would like to pick it up for retail price and being able to bill to your acct is the prefered method. We pay shipping also so you dont have to pay shipping prices.

Very good, thank you for clearing up the concern. I'm sure it'll help someone... I've already got mine. Everyone else, FYI, this store is located at: 1046 Willow Creek Rd Ste 111 Prescott, AZ

Will you sell the phone for $200 shipped? I don't want to deal with the MIR. You could credit our sprint account $100 and send in the MIR as a batch from the store.

I was told I couldn't buy from sprint without using my upgrade, can you sell me one at retail and get it activated without me using my upgrade?

Any store that told you thought is simply holding the phone for an upgrade or new activation since they make a commission on it. It's not a Sprint policy.

For sure?!? What a scam!
Let me know if I can do this

Unfortunatly we are unable in the store to waive the MIR so we would have to charge it. Sorry , and to your bright eyed question we can always sell a phone upgrade no upgrade no matter what just remember though the retail price of an evo with no discounts is $450 before tax. Just to warn you.

I'm fully aware of the $450. I am not eligible for my full upgrade for quite some time and I am trading web design work to a friend, in exchange part of his payment will be an Evo out of contract and then I will still get my upgrade later. This will work right?
Is there any other way of payment since he is going to purchase it for me?

any luck with him?

I'd be very interested in setting up a new Sprint account and acquiring the Evo from you for the usual $199 with 2-yr contract. Do you ship to Hawaii? And is there the usual 30-day trial period, in which I could return it to a local store if need be?

How's about telling us when the Samsung Epic4G will drop?

Letstalk shipping status...

Just thought the Letstalk crowd could use one of these since the Wirefly folks have one and don't seem happy about sharing that thread.
Also, about to complete an order with Letstalk, if anyone wants $25 off I can try to add you as a friend referral during check out. PM me if interested.

Ordered mine Monday from Letstalk. My status still says its awaiting carrier approval.

Ordered mines on Tuesday and it says the same thing.

Ditto...
I called cause I was getting Jealous of the shipping status on Wirefly. Rep said it says that because the phone is not technically out yet. She said it will probably ship Freaking Monday and I will get it Tuesday. Since overnight shipping does not work on the weekends

Ordered monday night, had to call in to verify CC info and was told phones should be in sometime Thursday and will ship Friday.
The rep said this was not concrete so things may change.
My order shows Ready for Fulfillment, and Carrier Approval on the second status.

I cancelled my order with them...I used a referall and got $25 off making my wirefly order $125. I then went on chat and requested free overnight and they did it. I placed the order at 1pm on Wednesday, 9/14 and 3 hours later at 4pm it showed shipped. They are actually going out tomm, so I'll have it by friday
you have to ask the chat reps to "expedite your order by forwarding your account to the activation team" they will do it and next thing you know, your status is literally changing through the steps every 15 mins....they are quick!
I have a corp account which doesn't have activation fees, so I'm good. In my entire history with sprint, i've never had a single activation fee. it all depends on which corp discount you have
if you want to still place a order and want $25 off, just use my link and we'll both save that amount.

Well, at this rate 1am eastern thurs. If anyone were to change over to wirefly now, do you think they'd still ship it out thurs? They'ed probably end up going out on Friday at this point, no?

the main thing is you have to keep pestering them every step of the way....their status updates are deadly accurate....
i had to call in twice since it said so and as soon as I hung up, it went back to normal. Something about a mismatch with my pin. and verify my address
so keep a look out on your status ...they are really quick about it seems....
i think the main ting is to get them to give u free overnight and it will bump you
i honestly had 3 orders placed....letstalk, amazon, and now wirefly. They don't activate your account or touch your upgrade till they actually open the box to program your phone and when one does it first, others can't do it. I still cancelled both orders though
with the $$, it only places a hold on your credit card, not actually charging it till shipping. so no mess to clean up.

after that, go to another rep and ask them to expedite you

If you pull this off please let us know. Just seems kind of late in the process for them to get ship it out to you before friday. If it was still 1pm 9/14 I'd say go for it, but 1:30am 9/15...
Do regular people (non-corporate account holders) get free activation at wirefly?

I was about too until I realized it would be 150 upfront and like 30days later u get the 25back. Smh I would want to buy a converter right now with that 25bucks lol.
Also my car payment is due this friday, My check wont go through with all these pending statuses lol.

Did you at least get the $25 off referral from Letstalk?

Just called about my order that was placed on monday. She said her supervisor told her they wouldn't be getting the phone in until friday and if they got them early enough, they would go out that day. Thus making the earliest I would see it, would be monday. I got nosey and asked how many orders they had so I could find out if it may go straight to backorder. She said at this point they only had about 100 orders for the phone and they had way more than that coming in. I know this may conflict with what others have been told, but that was the story that I got.

I hope this is the case. Some of their reps seem really dodgy to me, like they really hate their jobs.

Even if LetsTalk takes an extra week to ship, I don't mind, as I only payed $80 for this superphone. Sure I'd be disappointed, but still an amazing deal.

^Agreed^ but as with most all my purchases I want immediate gratification.

I agree, getting my upgrade for 123.99 with free overnight shipping, waived activation, and no tax is totally worth the wait.

Get $25 off at Letstalk.com with refer a friend...

Just to get this out up front, this isn't my original idea. Many others have offered this in several of the threads. I just thought we as a community could take advantage of this offer and help one another, hopefully this continues on to help as many as we have here.
I have 5 open slots to refer you to get $25 off your phone order at Letstalk.com. This also gives me $25 off my next purchase from them as well. Going to bed soon, but I will be up and at it again first thing in the morning in case I don't get the five tonight.
Also, when I ordered, I was still able to get 20% off with the code take20back at checkout. Edit: I have been told and as Dulanic pointed out below, the 20% and the
$ 25 can't be combined.
P.S. Please only send me a PM if you are FOR SURE going to purchase a phone. When I get to 5 I will edit this post and hopefully other members will continue below.

Keep in mind this will not stack with other discounts. It won't work with the 20% and it kills the free activation.

Wait what? How does it kill the free activation?!

I noticed the "promotion" wasn't listed and when I contacted them they confirmed. In addition the 20% off won't stack.

Hmm.. there is no activation charge listed on my order page. Damnit, now I'll have to call these clowns to see what the deal is. Wonder if they'll let me switch to take20back without having to cancel and reorder.

This isn't a deal if it kills the free activation. Assuming Sprint did actually raise it to 36 dollars.

If I was misinformed let me know. However, they don't charge you the activation, Sprint does and then it gets refunded per the promo. However, if you go without the referral you will see the "promotion" listed in the cart. Either way, it won't let you add take20back with the referral so it kind of doesn't matter since 20% is more.
Edit: Just noticed take20back is now expired... screw that.

Please let us know what you find out. The free activation deal just started monday. That's why I went ahead and ordered from them. At this time all I can say is put it in your cart and see what you come up with for your total.

[Q] AT&T Preorder Problems?

Thought I might ask here, am I the only person not able to order this phone? After two days, and hours on the phone, whenever I place my pre-order, I get a confirmation email...and then seconds later, I get a cancellation email. You can't pre-order this over the phone or in stores...is there some special number I don't know about, to call and get this issue resolved? I've literally had an AT&T service rep tell me that they will just continue to cancel my order, and I'm out of luck.
I've thought about trying with bestbuy, but I have unlimited data, and Bestbuy (online) doesn't give an option to upgrade to the unlimited LTE add on.

I had the same problem Oct 25, as I was ordering 2 Notes, one full price and one for my wife with 2 year renewal. I also spent an hour on the phone, ATT couldn't figure it out. I finally thouhgt I would order one at a time. First I ordered the full price Note and received a confirmation email, then I ordered my wife's with discount for the 2 year contracrt, again confirmation. This time, it worked, so both ordered and confirmed for 11/6 ship date. Now if you were ordering only one, no idea, but finally worked for me by ordering only one at a time.

Yeah, I'm only ordering one. And I'm not going to risk being charged 700 dollars, when I'm trying to upgrade at the discount price. I see a few other people have had the same problem, but there aren't any solutions posted. Unfortunately, ATT just says to wait and buy it in a store, which isn't an option for me. Long story short, it's a gift and the person buying it is half a country away. And it's bs that I'd have to wait even longer, due to their crappy system haha.

Really makes no sense and I agree with you. Why did I have to split my order to get both, ATT didn't even know.
Good luck.

Having a lot of problems getting the phone as well. Tried to pre-order it online only to have it either give me an error, or give me a *$399* price instead of $299. On-the-phone reps had no clue, told me I could go to a store to preorder it. Store had no clue, said there's nothing in their system about it. "We won't sell out, just come in on the 9th and get it here." URGH. Such a giant waste of time.

Reps told me to come in as well. I asked if they thought there would be a line guy said usually not for samsung. I asked what time they opened he said 9 I said ill be here at 8.

You'd be doing whats called an alternate upgrade. Basically upgrading your dads line to the note 2 then putting his original phone back on his line and putting the equipment on your line (note 2) if his old phone did not need data before it won't add data. I do these at least once a day with no complications. It's incredibly easy and done more often than regular upgrades are. And you shouldn't have to call and cancel anything. Just have the associate doing the upgrade make sure and show you that your dads original equipment has been returned to his line.

I wish the employees at my lo Al vest buy could figure out how to do an alternate upgrade. I tried to do one last month on my wife's line and none of them could figure it out. I just took the phone to an att store after I left best buy to get it taken care of.

You might have an incompatible rate plan code. Apparently I had an old rate plan with an old code that the instant savings discount didn't recognize. I got all of this info from someone on AT&T live chat. They told me to call Premier and tell them to update the code and that they'll know what I'm talking about. 5 minutes later I was able to get the $100 discount and my preorder was in.

Dumb s? Really now...look at your own GD website. It doesn't give the option to upgrade to unlimited LTE, it just gives the option to not CHANGE anything. It does not clarify if that will upgrade to the unlimited LTE add on.
Look at your own site before *****ing. No wonder no one takes Best Buy seriously lol...
As for everyone else, I got a higher tier customer service, and they can't figure it out. It's basically FUBAR'd. In more detail, they said that the order isn't even making it through. That they, for some reason, don't believe I'm me. So I'll have to take care of it through a bit more complicated way.
Good luck for anyone else trying to order from ATT. I went on their forums, and I'm not the only one dealing with this hassle lol.

This pre-order has just been a nightmare. I couldn't even get to ordering it as the site just gave me an error. Customer service told me to do it at a store, store told me they don't even have it in their system to pre-order it. What's the point of a pre-order that doesn't work?

Heh, just got off the phone with support. We tried two different credit cards, both are empty not used very often, and it denied both then locked the account. She said I'd have to go to a store to show two forms of id to unlock the account. Yea, their system is ****ed up.

Preordering is a major waste of time. Yet another advantage of not being a iPhone user is not having to order early just to try and get it delivered day 1.
I can see certain situations where you might want to buy online and have it delivered to someone half a country away as a gift, but on the whole there is no incentive to do it.
The phones will be in stock unless their delivery didn't arrive on time. As great a phone as the Notes are, they are still in a fairly niche market. Not many people like the idea of this massive phone. People still freak out when they see me pull my phone out. My buddies will give me even more crap with the bigger screen when I get mine in a few days.
Best Buy handles everything very quickly. If you have a standalone Best Buy Mobile location near you, go there. My experience has always been better there, but that's just my experience. Less lines, less crowded.

Preordering is a major waste of time. Yet another advantage of not being a iPhone user is not having to order early just to try and get it delivered day 1.
I can see certain situations where you might want to buy online and have it delivered to someone half a country away as a gift, but on the whole there is no incentive to do it.
The phones will be in stock unless their delivery didn't arrive on time. As great a phone as the Notes are, they are still in a fairly niche market. Not many people like the idea of this massive phone. People still freak out when they see me pull my phone out. My buddies will give me even more crap with the bigger screen when I get mine in a few days.
Best Buy handles everything very quickly. If you have a standalone Best Buy Mobile location near you, go there. My experience has always been better there, but that's just my experience. Less lines, less crowded.

That reminds me. I need to call geek squad again. They've been double charging my card for my protection plan every other month or so. I think this will be call number 9 to get them to fix it, again... :silly: Started when my OG Droid's touch screen died, and verizon wouldn't do anything to help me out, so I ditched them and went back to at&t. Got the Dell Streak because the Atrix wasn't out yet. 29 days later the Atrix dropped, so I swapped over to that. They "canceled" the protection plan and started it up on the new phone, but the Streak plan is haunting my account. It just won't go away. The geeks at BB can't do anything, I always have to call their customer support.

Same here and when I call to find out what is going on, I get read from some script because they have no idea why. I guess I'll just go on launch day and hopefully pick one up

$239.99 @ Costco

Costco has a huge display of these watches and their $10 off normal retail. Going to check my receipt to see if I'm within my return/price match window.

Nice. Do they have the stainless steel version ?

I only saw black. But you should be able to get bby to price match.

I literally just saw this post. I'm going to my local costco now hoping they are still on sale. I got my watch used for $240...

QUICK UPDATE!!! ATTENTION!!!
BBY has changed their price match policy starting 11/1 of this month for all purchases to be eligible for return by 1/31/15. You can call them and ask for an adjustment (they can look you up in their system). Make sure you call the store that you purchased it from. I just had my watch price-matched and am getting $10.67 back.
TOTALLY worth the effort.
FYI - I purchased my watch on 10/16 and it went through. So give it a try, especially if you're within your initial 30 days. The above is Costco's current price and not a BF price (which BBY won't honor).

Just got back from my store and not a single smart watch to be found anywhere :/

these were over by the cameras (in my store). hard to believe its a regional/local thing. that's a big inventory for just "one store". however, i just checked their site and couldn't find it. maybe try using the above photo at your local BBY?

I guess I'll be calling them every day for the next week. I have 30 days that I'm able to return this through eBay.

Return it FIRST.. Got mine on Friday and loving it .

HOW to Pricematch
I was trying to figure out how they do the price match since they don't show the price "officially" anywhere... but I got it.
For anyone reading that doesn't know how to get the price match, you tell the Bestbuy rep to call your local Costco and the sales rep there should say "$239.99".
It doesn't need to be on an ad, I basically trained the Bestbut rep cus he didn't even know how to do it :laugh:
confirmed when I bought one today.

FWIW a picture of the display should do it too. It's worked for me in the past.

No BB sales rep can do a price match without a manager's approval. Even if it were a seasonal employee fresh on the floor, they would still know to contact a manager or sales lead for approval and instruction on the process. No new hire I have ever seen takes instruction on internal processes from a customer. Surely trying to sound cool on XDA cannot be that important to you. And for what it's worth, you simply tell the employee that Costco has the watch normally priced below BB's price and you would like a price match. It's not like there's some secret method to accomplish this. Also, from Thanksgiving day til December 1st, it's BB policy not to price match anyone, so if you are hoping to get this done, do it before Thanksgiving day...or wait til after Dec. 1st. Although, a less busy store will likely do this for you during this time period, but again, it's at the manager's discretion.

The guy who I bought it from didnt contact anyone. But youre right, i was trying to show off on XDA! Not. I was simply posting it to help people, jerk. I went there and they didnt give me it on my first attempt because they had no proof. So I read the policy from their website. So they had to follow. But hey, what do i know, i dont have a cool minimum wage job at bestbuy like you do! Cheers to you man.

Not trying to highjack this thread but, I got it for 224.99 at Best Buy! I went to my local post office (ask the clerk) and got a movers pack. Inside the pack there's a 10% off coupon for Best Buy. Don't know if this was posted.
If you can get a price match AND 10% off that would be great.

FYI - my costco still has a full display of these things. I don't think anyone has taken a single one. I wouldn't be surprised if they're heavily discounted in the coming weeks.

The costco display is just pieces of cardboard. You have to take it to the cashier, then pick it up after checking out. I doubt they have enough stock for every piece of cardboard, the Costco I visited only had 15 or so when they got their stock.

Don't forget their return policy...AT LEAST one year for this, they said at a minimum they would match the manufacturer's warranty period. But I've read they take non-listed items (not computers, TVs, etc) back years later. Plus they are a great company.
Got mine there, and it was in the jewelry case of all places, with the other watches.
Good luck

Costco MOTO360 now just 169.99
Just bought a 360 yesterday for 169.99 plus tax. It is 239.99 with an immediate manufacturer's rebate. Can't beat this price.
