Best Buy Pricing for Tour
- Switched from AT&T today back to Verizon and swung by Best Buy after being told yesterday the new 2 year contract price would be $99.99 and purchased around 6 pm. Very happy and pleased to be back on Verizon. Glad to be a Blackberry owner once again. The tour is perfect for me.07-13-09 10:24 PMLike 0
- I'm not totally sure about the Best Buy pricing issue, but I can tell you this. You do not need to be at 18 months to get your upgrade. They'll do the upgrade now ($199) if you ask the right person the right way. I got a Storm on launch day and upgraded to The Tour yesterday at the $199 price.07-13-09 10:44 PMLike 0

thanks a lot. think i should refuse my package? it comes in today. or should i just keep it and call it a day.
and ps. you mind telling me the diff besides price for getting the phone at best buy? do i go to them if i need something fixed or exchanged. does the 30 day thing still apply..etc07-14-09 05:23 AMLike 0 - You can still go to verizon if you need service.
You would probably need to return the phone to verizon (might be able to return it to the store instead of mailing it back) and let them reset your upgrade before best buy could sell you the phone.07-14-09 08:09 AMLike 0 -
- ok i got 1 at best buy added a line to my existing contract they charged me activation fee to be on my first bill got the phone for 99.00 plus tax so should i cancel before 3 days to get my activation fee removed and then will they bill me for the etf and not interfere with my original contract?07-14-09 09:47 PMLike 0
- Best Buy is totally screwed up. If you find a store offering these low prices, jump on it before they figure it out. The Best Buy where I live is much higher than what can be bought at Verizon. For new line, add a line and full retail. They will figure it out and price correct them all.07-14-09 09:58 PMLike 0
- Yeah Best Buy was very expensive I assumed the price would have been marked up but when the total with tax came to 760 full retail i did a double take but all and all it is defintely worth it and my upgrade is in december so i'm sure they'll have something better around or after that time frame.07-14-09 10:12 PMLike 0
- thats prolly because you quoted it as a one year upgrade and not an annual upgrade, some employees dont know the differnce07-14-09 10:19 PMLike 0
- I found this interesting. I chatted with a sprint rep online today and had an interesting conversation. ( I like to chat with them from time to time to laugh at their lack of knowledge) Here is the convo:

11:43:45 PM Agent LaToya P
Due to high demand for this Blackberry device, all orders have been put in a back order status until Sprint receives more devices from RIM.
11:43:50 PM Agent LaToya P
We expect to receive these devices on 7/20 at which time all orders will be fulfilled on a first come, first serve basis.
