    how much would you pay for a blackberry tour? someone offered me a new one for $300. is that good? i was actually just going to get a storm for $150 so this is quite a difference for me. is it worth the $300?

    i'm currently using a curve 8330 so storm or tour would be both upgrades. the storm would be used but this $300 tour is new.

    the retail of the Tour is pretty high, but if your contract it up with Verizon and you can get an upgrade, the Tour is 149.99

    i should have clarified that this is not something i'll get from verizon. my contract won't be up until 2011 lol. this is something i will have to just pay out of pocket. that's why i'm trying to figure out if getting a new tour is worth the price, double that of the used storm i was going to get for $150.

    Yes, it's probably worth it. Like mjbesen said the retail is really high for these. I would make sure it can be activated before I handed over cash though.

    since your still under contract and can get it for 300 bucks, do it.

    That's definitely a good deal. Just make sure it wasn't stolen and can be activated before buying

    Even though the Tour is a lot more money then the Storm the Tour is A lot better phone though as well. You will love the Tour though!

    In any case, I think for $300, the Tour is absolutely worth it. Make sure, like others have said, that the ESN is clear and everything is good to go ahead before you flash any cash!

    I was at Best buy a few days ago, and without contract they were listed as $699.99 for Verizon, and $649.99 for Sprint. WTF? Are they insane? If you have been a long time customer and never been late on your account, you can pull one out considerably lower than $149 with 2 year agreement on new every 2 early upgrade.

    On Telus, the Tour retails for around $800-850, but they have a deal on that brings it down to $599.99 with no contract (I got this one, since I already have a 3-year with them), goes down to $549.99 with a 1-year, $499.99 with 2, and $229.99 with 3.

    Pretty good deals on the Tour, and even though I paid (almost) full price, I already know that it was completely worth it and haven't looked back

    $300 isn't bad. That's the Sprint 2 year contract price before rebate.

    As a Tour user, I would say that $300 is definitely a good price for a like new Tour.
