Question Bold Price Drop?

For At&t users, will the BB Bold have a price drop when the New BB Tour is released in the upcoming month?

Doubt it, it just dropped $100 recently and they had that free refurb thing for a long time.

I seriously doubt they'd do 2 $100 price drops back to back.

You don't want the crippled AT&T E71 though =P. It's worth paying the extra for the unbranded one...

Considering the recent prices drops on the Bold and the Tour on Verizon, I dont think we will see anything different in pricing from what we see know at Att and Radioshack

The price fluctuates wildly depending on whether or not you're extending / commiting to a contract.
If you want to buy a Bold with no contract try looking at the marketace here on the CBerry forums. You'll find that most are for sale at reasonable prices compared to other outlets and often come with added accessories and what-not.
To buy with a contract you're best shopping around at major retailers in your area then calling ATT and saying you found a Bold for such and such a price and would they care to beat that price to make the sale...be polite and you'll be surprised at what some reps will do to get the sale.

I just got mine last week from circuitcity.com for $149 (existing customer upgrade)...I got tired of waiting for another price drop. Well worth every penny!
