[GSXify]

wow thats insane, so are you going to get it? i believe you have a better chance speaking to them, try account services... i used them last year for the 9650 when i wasnt due an upgrade

I'm on a Gold Plan.
I have to pay only 200.



F My Life. (I thought it was gonna be 250 so I bought a PlayBook)
Now I don't have enough for a 9930.

what is the Gold plan from Sprint?

I'm premier Gold too, and got the 9930 for 199$ upgrade - its for Mom replacing her ancient 8330m...

Seems like premier gold accounts are getting the extra 50$ web discount....

[pv845]

FYI: I think that was said other posts but you don't get the extra discount in store. I bought mine yesterday (8/20) in store. It was $250, and I
asked about an extra discount for Gold Premier members. No dice, but at least I have it in hand.

Maybe if you call up Cust. Care or Account Services, they'll credit you back the $50. No harm in trying. I'm headed to the store in about an hour to pay full retail at $499.99 so I can stay out of contract.

i did this myself...got $30 for an old 8530 i had in the store today. and i sold my bold 9650 last week for $150 cash...

Yes!

Thats just what I was going to do....

I hate the fact they they have the 2 different prices knowing most people dont want to wait to have the phone shipped to them.

It should be cheaper instore, give the customers a nice gift for being loyal and getting to the store early to buy a new phone.

I really really want to get it but I'm going try what you just told me first and I'll see what happens from there on.

just had my sprint employee cousin put two orders in for me and my wife at retail price....i mistakenly used my upgrade in june for a dumb *** android phone. what a useless platform. never got any facebook notifications and forget about email unless its a gmail account. you'll never know how much you love blackberry till you give it up for some shiny piece of Taiwanese garbage. im pickin the 2 new 9930's up tomorrow...cant wait.

[blackoutRF]

Just picked one up for full retail. Had some trouble activating it on my SERO plan but it eventually was done. Paid $499.99 + tax = $529.99. I'm loving it. It isn't my main line (I have AT&T as well) but I will be taking advantage of the email/BBM

Not to kill a dead horse but it truly feels and acts like the "best Blackberry ever".

At the Sprint store?

[mrrsquared79]

Is there any advantage to buying in store vs online?

I have two old BB's(8330 & 9630) I wish to trade in and was hoping that if I went in store, they would buy them back, even for $30-50 a piece.

However if the online price will still beat this, I will most likely order online and wait for it to be shipped.

Thoughts/experience anyone?

I believe you can order your phone online to get the $50 web savings and still use the buyback program to trade-in your old phones to get more back after the purchase. I am not 100%, but I would just call a Sprint CSR and confirm.

I bought mine online yesterday for $199.99 and chatted with a rep online and had the activation fees credited as well.

[sj-performance]

U can buy online. And then still get money via the trade in program on the Sprint website. Thing is if you trade in at store u don't have to worry about shipping them the phones. Via online you have to ship it to them I believe. Check to see if by going to the store u can still trade in and not have to buy anything from the store...call store and find out

I know if you have a best buy around you they will buy them back also when you go to buy the phone.

Yes, Best Buy also has a buy back program, but you would have to purchase the new phone through Best Buy b/c I believe you get a Best Buy gift card when you trade in your phone, and with Sprint, I believe you get a prepaid Visa gift card.

[eve6er69]

last i knew you can use the discount for the phone your buying.
