Reliable sources advise that UNLOCKED brand new factory fresh KeyOne(s) are expected to stock at distribution at the end of this week Aug 25th with , all things being equal, deliveries to resellers commencing next week as early as Monday the 28th August. probably by Wednesday the 30th more relaisitcally.
My Walmart order status has changed to "Packaging your order" as of a few hours ago. Not sure if this means they have the KEYone's in stock or...
Yesterday I sent them an email asking about the order (mainly hoping to get more of a discount since they promised mid-August). I'm really hoping some over-eager support rep didn't see the order and think "Hey we should be shipping him a DTEK!"
At this rate a race to the price bottom. Great for buyers. Make sure to use credit card to pay. !
Actually they've had those prices at that since June... seems like it's the modus operandi for those dropshippers. NCIX always had it at MSRP, $729.99.
But either way KEYone isn't a new phone by now and it's just adjusting down to what it's really worth anyways.
ToniCipriani: Thanks for posting this! I've never price matched anything before and this saved me $60 !! I had already purchased online from walmart . I used the walmart link you included & price matched for the 675.99 because the $672 ad mentioned an additional shipping charge right on the ad. I have no idea if walmart would calculate that into the price match, so I went with the other one and they've already approved the credit. Thank you!
my pre order from CrackBerry/BlueShop is at the local FedEx sorting facility (shipped last night). So I should have my phone in a few hours. I actually started to doubt I'd ever receive anything! :P
