Re: Post Your EVO Launch Day Pics/Stories!
Man, I need to vent. I preordered at Best Buy and very little went right for me. I was fine with the system issues. I totally understood and was cool about that, however I had a few major problem. I was trading in my TP2. I filled out everything online and was going to get $127 back. I took my print out to the Geek Squad as directed online. They guy told me that they are unable to process the trade in. He told me I can call and have it shipped out, but that was the only option. Meh, I figured I could sell it for more then $127, so I didn't let that get me down. So I went to get me phone. I was not eligible for an upgrade, so I paid full retail. After and hour and 15 minutes I was all ready to check out. Uh-oh. They would not price match Sprint! I didn't find this out until the very end. She just told me that they weren't doing it. She told me I can talk to a manager but nobody was available and I just wanted to get the hell out of there. To top that off, she forgot to apply the $50 pre-order gift card. They actually had to refund the gift card to me. They couldn't go back and apply it to the purchase. So $714 and and hour and a half later, I walked out a proud, but beaten, EVO owner.
So what are my odds of contacting a manager and actually having them price match Sprint and refund me $150? Pretty good I hope.
