You, sir, are in the wrong. SERO is locked down to Sprint telesales/online as far as upgrading phones goes. It is clearly posted in their SERO FAQ and reflected in user experience. I have heard two rumors of people getting it done at Radio Shack (I'm starting to think they actually had SERO clones) compared to some 50+ who were denied and forwarded to Sprint telesales. I was one of those poeple. I tried buying an Epic a and the Sprint store reps wouldn't even touch my account, let alone BB/RS/etc.
Of course it may be possible to get lucky and have the 3rd party employee call Sprint for you to switch your plan while manually adjusting the sale price of the phone. Don't count on this. From the crazy influx of success/failure of posts in the last two days, I'd advise against wasting your time on this.
