No. If you were to walk into a Sprint store that had it in stock and you only qualified for a 1 yr discount, you would be paying $580 - $75 = $505 + tax and you would NOT qualify for the $130 mail-in rebate (that's only for new customers or current ones who have been out their contract for 22+ months). The Sprint 2yr upgrade price is $300 (same as BB's). So not only is Best Buy giving you a lower 1 yr upgrade price than Sprint ($460 vs $505), but you can also take advantage of the 20% Reward Zone discount ($460 - 20% = $368 ). Its an absolutley great deal. If you want an even bigger discount, wait another 7 days so you can qualify for your 2 yr discount, then get the phone for $300 - 20% = $240 + tax.
