Best buy will go by whatever sprint's system says - they do not do a $75 or $150 discount though. The prices are like $450 (not sure exactly on this one anymore) and $300 I think for 1 year and 2 year eligibility respectively, no rebates needed. The 20% discount is taken off of this price. The 1 year comes out to $365+tax and the 2 year comes out to $240+tax after discount.

I imagine most people getting the $240 deal are 2 year eligible. The best buy rep explained that they have no way of overriding what sprint says and the reps they call are non-negotiable on this.

I paid $365+tax (=$400.xx after tax) for mine.

And yes, certain customers become eligible faster.
