Trade in a TP2 for credit towards EVO...?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Sprint is going to rip you off with their prices for buy backs.

Try Radio Shack and Best Buy.

You will not get as much money if you were to sell it, but at least you get some money out of it.

Brownhornet, a user on these forums, said that BB offered him $140 for a Hero. So I'm guessing they should offer more for the TP2. All credit goes to him, so thank him if you run into his posts.

$82 sounds good to me. I only paid $100 for it and it is a little bruised up now.

No way dude, go with the Best Buy trade-ins. I just checked mine, and I put my condition as FAIR instead of GOOD, and it gave me 154 on gift card, 100 mail in.

Sprint's Buy Back program used to be halfway decent until recently. I think everything changed earlier this year when they started accepting non-Sprint/Nextel phones. I got $50 each for 2 Rumors (which were free anyway) late last year. I also got $38 for a Sanyo SCP-2700 (also free) that had a bad charge port (Sprint claimed physical damage and wanted a $50 deductible, yeah right). I have sold numerous Nextel and Sprint phones to them in the past for pretty good prices. Usually phone with less or not resale value on eBay or craigslist.

...but I agree. If you have a smartphone or any of the latest dumbphones in good condition and don't want to bother selling it, DON'T go with Sprint. Best Buy, Radio Shack and others will net you more. The only disadvantage to these programs are that you are stuck with their gift cards (well BB does checks for a lesser value, I guess paper costs them more than plastic).

FYI...every once in a while the Radio Shack will take phones with a value less than $10 or no value at all and give you a $10 gift card for each. I have done this with 15 phones this year. All proceeds going towards my EVO 4G.

Re: Trade in a TP2 for credit towards EVO...?
 

Well there is a big difference in the cash value versus the gift card value.
