No Evo4G's at Best Buy without a qualified upgrade

Just heard that Best Buy stores in my district are NOT selling the Evo at full price to anyone.... In order to get an Evo you have to be qualified by Sprint for an upgrade (either $75-1yr or $150-2yr).

E-mail came from the District Manager (Southern Wisconsin)... so it may not be true in all stores...

Confirmed by BB rep. No EVO unless you are upgrading or opening a new line.

Re: No Evo4G's at Best Buy without a qualified upgrade

Craigslist sellers are kind of crazy. Had a guy tell me that phone is $650 at launch, and someone is buying it from him on Wednesday for $750, so unless I beat his offer...

Re: No Evo4G's at Best Buy without a qualified upgrade

My Best Buy already said they were going to price match the Sprint store at $449.

So it's pretty obvious that each store and district is handling things differently. The solution is to just call the store up and see how they are handling each situation. Take each person's post on here with a grain of salt because you are going to have a ton of different answers and stories.

Re: No Evo4G's at Best Buy without a qualified upgrade

Well if your a premier customer with Sprint and the primary line you get $150 towards a new 2 year agreement...not 75...unless your paying less than $100 on your bill..

Not sure what plan your on...

Either way, I have to wait till August 1st to get my $150 Premier credit...so I'll be watching you guys and seeing what you say about the Evo for 2 months..."sigh" "Slamming head on desk"....
