Telesales vs Online Order (quicker delivery)

knlmwq · #1 (**permalink**) 06-03-2010, 11:03 AM

Anyone know which order method would have the quickest shipout/delivery speed? Lets say sales go live online at midnight but we cant order by phone til friday morning (around 7 am). Would it be better to wait til Friday morning to place the order by phone or order online? I am wondering if anyone has experience with both on release day and could speak on which method was fastest. At this point I am giving up on getting it on Friday, I just want to know which method gives me the best shot to have it by Monday. Thanks!

I have never done it on release day they have always done the orders a few weeks in advance and we always had are phone before the release date but there were always problems with shipping. If you order from telesales it will be at your home Monday.

Yea I'm pretty much in the same boat as you. Def wanna avoid going to the Sprint store at any cost lol. So its either telesales or the website. Got an email this morning saying to contact my sprint rep on the 4th. So I'm guessing it'll be on the site by 12 midnight??

Telesales will do free overnight shipping. If you order it early, and because there is now Saturday delivery, you'll have it Monday.
I would awesome that if you ordered online at midnight, and selected overnight shipping, the same would be true. I just don't know if you get free overnight when ordering online.

So, basically, if you order from either online or telesales, you should have your EVO Monday.

There's always a small chance telesales will start taking orders today for tomorrow deliveries, at least that's what I'm hoping.

What's wrong with going to your local Sprint Store. With the amount of people going to Best Buy and Radio Shack for the instant rebates, I really don't expect that many people to be at the Sprint store.

its funny you consider them dumbass but come post in their thread and try to run it like your a mod but all you can do is post a smart comment

..and think you made this site and the rules...Now back to talkin about the Evo in the EVO section lol(CW)

on this thread though i think you should go with telesales cause they will process it quicker that way and have the shipping order sent to the warehouse where they will ship out as soon as possiable(depending on order volume)
