I'm sure Sprint has put just a tad bit more thought into the pricing than you have. They are a global business. Not the greatest, but they didn't get there by luck. If $350 or whatever is out of your price range, then you might just have to buy a cheaper phone. Ever thought of that? You probably haven't and will charge it to your credit card which you won't pay off. That will then be passed on to the other 250+ million americans who will bail you out. Its the American way!!!!!!

awesome, awesome post!

You do know that we are the reason they are in business. It's called competition.

They have to be competitive or else they won't make it, because we have choices. This is America, and in America you milk these companies to the dime because if you don't. You are in reality uninformed and instead getting your cow mammary glands milked instead. It's your duty as an informed consumer to *****, Complain, moan, whatever it takes to get what you deserve. Sure, it sounds selfish, and it sounds rude, but this isn't about being complimentary or nice, it's about getting the most of what you pay for.

Yes, I think its a highway robbery to buy a TP2 for $450. But thats always the sticker price. Just like when you buy a car, you can (As I said above) negotiate your terms.

I agree the above post is hypocritical. But being a consumer is not about being a goody two shoes.

Really, is that all you got out of that, that I'm not willing or cannot make the means to pay for it, you're truly an arrogant A S S. Also, since you know me so well, you should no I don't use credit, cash or I don't need it.

Since you cannot fathom the thought of my opinion which I clearly state I know it is impossible, and because you don't agree with it, which I'm not forcing you to my view, you rather expose the real A S S you are!

Have a nice life looser

I'd say, just let the law of supply and demand run it's course. I'm sure Sprint will get an idea of how well it is selling within the first 2 weeks. If it isn't selling, I'm sure the price will come down.

Why so serious folks, like I said it is impossible, but you know thought is really cool, too me anyway.


Sure did get folks fired up though huh....lol

You really are in no position to insult, all over a measly thread and some opinions over how unfair the price of the Sprint TP2 is advertised as.

We get it.

The first post was silly in that it presents a plan that is highly unlikely to have any impact. But to suggest that a willingness to play hardball to negotiate for lower prices shows a sense of entitlement, to suggest that people who are willing to propose such negotiations must be financially irresponsible, is far more absurd than anything from the OP. The leap from what the OP said to what that poster was accused of is bizarre, to say the least.

A willingness to negotiate is hardly "exactly what is wrong with the world today." Allow me to offer that the world suffers far more from ignorance and a lack of critical thinking than haggling.

This has got to be the most uninformative thread I have ever read on this site. I can't believe I just wasted time in my life reading about something that will never make a difference. But, if you honestly think that you can get them to lower the price, please feel free to spend your time trying to convince the rest of us not to purchase the phone we have all wanted to buy since we ever heard about it. All I can say is, "Good Luck."
Speed..

Good point. I like your ending statement.

Well, as the saying goes.

Good Idea but it will never work.They will prolly drop the pric or rebate the TP2 when it has been out for a while but not now. Maybe you should wait a while or start saving.
