Sprint 'MIGHT' match Verizon's $199 Price

[353Entertainment]

I called Sprint today and I was nice as I could be. I took some of you guys' advice on here and spoke to 3 different reps (lots of patience)...to make a long story short....

My contract expired last month, so I knew I could get the phone for $350 after the mail in rebate, but i wanted to see if i could get it cheaper. I told the rep i spoke with about the verizon price and she immediately asked me if she discounted it to $199 would i buy it today, i was shocked as to how easy it was, and i said "sure"....well, although I had to pay up front for the phone, she discounted my account $150, waived the activation and waived the next day shipping. (I still get the mail in rebate)

Now, I'm sure i had some leverage considering i was not under contract, but wanted to let you all know just in case you were still shopping for the phone....

While she was applying the credits, we had small talk and she mentioned or 'let it slip' that starting this week, they began matching the verizon price in this way for their loyal customers or for clients in good standing that really want this phone....

Just thought i'd throw it out there...
