was looking for a local corporate store and found they have the Kaiser/tilt available to all customers now. Ordered mine with a two year upgrade for $250 (after $100 mail in rebate and $200 instant rebate). You can't complain at that since the 8525 was still $400 with two year a month ago.

How did you get $250 when the site shows $299.99?
You might want to talk to retention if your contract is up. (866-907-3480). I just ordered mine for $199.99 with overnight s&h (fee waived).

Was that before or after the rebates?
What did you tell them to get that deal?
Thanks!!
Kaiser on consumer ATT Website
I talked to them (AT&T) today.
Quick situation. Bought an 8525 on September 20th, 2007. Bought from Wirefly.com as it was $70 cheaper than AT&T with a 2-year plan extension.
Thought the tilt would be delayed until later. Anyhow, just checked that I can get a full refund from Wirefly. That's a go with two thumbs up so no complaints there. (Typically a 30-day satisfaction or exchange guarantee with AT&T and other authorized AT&T phone providers).
However, no Tilt's in stock out here in Las Vegas, NV at the bricks and mortar store. The on-line customer service guys for AT&T said I can't order the 8925 / Tilt without an "upgrade reversal". Sounds like a crock of crap to me. But he tells me the bricks and mortar store should have no problems.
Would like a Tilt and fend off product obsolescence. (Paid $329 and about $350 total with tax for the 8525 brand new.) They say $399 for the Kaiser / 8925 / Tilt on a two-year service renewal...
Any of you guys with ideas here on how to manage this situation or any recommendations or suggestions to get my Tilt order in ASAP?
Sincerely,
~cj

The online price was $499. a two year contract upgrade provided a $100 and a $50 instant rebate, I paid $349 and have a further two $50 mail in rebates to process on delivery for a $249 deal.

my contract was month to month, having not renewed it in over two years. I got free shipping as well. What is retention? I did my order thru the online website online, never spoke to anyone.

If you are planning to buy a ATT phones, wait till Friday all the phones will be at 50% discount including the TILT.
was announced on the RADIO.
More info anyone???
Can anyone provide more info (certain markets, or nationwide?)... or confirm this?
ATT 50% off Blackfriday
This sale is pretty much limited to CA, NV, ID, AZ, NM, UT, HI, OR, WA, CO. You get 50% off on almost any phone (no Iphone or Go Phones included). You however have to be eligible for an upgrade or new line of service. It seems to be a pretty good deal if you are looking to get the tilt or blackberry.

i believe at&t has a 30 day price match offer that includes them dropping their own prices, so you should be able to get the difference refunded if your in one of those states.

I await your findings. I live in AZ and I just bought my Tilt like 3 weeks ago so I fall in the 30 days like you
Before I bought mine I asked them if by some chance the Tilt went on sale for cheaper than I got it for (399.99) would they price match. They assured me that it would not go on sale so I insisted the "what if". They agreed that if it did go on sale by some weird chance (like black friday weekend) then they would do a price match.
Still I'm curious what you find out.
Thanks!
TILT price match
Hi Guys!
I got ordered my tilt on 8th and got it on 12th. I think i will be eligible for Price match. I got it on a forced upgrade for 592 USD with tax. Hope i can save some money on it.
Please post your opinions and findings..
.... Raj
I live in St. Louis, MO area, although i'm not on one of those states listed, i bought my phone about 2 weeks ago from an At&t store, not a an authorized dealer and actually store by at&t and that was the first thing i asked my rep was what if the price in it drops the day after Thanksgiving will they offer me that, and she said yes, they have a 30 day price match, also i told them about the amazon.com offer of 200bux plus a 25.00 rebate for a total of 175 for the phone w/a 2 year contract, and they did a pretty close offer of 250.00 and i dont have to pay the 36.00 activation fee, so basically i paid 214 2 weeks ago for it, sure the amazon deal is cheaper, but the in person service is something i dont mind paying a little more for incase there's a mess up w/something i can go back to the store, which is only 5 minutes from me and talk to someone in person and get everything right.
So I just got back from the AT&T store and they gave me an additional $150 credit to my bill since I puchased the phone less than 30 days ago!
Anyone that has purchased their AT&T Tilt less than 30 days ago needs to contact their original point of puchase today and tomorrow only and they will recieve a 50% credit to thier purchase!
SCORE!
Wonder how that works if you bought it from the AT&T web site...
Call customer service. They might have to do a return repurchase maneuver.
Thats what the AT&T rep told me when I called in before visiting my local store where I originally purchased the unit.
What if you bought it from a retailer like CompUSA or from a website like Newegg? Will they still offer you a discount on it or do the retailers have to do that?
I spoke to an ATT rep who told me that if I go into any ATT owned store I can redeem the credit. I hope that's true because I bought the phone on my parent's side of town - hours away.
150$ Refund!!!
I called att sales today and they refunded my credit card 150$ however I didnt qualify for the 100$ mail in refund though.

what did you say to them?!
I went down to the ATT store I bought mine from and I didn't qualify for the 50% off because-
a) I didn't have the data plan added on my phone (39.99 $/month)
I would have qualified if I just added the data plan on for that month BUT it would have screwed up my super mega ultra ridiculously low plan that already has unlimited internet access.
Was anyone able to pull off the half off without having the pda connect plan that is 39.99? If so, can you PM me the phone number of the ATT store so I can call them and see if they will credit me?
Just curious.
I bought my AT&T Tilt for $99 (after a $100 rebate) from Cartoys Online.
I've heard of people paying as much as $1000 for their phone. I assume thats for an unlocked unbranded version.
How much did you pay?
$399, with two $50 rebates, bringing it to $299 (with a 2yr contract, new account), bought it about two weeks after launch for ATT
I paid $150 AR during AT&T's black Friday sale on Premier. I almost paid $300 for it second hand, but the guy from craigslist flaked out on me... twice. I'm glad he did though. The $800 price tag you've seen going around was for the HTC Kaiser (TyTN II) which has the front-facing camera.
I bought mine (A genuine TytnII with all on board (except the video driver) ) 27.500 New Taiwan Dollar
Must be some 800 USD indeed.
I paid -100 dollars!
$250 in store with 2 year contract -100 mail in rebate.
I also got another line with a $50 mail in rebate and sold the phone that came with it on eBay for $200. Paid 0 in store for that phone (Samsung a737)
So in total I put $100 in my pocket... my girlfriend kept her unlocked V3 (I know, pretty mean...)
$1140 AUD Outright
I could have gotten it cheaper online but never underestimate the value of a local warranty Plus it came with the full version of Copilot Live 7 and an after-market screen protector.
Wasnt cheap... but worth it. HTC gear is hard to find in Perth.
$600 CAD from Craigslist
mine was free! well, almost. $50 insurance deductable.
800 CAD local
£480.00 each, we bought six of them (!!!)
Mine was free from orange with my upgraded contract
i paid £50 ($100) on a 12 month £20 ($40) a month contract
paid $870.00 AUD delivered, its HK stock though, so the power plug is different. warrenty is via local which is good.
ran it for 1 day as stock, then flashed dutty v4.....very happy.
KC
Bought a TyTN II from 3 Australia for 1049 AUD, so thats like 947 USD. expensive but worth it!
Drooch
Bought mine on Expansys for 660 euros...and i tought it was the cheapest price around!
It's absourd that in an italian store a kaiser costs not less than 800 euros while in the US you can buy it for nothing...
Paid £105 as an upgrade phone from T-Mobile on a 1 year (£35 a month) contract.
It's very interessting to see how much the Kaiser cost in different countrys.
My contract in Germany included a pay-out of 100€.
So I paid for my Kaiser (VPA 1615v; incl. all monthly fees) 280€ or 410$
I didn't pay anything since it's a company phone. But they paid $299.
I bought mine with a two year contract at bestbuy for $325.00 with a plan of 65 or lower....
with a plan of 65 or higher it cost you $299.00.
I gave in an old cellphone so that they can discount $30.00.
$340 off Craig's List, and work will reimburse me $100. Will sell once (if?) T-Mobile USA rolls out their 3G.
i've been looking everywhere for a good deal on this phone and havent been able to find it so if anyone is tired of theres id gladly take it. thanks in advance

If you are a new customer to AT&T I suggest for you to buy it online with Amazon which has free 2 day shipping and with 2 year contract goes for about 175 (150 after rebate). I did this to obtain my fuze and I was very pleased with how smoothly I was able to save soo much money (Sales Rep at AT&T wanted 300).

im already locked in a contract i wish i could
Not too much you can do locked into a contract like that, esp if you aren't willing to break into a new seperate contract with the full data plan, I had to buy mine new from ebay for $400. I sold my Tilt for $255 and that made up for most of it.
(Viva la $15 Unlimited Media.net!)
I am not eligable for an upgrade until next December and with HTC releasing a new device of my style (Wizard, TyTN, TyTN II...touch screen with slide out keyboard) usually halfway through the year and then finally getting to the US near the end of the year, that should work out just fine.
I will just have to sell off my Fuze by then, so if you are still looking to buy one for $300 by next December... hit me up.

hopefully ill find one by then thanks anyways
When I bought mine about a week ago, Amazon had up an option for existing AT&T customers. Not sure whether the offer was the same, because as a new customer I didn't follow the link, but it might be worth giving the Fuze page on Amazon a look and seeing what it says...
I was only 11 months into my 2 year contract with my discounted Tilt. if you ask real nice most store managers can still sell you a Fuze at the discount (299??). they can punch in an exception on your account right at the store. I got my Fuze for that price , but did have to extend back to 24 months under contract again. If one store wont do it, try another. You will come across a store with a manager that will do it.
I just odered it for $150 with a $150 mail in rebate from htc and LetsTalk.com. It came with a 2 yr contract with At&t. I went to http://www.htc.com/us/where_to_buy.aspx and selected usa then HTC Online Store. I then selected HTC FUZE™ (AT&T). FREE Touch pro!

Was that a new plan or an upgrade/extension? I went to the site and it does appear to be for either but when I went to letstalk.com directly the deal was only being offered for new service and upgrades were at $249. What was your experience? Thank you.
First time at&t customer. I hope they offer this to both.
hey, i'm in need of cash and selling my FUZE, let me know if your still interested
Got this via email from TMOUS
Pre-registration special offer. Enter promo code STREAK4G and get $50 off! Supplies are limited. Offer ends February 9, 2011.
Enjoy!
Didnt work tryed it
sent from my Dinc
It worked when I entered it online. Cancelled that order and was able to get a local T-No to credit me 50.00 instead and I still get the 50.00 rebate on top of it.
I went into a tmobile store and walked out with it for $199 and still got the rebate.
didnt work for me today in store or online :-(
Altho i wasn't happy with the screen at all when I saw the actual unit, so I'm not gonna pull the trigger on it now.
I returned mine. I was fine with the screen, fit and finish. The only and biggest problem I had was the battery 3 hours is a killer for me. I think it will be a problem with dual core processors and multi tasking.
