I am trying to buy an ATT TILT +PDA personal MAX plan - should be easy? No!
Regular pricing shows TILT $399 less 2 X $50 MIR = $299 and plan $39.99
However, I registered as Premier and found out to my dismay that as a Premier customer I am charged $399.99 (and no mention of MIR) and even worse - the PDA personal MAX plan is $44.99. I am qualified for upgrade - no problem.
Question is simple - how can I order (obviously to my existing number and voice plan) at the "advertised" prices and not at the special Premier prices which turn out to be more expensive.
I know it sounds weird - HELP
Wrong, a little
Premiere shows at $399 persistently until the second you add a data plan. Then the price drops to $299 which is the same as the in-store pricing after the 2 x $50 rebates.
At least that is my premiere experience.

Well....aren't you special!?
No contract: $275.00 (Tilt)
Later, Lew
I Paid $ 550 USD + Tax For Tilt And its worth every single penny of my money
Unlocked HTC TyTN II in Oman for OMR 395, which is USD 1027
Yesterday another dealer called me and offered the same for OMR 350 (USD 910)
$408 after tax for Tilt and just like QLtnpapi, worth every cent.
430 - tilt.
for the ppl who paid 400ish where did you buy it?
99$$ for the tilt with contract..
660 Euros from Dubai.
Got mine from T-Mobile Netherlands for 180 euros with 2 year contract of 9 euro a month the first year and 19 euro the second. The total will be approx 630 euro. Extra I had signed for an unlimited data plan (3G) for 9.95 a month. All this mean that I'm paying about 1,50 a day.
Mine was a free upgrade on Voda UK.
18 Month Contract @ £25 per month for 150 x net minutes and 100 sms.
Quite happy with that
2 year contract
The total will be 885$
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 bought two of these to see if I could start selling them for a profit...that pretty much backfired. I paid well over $500 per phone for them....willing to sell for $500 each with free shipping!
Paypal or credit card accepted (I have an off road retail business http://www.AlpineSandToys.com)
Both are new in boxes and have never been used. USA versions.
Dale
don't think they really worth $500 anymore when auctions goin for $250
no its actually the sprint phone that are going for around 250 the gsm versions are still at 550 and up on ebay , they are 800 at radioshack and around 600 at cti miami
For anyone wondering, I did the math on the three options provided by Verizon in terms of paying for the S6 Edge. Here are my equations, where n is sales tax. If you want to find out the cost where you live, replace n with (1+your sales tax). So if your sales tax is 9%, n=1.09:
32 GB
Verizon Edge: (29.16)(24)n=
2 Yr Contract: 299.99+[699.99(n-1)]+(15*24)n=
Full Price: (699.99)n=
64GB
Verizon Edge: (33.33)(24)n=
2 Yr Contract: 399.99+[799.99(n-1)]+(15*24)n=
Full Price: (799.99)n=
128GB
Verizon Edge: (37.49)(24)n=
2 Yr Contract: 499.99+[899.99(n-1)]+(15*24)n=
Full Price: (899.99)n=
For example purposes, I calculated with a sales tax of 9%. At 9%:
32 GB
Verizon Edge: $735.83
2 Yr Contract: $755.39
Full Price: $762.99
64GB
Verizon Edge: $871.91
2 Yr Contract: $864.39
Full Price: $871.99
128GB
Verizon Edge: $980.74
2 Yr Contract: $973.39
Full Price: $980.99
This only the device, not the amount you'll be spending per month in terms of data and minutes. However, the 15 dollar discount you receive for being off-contract is included in the price difference when compared to the 2 Yr Contract. I also didn't include any promotions held by Samsung, Verizon, or any other companies, as to keep this relevant for future readers.
In conclusion, inflation makes the difference between Verizon Edge and 2 Yr Contract negligible, so if you're on the fence, choose whatever you're comfortable with. Inflation also makes it much cheaper for you to pay through Verizon Edge instead of paying everything up front. So unless you're getting a significant discount somehow through a different dealer or Amazon or something, don't purchase the phone with a single payment.
+ no $40 activation fee for Verizon Edge
+ $100 bill credit to the new customer for Verizon Edge
No that best buy also sells phone with Verizon Edge, but the price is $150 higher than the Verizon Shop. I ordered mine from Verizon. I miss the preorder bonus from best buy (wireless charger), but I can find cheaper chargers in Amazon ($10 duracell bundle)

I actually did something quite similar but I simply went through the process twice on Verizon's device and plan pages.
For an S6 Edge using their 'Edge' service plan it worked out to $101.30 per month, basic service, 2GB, no addons, pre tax.
For an S6 under 2 year contract it came out to $72 and change plus the $349.99.
Running those numbers, the Edge plan cost $2431.20 over the course of 24 months. (taxes and fee's extra)
The contract rate however was $1735.2 + the $349.99 = $2085.19! (taxes and fees extra)
Now, there's the activation fee pay right? then that $30 discount for renewal but in my case an additional $100 for phone trade and the $50 mail in rebate.
Anyway, I realize your mileage may vary but according to the numbers I got off of Verizon's website, the Edge plan is an absolutely terrible option. Maybe multiple lines or large data plans might change that but for me the difference was roughly $486 savings to go with the contract.
Food for thought.
I guess you didn't count $15 / month discount for the customers with Edge program.
So basically you have to subtract 15*24 = $360 from the price.
I saw an article somewhere around the internet.. and it actually was the same price for both contract and edge including the activation fee.
But new customers are likely get $100 more benefit from the edge.
Again, existing customers can get a free gift if preorder through Best Buy.

I did a 2-year contract upgrade and not sure if it was noted or not but there was a $40 upgrade fee included as well.
Hey, nice to make your acquaintance.
Unfortunately the numbers still don't pan out. I just went through and did it again, this time the contract price came out to $80 per month. not sure why I saw $72 last time and $80 this time but....
Anyway, That's the monthly price minus fees and taxes. I didn't forget to add anything, Verizon did it all on their checkout page. 80*24+40-30+200=2130.
2 year Edge: 2430
2 year Contract: 2130
I was wrong in saying $486 and for that, my bad, but no matter how you slice it, contract is cheaper for a single line plan. Unless you need to upgrade often I just can't see the point. Then again, I've been on Verizon since the bastards absorbed Alltel years ago. Now that was a good company. I've never been particularly fond of Verizon but... I'm a CDMA guy so I don't see that I have much of a choice.
Edge is cheaper.

I'm sure it is for some. For a single line, 2GB plan, no, it is not. Go to Verizon and price them both out... It's all there on their page.
Also, I believe at the higher-tier plans, you get a $25/mo discount off, not just $15. Here is a good website that breaks it down:

Yep minimum 8GB of data gives you -25$ Discount so add that 25$x24 months. (as a saving)

Yea i realized my mistake later was to lazy to edit lol
Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
My analysis goes like this....
I HAVE to have 64gb. 32 if MicroSD would be fine. But... that means 64 is a must since no more MicroSD.
I have unlimited data. If I go to Edge or renew my contract (I am off contract for over a year) I am forced onto a new plan AND loose unlimited. When I did the math on the prices/costs/fees of a new plan over 2 years (and unlimited data loss) VERSUS just outright keeping the phone and plan and data and no contract I have now, buying the phone outright wins in a dollars to dollars comparison.
9% sales tax omg where is that at!?!
California - many cities have 8-9 percent sakes tax.
Edge is more beautiful than S6 I think.

I have no idea if VZW was bull****ting with me, but they said that if you are on a family plan and the aggregate total data the family can use is at a certain level (in my wife's case, 16 GB), then everyone on the plan can get $25/mo off by switching to Edge. That sounded too good to be true, but they let my wife go to Edge and save $25/mo on the family plan.

they trolling you don't worry. All that has to be is at least 6GB data plan for -25$ either out of contract or on edge. Can't really believie reps these days especially last month they tried to make do an upgrade like twice when I was asking for something else and out of nowhere they were telling me that I asked for upgrade 2 weeks earlier and I never did lol.

Yea, I hear ya. So, let's say 4 people are on a family plan that has 12GB/month total data available. Can all 4 people go on Edge and each save $25? That's what VZW was telling me.

In this case yes unless I misunderstood your last post that would be correct. As long as there is a minimum of 6GB data package on all your lines you would get 25$/per line per-edge phone or if you are out of contract.
Hope that helps
