Thanks for this info. I had no idea that Sprint did away with the yearly upgrade. I may need to check on this before I go to pick mine up.

You're welcome. Also, they will only override it for the month of June and you have to get it through the telesales department since they are the only ones with the power to override. Plus, they may try to charge you $12 for shipping and an $18 upgrade fee. These can be easily waived by unchecking a couple of boxes. All you have to do is object to paying shipping and an upgrade fee and they will be happy to waive it. I used to work in telesales for Sprint so I know this. Their shipping is pretty fast, 2 days. They are open until 1am so I will try calling just after midnight on 6/24 to see if they will let me place my order for Evo 3D. Dial *7 from your Sprint phone to get to the telesales department.

How did you talk them into overriding your upgrade to the full $150?

Is there any way you can send me the email Sprint sent you giving the official full price? I just dont want them to raise it on me. If I had that email I could use it as proof just in case they try to screw me.

Thanks!

Yes but you need to add the $150 (two year upgrade discount) onto the $399.99 two year price. This would make it $549.99 outright. Sprint always adds instant savings discounts on top of the $150 upgrade savings discounts. I used to work for Sprint and Radio Shack.

smart plan :) I wish Sprint would extend the promotion through June 24. They already know the Evo 3D is a big draw to get people to switch, but why not make it an EVEN bigger draw? Are they afraid of adding new subscribers? lolol
