wow, beat to the punch
LOL i just litteraly got that email and came directly here to post but you got to it first. lol

I was thinking, you get that deal, sell the Skyrocket in the MP and get a Free 8.9 tab out of the deal. I don't have the $500 to do that or I'd sure as hell try.

Still stuck paying the monthly bill for both though.

It would have been a deal if it was offcontract. Doesn't sound so good at the moment with heavy monthly bills.

I agree, but if you were planning on getting a new phone and tab anyway, it may suit you. Meh.

Only if you don't mind paying at least $15 for Tab data for next two years, which gives you a measly 200MB a month. Is $360 over two years forth a "free" Skyrocket? Add another $100 and you'll easily find one off-contract and save yourself from a forced marriage to AT&T.

White is only available online, not in the stores. I'll be working that day, so if there's anyone in the nh/ma area, come see me!!

Holy crap. I gotta return the one I just bought on Amazon and get in on this deal! Hope I can.

Oh sweet! Definitely picking up a white gs2!

My question is: I have the 1000 minutes Classic Family and an upgrade on my line. Am I eligible for this offer? (I also have unlimited text + 5GB)
I called a store rep and he said this is only for Unlimited Classic and Value plans. But then again he said he hasn't been notified of the sale yet.

So you still gotta pay the fee up front right? What about online? No upfront fee for that or still? Im eligable for full upgrade but was waiting about one more week for my tax return and i dont wanna miss this but dont have any for upfront fee...

The info I've seen said upfront money and mail in rebate.

My local store is asking $330 for the S III!!!

Not only is the $280 you need to pay to purchase this phone online outrageous when compared to the other carriers, but my local store is asking for $50 more!!! Are they insane? What happened with T-Mobile and the S III? People don't want it that bad, guys!
Sorry for the rant.

tax, fees, etc.

T mobile cannot afford to subsidize these phones at the same rate as the larger carriers so you have to pay more on contract.

That's what I paid for it on the day one. It was $330 plus tax and upgrade fee's. A total of $389

$280 is already insane. Don't let your stores charge $50 more on top of that or you'll be shooting yourself in the foot with one of the most anticipated devices of the year. My 2c.

Yes, Walmart sells T-mobile phones for new and existing customers. They have computers at their wireless center for each carrier. It allows them to perform upgrades just like you were at a T-mobile store.

I paid the 299 to Att since my voice plan did not qualify for the $100 instant rebate, didn't like that but I sold my iPhone 4 for 270 so it wasn't that bad of an upgrade for me

Hey at least your not buying it off contract. I bought it off contract from my local tmobile store for $680!! I'm still in shock recovering from that impulse buy, looking back I could gotten a way batter deal on Craig list. But this awesome phone is slowly helping me forget about my hard earned cash.

Hearing you paid only 214 for the phone kinda piss me off, but at the sometime I still got the phone on day one. If wal mart in Illinois had it I would had been all on it for those prices. Make me wonder why T mobile can't come up those prices themselves

How is this a thread? Yes as it was discussed for the last few weeks; T-Mo is selling the GS3 for $330. You can buy it from Costco and Walmart for much less.
Carry on.

I paid $279.99 through T-Mobile after a $50 mail in rebate. My activation fee/upgrade fee was waived. T-Mobile does charge more for phones but you save money on the plans. Right now I have unlimited Talk/Text/2GB Data a month for $69.99.
I got my phone on the 21st and T-Mobile was the ONLY one in my area to get it from. Walmart/Costco/etc had nothing.

Im going to be paying 450 or 549 for the phone

Yes they are just another division but with better rates/deals.

My first Android Device was from them.
Two HTC G1s with New 2 Yr Contract for FREE!

Check Car Toys out too. For At&t The Note for $179 and GS3 for $149. It may be same for other carriers. They also have free shipping and you can trade in your phone. My trade in value was $119. So I could get a Note for $60 or a GS3 for $30!

that's on a subsidized prepay or something, not a normal contracted plan.

Galaxy s5 for under $13 at Best Buy!

I just upgraded my phone to the s5 at my local best buy in Knoxville, TN. It cost me under $13 for an upgrade. Here is how it worked. I signed up at the beginning of the year for the $50 off a phone if you upgraded at Best Buy. They also have a promotion going now that you can get a $50 gift card that you will get via email like 15 days later (the gave it to instantly). Then they price matched Amazon at $112 and some change. So you take the $112 and subtract the $100 in gift cards and you get my $12. That's an awesome deal if you ask me!
Best Buy will price match up to 14 or 15 days so if you recently purchased one from them you can go back and get some of your money back. Hope this helped someone out.

We have 2 in Knoxville, one will and one won't. They both have always told me over the phone they won't but this makes twice they have done it for me.
I read today that you can trade in any working smartphone and get a minimum $100 at best buy.

It's up to managers discretion. I have 5-6 in my city and 2 of them price match amazon. I'm hoping the S5 Prime will be cheaper on Amazon than Best Buy so I can price Match and use my Best Buy card

On topic of price matching at best buy with amazon the price match fine print CLEARLY states they will price match Amazon as long as its sold by Amazon.
So just print out the ToS and show it to them if they say no.
Works every time for me.

I did the same thing when it came out but paid way more since I got it a few days after it came out now I'm wishing I would have waited.

My "extend your 2 year contract" pricing was $149.99 before tax.
On Sprint.
:crying:

My contact was up on Sprint. Sprint wanted $199. Amazon wanted $99 for renewal. I got it from Amazon. Plus I believe I'm getting a $25 gift card from Amazon after I activate the phone. So, $75 after rebate. Not bad. It ain't as good as $13, but its better than $199!

I know is almost a month old, however I upgraded to the S5 tonight at Bestbuy here in Knoxville, TN. They price matched Amazon (contract phone), and received a $50 gift card from BB...so out the door was $59 after taxes... Not $13, but not bad either.

I went to Best buy because they had the S5 for $99 as an upgrade. I waited till Sunday because it was my only day off, price went back to $199 for Sprint and down to $99 for Verizon. So I asked about $100 for old phones. Girl checked pc and my 3yr old Galaxy S slider was only worth $5. I went to Sprint owned store and paid $199 but felt more like a loyal customer.

Got mine for $99, gave my wife my S4, sold her S3 on Swappa for 190. Someone is not too bright for sure.

I got mine at Best Buy also but they told me they would not price match online stores. Brick and mortar stores with in stock phones only.
