I was planning on trading in my Evo 4G anyways and holding onto my Evo 3D as a backup. Too bad the extra $50 is with a new line of service.

I pre-ordered through Wirefly, any chance I could take advantage of this? The phone will be on a brand new line on a family plan. Sprint lists my Samsung Captivate buy-pack at $62 and with an extra $50 the Evo 4G LTE will have cost me nearly nothing out of pocket.

They're offering $90 for a 3D. I told the rep "Didn't you guys offer up to $150 for the OG EVO on the 3D release? Hell, ima classifields this one..."

Yeah I don't see why not it will just be applied to your bill or accessories tho if u want.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium

it changes every day .. the other day it was 70 for the evo and that was the highest price over all other phones even the view.
edit: https://secure.sprintbuyback.com/cns/select its still 70 for the recycle of the evo

Gracias! Hopefully I get my Evo 1337 in time so I can get the extra cash.

Other than the hassle of ebay or CL, is there a reason to use the trade in instead?

www.swappa.com is a good site for selling too.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk 2

^^Have you actually used swappa.com? Sounds promising; only $10 commission fee + paypal fees... Also looks like the buyer picks up the commission fee instead of it being deducted from the sale price.

I sold my g2 on swappa. It was easy and great. Much easier than eBay.

Evo 3d price?

Was curious if anyone has any price information on evo 3d with the 150$ discount. If no official info best guesses would be appreciated.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
What's the point? Your guess is as good as anyone elses.
So what's your guess and we can play hot and cold......
the price should be $200
logically just look at the price of the new nexus on sprint. evo 3d should be somewhere between that price and $100 more. But a guess is just a guess. Wait a few weeks for an official announcement
I predict 249.
Tapa tapa tapa
It's going to be at LEAST $250 with new contract. Could be more.
New contract - $199.
2 year upgrade - $249.

Yeah 250$ was my guess as well.

The Epic was $250 when it came out. And it was not that advanced of a phone when it came out when you compare how groundbreaking and revolutionary the EVO 3D is.
Guessing (and hoping) $249 with new 2 yr contract or after $150 upgrade and rebate.

But the Evo 4g was gorundbreaking upon its release and was $199. I see your logic but if you are trying to imply the E3D will be more than $250 based on its specs compared to what is currently on the market because of the epic.... well apples and oranges
$200, $250, or $300 (see droid charge). Doesn't really matter what we guess though, since we don't have any say in the pricing. If you just want to know how much money to save up, then prepare for the worst case scenario.

save up $500. Then you can get the phone plus some accessories. Don't forget the extra battery!!

Samsung is proud of their devices and feel they need to charge more for them. Case in point? See Droid Charge. One of the many reasons why I'll not own another one.

If you are eligible for a 2 year upgrade then you should be paying the same price as a new customer.
The Sensation is $199 with a new contract at Target mobile. Would not surprise me one bit if the 3D follows suit.

^^^^ This.
Might be 249 like the Epic with 2 year, but more likely will be 299ish because of the 3D.
I'm going to have to buy it full price, so i'm hoping its not more than 600.
199$ new contract I heard but I'm adding second line with two year contract

Thats a striking contradiction. You wanted to be rid of your Epic, but you are gonna get an Epic 2?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
Why buy a used one? With all the discounts and offers available at Sprint, just about anyone can get one for $50... many times FREE. Are you concerned about the contract?
Mike
Wellllll, first order of business, not a troll thread. I am genuinely interested. Secondly, I can't get any other offers because I only qualify for the $75 off credit on Sep 1st. I also have the Epic, it is breaking and so instead of paying the cash for insurance I would rather put it towards the 3d, which I want... I will look on craigslist and elsewhere. I just would rather buy from xda member because I feel like I could trust that the phone was taken care of. Thanks for all the replies.
There are 3 for sale in the market I believe
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
Do what I did. Add a new line, trade in your epic and get the 3d at the discount price minus the trade in. Then put the new line on seasonal hold. They kinda of goofed mine up and I think took the new line off ha-ha.
I got a 3d for 50 bucks and I'll be paying like 100 or 150 to have the line taken off if it does show up on my act.
Radio shack was offering a trade in, was to be 100 dollars but hey gave me 165 for ny EVO shift.

Epic 2???? Let me put it a different way. Wanted to be rid of the extra bulk of the physical keyboard which I never use and to have a slightly larger screen. Also something a bit faster. After getting the 3d, I actually love it, but I still may use the upgrade for the gs2.

Well this way doesn't involve trading in an EVO 4G.
That 50$ offer is really making me ponder upgrading from my Hero, but can't decide if I want to wait for the GSII Epic Touch to drop in price instead.

I got my 3d for free technically. My local Walmart has it for 98 bucks and at the time (i think theyre still doing this) they are giving 100 dollar gift cards to anyone that gets a smartphone... So basically they paid me 2 bucks to take it off their hands. Being that this is my second one i was scared itd be hboot 1.5 but apparently back home no one buys sprint phones because coverage is spotty at best..... So i ended up getting it with hboot 1.3
And to they guy debating on epic touch or 3d... Id recommend the 3d if you like custom roms. There are a lot more options with roms, kernels, and overclocking with the 3d. I had it and wasnt overly impressed except for the gorgeous display. Damn i love those amoleds.

That is probably exactly why my brother just picked up a 3D for $49.99 from the Sprint Corporate strore here with hboot 1.40!
yeah i had to jump on this offer also. I just couldnt let it pass, I would have kicked myself in the ass.
Don't you have to renew your contract though? I mean it's not like you can just buy the phone for that price without renewing or signing a new contract....?

Is it worth it?

At Besy buy today, and see you get $50 off bringing it to $150, then he says trade in the evo 3d and get $100 more off. So im asking a stupid question and should know the answer but want to ask people that have the phone already. Would I be crazy to pass this phone up for $50?
That is a really good deal. If you liked your Evo 3D you will hopefully love this phone!
I would say GO FOR IT but I am a little biased as an existing owner
definitely.. night and day between those two phones. (I owned a evo 3d too)
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Im gunna throw the orginal sprint RUU on there and take it in and trade it, he said I didnt need to lock it so I think thats pretty fair. Now If I can get this rom to dlownload quicker we will be in good shape lol
Being a evo 3d owner and og evo I defenetrly think is a step up, specially when it comes to camera, screen, battery and software

It's worth more at BB if you have the Buy Back program. They gave me $350 for my Epic Touch. If u dont have Buy Back I think that is accurate. Radio Shack gives even less. You can/should definitely get more for it elsewhere like Craigslist. But it is a major step up from the 3D in every aspect. Only thing it lacks is removable battery but the battery life so far has been awesome!

I came from an EVO 3D, and I couldn't be any happier. This phone is legit, for sure.

Evo LTE on back order

Went to BB to swap out my phone due to problems with power button, etc. Geek Squad said phone was on back order for an indeterminate time. But, they were more than willing to give me a pos loaner phone for $150 till they received them.

I'm reading through all of these responses, and nothing besides the last response seems relevant to my original post. Best Buy offered me no upgrades or swaps or anything. They sent me over to Geek Squad whom is no in-charge of black tie protection plans. They offered me the Epic as a "loaner" phone while I waited for a replacement off back order. Everyone is talking about Sprint, etc. Sprint told me flat-out, they are not touching my phone, either Best Buy or HTC I talk to.

Had to take mine in to BB in august they were OOS and offered a GS3 or Optimus G. I chose to wait though the GS4 was out and i knew the G2 was coming soon, no sense in getting a new old phone. Upgrade in Feb so i can wait on next years crop of phones especially if we really get the update to 4.3 and sense 5 I can hold off till all the phones are announced.

I get my phones from bb and have their black tie insurance. Ive had my lte replaced 3 times for damage already at no extra charge from bb and i received them all within 3 days. I used to have the 3d which i also got replaced 3 times by them at no extra charge within 3 days each time. I got my lte because the last time i broke my 3d they were oos so instead of giving me a g2 they upgraded me at no cost and without using my upgrade. I had to get a loaner about 5 months ago from them when i needed a replacement and it was only $50, which i got back when i returned it. Dont know why the op is having so much trouble but ive had nothing but great experiences every time and have nothing but good things to say about black tie insurance.
