conquereddroiduser Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Im about ready to upgrade, and for the 5th time it looks like Amazon is still offering the best contract prices. Generally $50-$100 less than straight from Sprint. I'm not having any luck finding any new phones on Amazon for Sprint 2 year contracts. (S6, G4, iPhone 6S all missing..). Where are you going to see the deals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My apologies, I'm using a desktop right now. Basically Best Buy offering a minimum of $200 trade-in value for any turned in smartphone towards the purchase of Sprint iPhone 6s/6s Plus on contract.

The same promo was done with the Note5 & Galaxy S6 Plus I jumped on it and grabbed the Note 5. $249 + tax - $200 trade in BB gift card and paid $70 or so out of pocket. 2 year contract but the promo is offered on ALL finance programs on Sprint. Subsidy, Easy Pay & Lease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are you going to see the deals? Hm, they seem to have moved things around since I last checked. But theyre still there, sort of http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-S6-Edge-Sprint/dp/B0134TVNSQ/ref=sr_1_3?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1444244597&sr=1-3&keywords=galaxy+s6&refinements=p_n_feature_two_browse-bin%3A2420629011 http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-S5-White-Sprint/dp/B00IZ1X21K/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1444244635&sr=1-1&keywords=galaxy+s6&refinements=p_n_feature_two_browse-bin%3A2420629011 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Amazon and BB has always worked for me with promos on subsidy. Sprint as of late no bueno on subsidy sales but Lease & Easy Pay are good. For example leasing a G4 is $0 down and no taxes upfront and $18 monthly then loyalty credit of $15 monthly i can lease the G4 for only $3 a month. Best Sprint can do for Legacy Customers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeitup Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Hoping the Best Buy deal with the $200 gift card is still available next month when 3 of my lines are eligible for 24 month upgrade. Iphone Christmas for the family.:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know someone on the same plan and it only allows upgrades through the carrier. I understand the discounts and pricing are better vs a regular plan.

I understand the discounts and pricing are better vs a regular plan. I am not complaining though. I would definitely trade a cheaper plan than a discount on a phone in the long run unless they are on an ED plan with a corporate discount of 25% on 5 lines which at at that point is cheaper per line than SERO.

That is my exact plan. 25% discount and all. Total with taxes is just under $45 per line. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teeitup Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 When I first switched from my old Fair and Flexible I was complaining because ED1500 cost more but they wouldn't allow smartphones on F&F. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeitup Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 That's great! Btw how does one go by in getting a corporate discount 25% Usually through your employer. I think the % discount depends on the volume of employees using Sprint on the discount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Usually through your employer. I think the % discount depends on the volume of employees using Sprint on the discount. I see. Currently my employer gives a discount of 15% and the Federal Credit Union I use gives a 10% but the offset on that is the activation fee or upgrade fee is waived with the Federal Credit Union. I was simply curious on who gives the 25% discount. That's really good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 State Farm Insurance agents get 25%. Still have activation fees though.If only that will trickle down to the state farm insurance customers. That would be great because I'm covered by State Farm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup my bro told me he pays about $45/mo for his line in a 5 line plan. Its funny how some folks harp down on SERO customers when in fact they are not the lowest ARPU customers.

Yeah, I had a SERO for awhile but when they were done tacking on data and premium device fees it wasn't the $30 plan it started out as.

ericdabbs Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Yeah, I had a SERO for awhile but when they were done tacking on data and premium device fees it wasn't the $30 plan it started out as. I know but even a few years ago before this whole "Simple Choice" plan stuff, when people had to pay $70-100 for minutes, data and text messages a la carte separately, you couldn't find anything for $50 postpaid. So yeah it sucked it bumped from $30 to $50 but I still think its worth it and be able to get the high end smartphones. Imagine if you were still stuck on the HTC Touch Pro 2 on faux Android still just to stay at $30. UGH....nothing would get me to go back to those crappy phones.

My wife works for a hospital system that currently gives a 25% discount (up from 23% a year or two ago) so our lines are under her name. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
