Can someone run to their AT&T and get me an AT&T Fuze then put it on ebay to sell it to me? I know that a lot of you guys can get much better price than me. I'm from Montreal and I'll pay for the auction fee and the shipping.
Make me a good offer guy...
some guy from this forum offer me $450, but I haven't heard from him back yet.
????
??????WTF???????
It's not very easy to find people who are interested in making as least money as possible, but perhaps this is worth a shot
Don't know about the Fuze, but I have connections to folks who want to sell the Brooklyn Bridge

WHy don't you take an hour driver over the border...go to a local ATT store and purchase the phone outright???? It will cost approximately $550 after taxes....

There is no AT&T store near Montreal... the closest one is about 4hr drive. I'll be driving 4hr there, and then another 4hr back...
For the gas, and for time I'm spending on top of a $550, it's really not worth it. Also, I'm not even sure that they have in stock or they are willing to sell it to me.
Anyway, I got a deal in Canada... $660 CAD
which is not bad, considering it's saving me all those troubles.
why dont you just order off of the internet?

On the internet, you have to get a plan with it
craigslist.org
Come on man.. majority of the online sites that sell the fuze will let you buy the phone without a contract/plan.. look around. try letstalk.com
So I wired my younger brother the money to pick up my phone in the US and send it back with my grandparents who are there visiting... He went to AT&T today and they denied him the ability to purchase me the phone off contract. He said he tried for a little, but they kept saying that they would not sell it to him off contract. I told him to try and go back if he can, but he might not be able to due to work and my grandparents leaving soon.
Can AT&T actually deny selling the phone off contract? I told him that if he is able to go back, to tell them that it is being sold from AT&T stores for $549.00 and to ask how it is possible for them to deny the sale.
I understand that they dont make money selling phones, but rather the service, but to just deny him is crazy...
Thoughts? Opinions? Suggestions?
Thanks everyone! Have been at this android thing for almost a year and I am still without one...
I have never heard of them denying someone to purchase a phone off contract. Tell him to go to Target or Wal Mart they sell att phones off contract.

I'm not sure if there is one near him unfortunately... I guess I should mention he lives in Boston at the moment, not cool on the part of the AT&T he went to.
Do you happen to know how much Walmart and Target are selling them for?
they can deny anything to anyone. but you can buy it on there website. they dont want to run out and are hoping that this will attract many new contracts so they prefer to sell to new subscribers. my att reps dont care either way and i had the option to buy outright, i shoulda taken that option but it is too late now. im not sure if i can cancel an early upgrade in the first month like a new contract.

about $50-$100 more as far as i can tell but some regions are jacking up the price even in the at store. i think it is $579 on att's website. my store is $549 but some stores may be $600 or more
Is he a ATT customer. It is true they wont sell to non customers and they dont have to.
Crazy how some places jack up the price like that. The reason I cannot order it online is because I would have to pay a 16% tax for it to get through customs here in the Dominican Republic. So i have been trying to coordinate with friends and family that have been in the US and this was my big chance so say.
Pretty annoyed about this, seems like everytime I try to get a phone i am unsuccesful for one reason or another. Already had the issue with the G2X not being quad-band.
I hope he was able to go back this evening and get it... Not sure what to do next if that doesn't work out.
Ya. Inspire was $399 off contract at att. Went to buy at best buy because I had a 10% coupon and they wanted $599 for the thing! No.thanks! I'd call corporate and complain about the store. Either way its bad customer service for them to turn you down like that. "Can I give you $550 for this item" rep "no" ... "only $199" doesn't make sense. I'd raise hell. I realize they make money off the data plans and.contracts and how att works but either way you look at it that's poor customer relations and incorrect information directly from a.corporate store.

Best buy will always price match. I have done it with many off contract phones there.

I don't think the infuse is only 399 off contract anywhere. I just looked online on att.com and its 550. If you can show me where to get it for 400 bucks I'm buying right now.

Off topic - I hate you because you have a Transformer and I don't.
I'm not sure I'd plunk down that much for the infuse anyway. It has the same gps issues as the captivate and nexus s phone. To me I'd buy an iPhone and have your brother send it along with your grandparents or even an atrix. I like my phones to work right.

the gps if far better than the galaxy s phones. trust me on that. it can use altered settings as it has quirks but the gps is not the same hardware or drivers and is by far improved

As long as you have a active account with AT&T then they will sell you a phone out of contract or no commitment pricing. If you don't have a account they don't have to sell it to you

+++ Inventory is thin right now. They would rather sell that phone with a contract, which they probably did short after. Or if not, at least sell to a current customer.

Do you happen to know what store in Boston he went to? I live in Boston and was able to buy one from the Downtown Crossing store with no issues. Just be nice to the AT&T reps and don't look/act like a grey market reseller

Yes, AT&T rep told me that first couple of weeks no AT&T store will sell a new phone without contract.
You have to go to bestbuy for that. I bought mine there for $599 without contract.
Another option is online purchase from AT&T's website for $549 without contract, but there may be some issues with that.

It comes with a Simple Mobile sim card already activated on the $60 plan. there's 17 days left, next billing is 8/8/11. Its on ebay
MOD EDIT-eBay SALES ARE NOT ALLOWED AT XDA.

Question
You want to swap it for another Service provider? Why don't you just pay to get the phone simunlocked?
As for the ebay, you don't paint a very good picture my friend, no offence, but flea bay is not the best way to buy goods, infact it's kind of a rip off and a lot of people have a hard time because of the likes of flea bay, i understand your trying to get rid of your sensation but it doesn't look good m8.
If all you want to do is change providers then get it unlocked.

So you have great feedback, which is your main selling point as to why people can trust you, but the account isn't yours meaning the feedback isn't yours (or at least nobody else can verify it).
Yeah...
Anywho, wrong section. Selling is only allowed in the marketplace buuutttt...eBay sales are not allowed.
Thread closed.
So I am thinking about starting a contract with T-Mobile because they get decent service where I live and from what I have heard they are cheap. So my question is when I go to set up an account with them will I need to have any cash to sign up? I am broke till payday but really need a phone. If anyone knows I would really appreciate the help. Oh and also I just need 1 line if you have an account with just one line on it could you please tell me what plan you use and what your average bill is. Thanks in advance!
If you sign-up and get a free phone, you will only need a credit card. This way they can charge $1 to it to make certain you're worthy. Of course this is online where you will find the best deals. The stores usually do not have very good deals.
Also I was looking through the Market forum today and found another website http://www.wirefly.com that is seemingly legit to me (I checked my upgrade eligibility and it worked as it should). The deals there are great.
Hope this helps. BTW... T-Mobile has the worst customer care ever, and Asurion, their insurance company, are thieves. Just another FYI.

Ah sucks to hear about T-Mobile I will definetily be checking out wirefly
There's rumor at my wife's work which is an at&t call center that they will be waiving etf tomorrow in some promotion if you tell them you can't afford the bills. I will post back tomorrow when i hear of it actually being Done. Just thought i would share that in case anyone wants out.
ATT added a .61 cent admin fee. Now the question is will they let you out of contract because of it.
