Does anyone know what the upgrade price at best buy will be? I want to know if I should cancel my preorder if it above $150 and go somewhere else. Thanks
Shoot...best buy and best buy mobile here in Jacksonville told me they don't have it for preorder. Screw em.

i'm friends with several at the mobile department, if it can be done they'll do it. if not, i'll wait until they have it in stock, return mine to at&t, and buy it there. i like black tie that much...although i've yet to use it.
I'm wondering if they'll price match radio shack at $49.99. I'm hoping they will of course. I used to work at Best Buy, so I hopefully may be able to convince a BB Mobile employee to price match.

No they can't price match online prices, only if a local store has that price and it's in stock

I also went to a best buy in stl and I ask the best buy employee, so when's the htc one x coming out?! I think it's going to be another month atleast. And that was Sunday he said this. Lol the store I went into was a best buy mobile store ONLY! But didn't know they would price match or I would of gone with them.
Still no word on the BB price? They usually are the cheapest around. I guess either way I could price match to $150, but I'd be surprised if they didn't already beat it.
I believe from when I did my pre order that their price is 200 for a upgrade. It should be the same price as ATT maybe as low as 150.00.
I went with them as I signed up for that free 50 dollar gift card with a upgrade earlier this year so that on top of the fifty I used to pre order and some other gift cards means I will be paying about 75 for it.
As for the info I would wager that they will send out a official email around Friday saying it will be ready for pick up on Sunday. That is what happened with my Galaxy Note I had on pre order.

You should but they would probably want to charge you a restocking fee of $35. Maybe they can price match it for you. Best Buy offers great sales from time to time and they don't charge restocking fees so I buy my phones there instead lol
Just got back from Best Buy with an extra $50. I like their 30 day matching program. Thanks for the info.
Its been 35 days as i bought it on launch day....will best buy still do best price match ?

Sent from my infused machine
Got my infuse from wal-mart today. showed them the online add from best buy and they gave me my phone for $99.
I bought my infuse about 2 weeks ago, I always buy my phones from bestbuy but for some reason only AT&T would upgrade since my actual date was June 26th. So I went back to AT&T and told them bestbuy had a special for the infuse,at the time they were selling for $150, which AT&T gladly matched. The girl who was cashing me out told me accessories were on sale, buy 2 get 1 free, I told her I didn't have any cash for that right now. A few minutes later she tells me to go pick out a case, so I did ($35) she than walked across the store and grabbed a set of 3 screen protectors and a car charger, she than asked me which id want, a blue tooth head set or a set of panasonic wireless blue tooth ear buds, I took the ear buds. Next she tells me "shhh, don't tell any body" the ear buds are sick, ill be streaming music at work walking around the building why my phone is at my desk, not too mention I can pause, play, skip, and answer my phone and they retail for $100. The stuff I for for free was worth more than what I paid for the phone, so id feel a little guilty going back in and asking for an addition $50 price match, but I might. Lol

I ordered mine from costco online so I could have 90 days to exchange for the Attain if it does come out soon... I just emailed them to see if they would match the price. I'll let you guys know what happens.
Price has been slashed
32gb $499 to $149
16gb $399 to $99
best buy will honor the price! Stores open you may want to be there for one.

Rumor is now going around that BB is shipping their 200k units back to HP. Guess I'll find out in the morning if I can find one anywhere (although there are plenty of other stores that could have it).
Does anyone know if Netflix is on this (homebrew/exploit/etc.) this would a partial dealbreaker (although I already bought it)?

office depot for 129.99
I just bought one at office Depot. I hope they will price match for the 99 dollars. I better not get screwed on a device I never thought about buying until it was practically free. If android gets on this thing I'd be ok with the 130 price tag.
Does anyone have any experience with office Depot? I usually just use amazon but it's sold out there.

walmart has it listed at $99 for 16gb unit and $149 for 32gb unit. Online stocks are sold out, but you can site to store if a store in your area has one.
I just went to BB in Vegas and was told they are sending them all in to HP.
So I called office depot and everyone is sold out in Vegas. Bit should get shipments in Monday before opening.

Office Depot: 2 stores. Both sold out by 10 am (Sat). Manager in one store confirms no chance of restock.
Staples: Sold out in 2 stores by 9 am.
Best Buy: 2 stores both displaying signs of item being sold out.
Costco: 2 stores. Again one store manager confirms receiving email last night from Costco corporate to send all stock back to HP.

If you have a defective phone, you will now it within 1 week of purchase, especially us with this new phone, nobody has been putting it down and not playing with it. After a few weeks with the phone, you wont be returning it, lol.
Any other advantages by buying at Best Buy over ATT other than the longer return window?
So now the S IV has been rooted. People have had their hands on it for a little while.
eBay sellers still show pre-orders. Can't find a shop with stock since the phone hasn't been released.

Does BestBuy have an advantage over AT&T? I am asking because I am trying to decide if I want to go through AT&T to buy mine or another brick & mortar store. I'm not going to buy online because I want to be able to physically see and hold what I will be buying in this case. I plan on buying it at full price, but that might change if I can get a deal on a plan if I subsidize it through AT&T.

They usually charge less. Also if you get their warranty, it's much better. Covers everything and you don't have to pay for a replacement or repair.
AND, the next time you purchase a phone, they will buy the old one back. Usually not as much as you'd get on eBay for it, but could help defray the costs of your next phone.

Thanks for the reply. It sounds like a pretty good place to buy from but I am a little unsure if BestBuys is going to even be in business in 2 or three years when I go to get another phone. I guess its going to come down to how much less they can sell them for versus AT&T.

Argh!!! I had to go through the Verizon help center agent, and she did try to help me by referring me to Best Buy and using their online purchasing system. I live 40 miles north of Tulsa and "running into the local cellphone store" is not on the bucket list.
guess I will have to be glad that all of the upgrade fees were revoked, Best Buy gave me a value card towards future purchase.... Didn't match your deal, but better than going online at Verizon.
