There's an AT&T HTC One X on eBay that I wanna bid on, but I can't find the retail price of this phone anywhere. Amazon.com has it listed at $729.99, but that is ridiculous. I looked at wireless.att.com but they only show the upgrade price. Anyone have a better source?
It was listed at $549 without contract at my local store.

Does your store have a display phone by any chance? I've heard some do, but I haven't checked mine.

I can confirm $550. I work for AT&T and for Android phones, the no-contract price is generally the upgrade price plus $350.

My store (ATT in Sonora, CA) does have the one X on a kiosk, as well as some other beats junk. Played for it for a few minutes in the store, and I must say, It's smoooooth as silk my friend.
None of the stores around me have one on display. It really sucks.

Amazon also has it for $549 no contract also. It's best for some since they don't charge tax for certain states.
Go to their Amazon Wireless page. If you use their regular site, it will just list the marketplace price.

I must have been in the wrong place then because the page I saw said $729.99 and $149.99 on contact.
But yeah that's why I thought about eBay; even if I have to pay full price there won't be a $36 upgrade fee or taxes. I'll do Amazon if this auction gets outta hand, but right now it's only at $250 so we'll see.
It's under the Wireless Amazon site. Here is the white one

So they're completely lying about the list price to make it look as if they're saving you money.

Not sure if anyones noticed, but its 199 on the site. I paid 250 on 1/5 for it and renewed my contract. My question is what are the chances of seeing 50$ back since ive had it for 20 days? I swore i asked the in store sales guy about this scenario and he directed me to call att for a refund. called and the guy pretty much shut me down and said no. having a manager call me back tomorrow but has anyone been in this similar situation?
I called AT&T and was told I'd have to take it to store where they promptly credited my account $50. As long as you're within their 30-day price guaranty you shouldn't have any trouble. It sounds like you're well within the period.
I just bought mine today for $199

I also got mine from AT&T on January 5, and it was $150. The $200 it shows as now is a price increase. Maybe a regional inconsistency?
If you're within 30 days, you should be able to get a refund for the $50, but it's odd to me that you got charged $100 more than me when I got it at the same time as you.

im guessing so, its 199 all around here.
so fyi i did have to go to the store and they credited me 50. thanks all!
Add me to the list of those who paid $149; also purchased on the 5th and agree, must only be certain regions.
I think the price varies as I also paid $149 a few weeks ago.

Looks like a lot of good AT&T phones are real cheap on Amazon right now. And AT&T is selling refurb Galaxy S IIs for $10.

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.

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.

Yes, it will. Nexus phones have always and will always be unlocked.
Best Buy's prices on this phone(as well as some overpriced stuff like cables) make me feel much much better about using them as a showroom. I'd be willing to pay $50-$100 more to get the phone a couple weeks earlier(I lost my phone Halloween) but the price point they're pulling is ridiculous.

Radio Shack ?
Why would Best Buy sell the 16gb phone for $799 ????? They sell Chromecast at the regular $35 price, same as the Play Store.
What's wrong with these people ?? Worst Buy is damn right.
I was looking forward to find the N5 in a brick and mortar store, does anyone have an idea when it will be available at Radio Shack, and what the price will be there ?
BTW I think a ~$25 premium over the Play Store is fair, ie $375 for the 16, $425 for the 32gb version. No more than that.
Walmart > Best Buy, they sell iPads and iPhones for LESS than Apple does !

Best Buy lowered the price to $449 for the 16GB version now. Better than $799 but still too much IMO, given the google price is $349.

That's $449 for the 16GB model, not 8GB, so it's $50 more than Google Play. The 8GB model is $349 from Google Play and Best Buy doesn't even list that one, and of course the $449 16GB is listed as a Sprint model (doesn't matter since it's unlocked regardless).
If you just gotta get one right freakin' now then that's probably the only option given the shipping times and inventory shortages at Google Play - but then again it says November 8th availability too, bleh.
There is no 8gb nexus 5. On Google play its $349 for 16gb, $399 for 32gb.

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.

Hello everybody. Want to share my experience for anybody that pre-ordered their v20 through AT&T and was planning on getting their $200 trade in credit. Just got back from AT&T store and process was pretty simple. I took in a old iphone they checked it out, asked for my v20 imei, then they gave me an instant $200 credit in my bill. They also said I could've used the credit instantly to buy accessories at the store, or wait to get some type of card that I could use later.

You don't have to go in store, but I believe its easier and quicker. You don't need an email to go get credit in store. Just tell them you pre-ordered and are there for the credit. I couldn't find a cheap prepaid phone to turn in. The cheapest I found was a AT&T iphone 4 on eBay for $50, that AT&T valued at $5 trade in credit.

I don't know if it's the same at every store, but the rep usually gets some form of commission on accessories.

My local AT&T store said I had to use all $200 on accessories in store and seemed shocked that I chose to keep the phone instead of trading it for a bunch of accessories I didn't want or need.
