[Q] How much did you pay for your Fuze?

I'm thinking of jumping on the wagon and was wondering if you guys would kindly share how much you paid for your Fuze, I have been asking several stores and even with premier account the price is 299.99 after rebate with 2yr contract (plus some upgrade fee and of course sales tax) in total would be close to 400.
Please let me know if and how you could get it for less than what I was quoted for. And is there any official statements from AT&T that lists benefits of having premier account?
Thanks

I was 269 out the door with a 50 mail in rebate i think he messed up (I am not premier that I know of)

i started a new 2 year contract, was leaving tmo for att.
its 369.99 if you get it bundled with the car charger, case, bluetooth headset, and maybe some more trinkets i don't remember.
then its 349.99 if you leave all that off.
then -50 with the text or data or something like that rebates...

he definitely messed up...but good for you though~
also, i got it for ~440 aftertax before mail-in rebate. I was only able to get an "early upgrade" with $75 off retail price. Manager was nice enough to waive the $18 upgrade fee for me though. Every bit counts

Bah. Lucky dude who's rep marked it down $100. Where do you live? lol
I was unlucky =/ tax was a lil over 8%!!! :O
Came out to $391 before rebate T.T I'm a return it and see if I can buy it from a city that has less tax.

Baught it online @ Premier for $388 Including $18 upgrade fee..I also think tax came around to $24.
Shipping was Fedex 2day for free. Doubt I will get it this week though.

really!? gas is going to cost you more than that tax difference, unless you live near border of WA and OR, then i'd see a reason to do that.

Mine was $367 shipped from AT&T Premier site. There was no upgrade fee, and then I have the $50 rebate to add to it. Bought it this morning, it shipped out this afternoon - comes in on Thursday!! I waited over 2 months to upgrade my phone as I wanted this, or the Sony X1. I couldn't wait any longer, so I gave into this phone. I can't wait.

I think a ~1-1.5% difference would make me drive. Besides, if it's in the way to work, it doesn't matter right?

Mine was $259.99 before the $50.00 MIR. I went into a corporate store in Kansas City Area, and was told they were discounting it $100.00. I asked why and was told: "I am not sure, perhaps revenue or longevity". I didn't ask any more questions and certainly didn't want them to reconsider.

AT&T Authorized Dealer...
Hey all,
I stopped by on Monday afternoon at an AT&T authorized dealer in Pembroke Pines, FL (South Florida). They had the only gotten in one fuze that afternoon which they sold me.
They charged me $300 plus tax, so it was $318 total, plus the $50 rebate when I send it in.
Not quite as good as $269 before rebate, but I didn't want to say otherwise either when they quoted me that price.

mine came out to 387 after taxes and now i gotta mail off the $50 rebate

I paid 349.99 + 24.15 tax = 374.14 - 50.00 rebate = 324.14
I want the 100.00 discount some of you got. I wonder if I call and complain if they will credit me? I love complaining.

just ordered mine about 2hrs ago off the at&t wireless website.
$374.49 w/ 2yr agreement ( contract renewal )
kept my unlimited data plan and unlimited txt.

Yep ordered it about 6pm est. Hopefully it gets here friday. I guess that's dependent on when it's shipped also.

I just re-uped my account and purchased the Fuze for $299 online befor rebate. Total came to $327. I'm not really worried about the rebate at this point. Just received the tracking info and it will be here Thursday the 13th.

Just go to bestbuy.com and click on the weekly ads, it still shows the 249.99 price there, make sure to click on the right ads, the one on the right shows 299.99.

I don't know where the "right" ads are, as the ads to the right show 299, as you say.

If the phone is released after the 2/26 they don't have to honor the $249 price tag, thats when the ad expires.

You can still get it at vzw for $249 after the 26th.

Best Buy does not pricematch anything when rebates are involved.
Best Buy also reserves the right to make price adjustments.
Everyone just sit tight and wait for the official announcement....

bestbuy will honor the 249 price! wont say it again! (for pre orders)

I assume its too late to preorder? Altough its not out so...
Then again the ad says 249 after savings. Which I assume is the instant rebate or the upgrade savings?
I guess if you put down $50 and get a gift card of $50, then you still have to pay $200 when you pick it up or $250?

I went to BB in Lafayette, LA last night and was still able to pre-order. Got the 50$ card with it too. Give your local a call. They may have some.

Pretty sure it's release price is going to be 249.00 whether it's release this week or next.

Went by BB today.
I picked up a copy of the ad just in case. The sales guy said the phones are locked up but not yet allowed to sell any. He showed me the boxes. He had no idea when he would be allowed, he said call every day.
I also asked about the preorder and price. He said it will be 249 this week for sure if he can sell them. He said he knew about the 299 change, but he thought it meant it will be 299 with a $50 gift card (instant rebate) bringing it "back to 249". As to preorder, he said the $50 you pay up front gets you a gift card but does not go towards the price. So when you come back you still owe 249 but can use the $50 gift card. So in the end you pay a total of 249 and tax, 50 up front for a gift card, and 200 more and the gift card when you pick it up.
So hopefully in the next couple of days we can start getting them. Although I feel Wirefly and Amazon will have them for less, maybe 149-199 and no tax. We'll see.

G2x free during midnight sale

Best buy is having a midnight sale and they have posted the G2X free w/ contract.
Typed on my CyanoSavaged SuperEvo.

And Amazon has it for $.01. Sucks for me because I just spent $79 on mine through Amazon yesterday, but at least I'll have it on Friday.

kind of makes me wish i didnt shell out 200 on opening day :/

yeah and i bought mine a week ago... and amazon's FAQ says...
Do you have a price guarantee?
If a price changes on an item you have already purchased, we are not able to refund the difference. We do, however, consistently work to maintaining competitive prices on everything we carry.

if it's before 30 days you can return it to tmobile

Paid $333 for mine from T-Mobile.
- BFL

how does upgrades through best buy work? or amazon for that matter.

Best Buy has a price guarantee. 30 day price match. If they didn't you could just return it and get it from Amazon. It's better for best Buy to just match prices.
Anybody know how long that sale is going on for?

Does the best buy deal apply to upgrades? Just got a new 2 year contract and have an upgrade for my line available. Also, Amazon.com shows 79.99 for new plan and 119.99 for upgrades. How are you getting .01?

i was just about to purchase from costco online for 79.99. amazon wireless shows the same price as costco...

be happy i paid $500 for mine from T-Mo (but no contract) if you sign a contract your price for service per month is higher and I have found I get much better customer service with out a contract.

Damn! I jumped the gun early today and pre-ordered through Radio Shack.
Anyone know if Amazon Wireless taxes cells phones shipped to California? I know they don't tax anything else.

Has anyone tried to get a price match in one of the at&t stores for the $149 instead of $199. Also I am a premier member will they charge activation fee if ordered through amazon.

Probably the phone is already selling out on initial quantities... try att or elsewhere.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA

I would assume it says backordered because they dont actually have them in stock as of yet

So, what's the deal with keeping your existing your unlimited data plan? When I try to purchase through AmazonWireless, it asks me to pick a new data plan as well as a new texting plan (niether of which is the one that I'm on now)? Anybody know? (I think I saw something about it in another thread, but I can't find it now).
Thanks,
Billy

I want to preorder thru amazon, but the only problem is lets say your phone has the yellow screen you would have to mail it back off to amazon to get a replacement thus making the preorder worthless, but the with the data dilemma you may to call them about it

Best buy so far is the only place not advertising it. I have an employee holding a white one for me and showing her the radio shack ad she reduced it down to 149 for me

Why pay to preorder it if you gonna get it 3 days after release date, if I were you I would just go to a store and pick it up on the 6th

Sometimes Amazon is amazing . There is a possibility that the phone may arrive before the expected delivery date, AND
in CA the state tax on retail (~9% on $579) is a deal killer for me.
Have waited this long , might as well wait 3 more days to save on the tax

Verizon Galaxy S3 for 149.99 at Amazon

I'm an existing Verizon customer and just upgraded to GS3 for 150.00 from Amazon. This is my second GS3. I think it's a great deal for this top of the line phone.

Good thing I didn't buy the phone yet since I'll most likely be taking this offer instead of paying an extra 50 bucks.

Just remember, if you use amazon you get into a second contract basically stating you cannot changes phones on that line for 6 months!

If you have an unlimited data plan and you try to order from Amazon you can only upgrade to the new All Share BS. So if you want to keep your current plan and pay for the new data packages you can't use them. For example I have a 450 minute plan and all I needed to do was change data packages with VZW but Amazon couldn't do that.

Thanks for the heads up!

I got mine from radio Shack for $160 after tax but don't forget about the $30 upgrade charges so I really only saved $20 after taxes

I got my 16Gb for $150 from Best Buy. I went in looking for the G'Nex but the guy told be best buy wasn't stocking them anymore but he would give me a GS3 for $150. I wasn't happy about it (I REALLLY wanted the G'Nex) But I'm more than happy with my purchase.
