Sell OG epic to sprint.??. - Epic 4G General

Sprint wants to buy my epic from me for a whole $42. What you guys think.?.
My screen is messed up (static lines all across the bottom half of screen) and they are back ordering me a refurb one.. Should get it in a few days.
Also, my upgrade is September 1st.. I'm debating between the sgs3 and the htc evo.. Hmm

You should just etf for 100 and upgrade today. 100-42=58, so 58+199=257, which is probably worth it. Only 50 more and you upgrade today. Cancel the backorder.
That's just my opinion though. Not sure if you have to pay the deductible on the backordered epic. If so, definitely etf.

He doesn't have to etf. He can pay $50 for early upgrade with how close he is, like I did. So $50 - $42 + $ of device he upgrades to. All in all he pays $8 extra to upgrade now.

I thought I read that sprint got rid of the early upgrade program. From what I read, even if its a day before your upgrade, you have to etf.

Unfortunately since mobile odin is not available on our device yet, you need a computer.
And just to warn you about walmart, I have never bought from them, but Sprint may not support you if you buy from them rather than sprint. They may not fix your device if something happens to it, depending on how nice the associate is and what store you go to. Also, if you change your contract after 30 days and before 180 days (6 months), walmart will charge you 375 I think.

The service guy said they use to buy back our epics for $60.. He almost sold me right there..lol..
I wonder how much best buy would give us for our epics.?.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda app-developers app

I think fully-working ones are $54, at least according to the associates at my store and the website.
Not sure about bestbuy.
Just make sure before you buy from a 3rd party retailer, read the terms and conditions to decide if the initial price difference is worth it, and read reviews from people to see if they got screwed or not.

10-4 on that xbox.. Thanks for all the input.. I will definitely search around for others experience..

You have to pay to reset your upgrade, but it's based on how far into your contract you are. At how close he is he would only pay $50 like I did. And the offer for a fully working Epic is $42. I just did all of this this month when I got my Nexus.
Sent from my AOSP Android 4.1.1 Galaxy Nexus

Best buy does price match so if you take a picture of the price on the gs3 and take it there you can get the gs3 for 150.00 that is what I am going to be doing.

I'm here now talking to them and was just told they go off early upgrade eligibilty not the amount of it... so even with only the 75 upgrade I can still walk out of here with this phone for 199.99 just like new contract! So just fyi for anyone interested

Are you talking about at Sprint or Best Buy? Also since they are doing away with the Premiere program you will be with that phone for 20 months. It seems like a good phone but just seen a glimpse of the Galaxy III for 2012 and may just wait. Anxious to see what the Devs will do with Gingerbread source code.
Are you going for it?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
No I'm not getting it but was curious how they would handle the 75 upgrade as sprint no longer let's you get gold status as of 10-1 as of my talk with them earlier.. I had my eyes on the nexus prime or new quad core phones in 1st 1/4 next year. My 150 upgrade isn't till 8/1/12 btw

Personally Im probably going to wait a bit and see if there are any issues with the phone. I've made the mistake of buying from the first run before.

You know they are changing it to 20 months instead of 22. Mine was July but will change to May after the new policy takes effect.

Pretty sure since yyour current contract was signed before the change, it'll stay 22 months. Your NEXT contract will entitle you to the 20month upgrade.

No since I was gold and they changed it to silver and now dropping premiere altogether so apparently this is a benefit not guaranteed by contract.

Same exact boat ride here - signed up for Sprint slightly more than a year ago when the Epic first released. The wife and I are starting to see our phones show signs of age and both want to upgrade to the new touch. But not for $500+ each!!

Our phones aren't too far away from seeing CM7 and the Nexus Prime may even be in Sprint's near future. I'm personally not too worried about needing to jump the failboat that the Epic is yet lol.

I'm gonna wait for the prime, the Touch seems to be a very nice phone but is not really that big of a ideal, first thing doesn't have kb and second I'm done waiting for updates. Hopefully the prime comes to sprint and have all the goodies the Nexus S plus more

Traded Vibrant for Galaxy S2

Just traded my vibrant at Target for 90 bucks and they are having a sale on galaxy s2 for 99.99 so with tax I paid 15.99 for the phone. Its for new and upgrade. Thought I would share.

Sweet deal! I didnt know Target took trade ins on phones. Where was it at?
Sounds SWEET!
Now time to convince T-mobile for an early upgrade. Any ideas? I'm not a very good debater.
Great deal!
Ahh... I envy the US market so much. Here in Brazil a sgs2 costs at least 17 times more than what Target was selling. And nobody does decent tradeins here.
LUCKY GUY!
I went to my Target and bestbuy and they pretty much told me to **** off because a deal like that is impossible haha gotta love the american attitude.

In order to "upgrade" you need to essentially extend your contract right?
Edit..
Never mind I just re-read the OP.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
so I guess what it comes down is extend the contract now and get a Galaxy 2 (for almost free) or wait till it expires to resign and get a Galaxy 3? Probably will wait if that's the case.
Yeah that's usually the case.

My question is: I have the 1000 minutes Classic Family and an upgrade on my line. Am I eligible for this offer? (I also have unlimited text + 5GB)
I called a store rep and he said this is only for Unlimited Classic and Value plans. But then again he said he hasn't been notified of the sale yet.
So you still gotta pay the fee up front right? What about online? No upfront fee for that or still? Im eligable for full upgrade but was waiting about one more week for my tax return and i dont wanna miss this but dont have any for upfront fee...

Picking up a GS3 from Verizon tomorrow. Sad to leave this awesome Sprint community and my first smartphone that actually lasted me the entire length of the contract. Also kinda sad that I'm gonna have to keep track of data and hope for workarounds with the Verizon version of the device. But I'll be saving money by jumping back onto my family plan (now that they all have data too, only gonna cost me $40 instead of $75 by myself on Sprint) and the improved signal and service should be nice as well. Thanks to all the developers and members here for doing some AWESOME stuff with the Epic 4G for sure!
I have a fun fact for you "upgraders". Your S3 is going to be new, shiny, and exciting. For us late bloomers who got the epic a year after you did, well, let's just say the LTE quad cores with unreleased swag and EPIC upgrades will make you butthurt. So there!!!!! Yes, I might be an idiot.

LMAO!!! thanks for your honesty dude
I got my white price matched with absolutely no issues, try it out... also I am returning the s III and waiting out for the Photon Q ... I thought I could do without the keyboard, but I miss it too much. I am not as productive with the virtual keyboard as I am with a regular keyboard. It's not even that the VK is soo bad, but I am more likely to put off things like enter calendar dates and take notes and reminders because it is more of a hassle than with a physical keyboard. It was also a bit too big for me to comfortably use with one hand.
Bottom line is if you are thinking about switching but are attached to the keyboard, you may want to wait for a little longer to see if another slider comes out. I think a 4.3" slider with a 720p screen would be absolutely perfect.
I just played with the GS3 and I have to say it doesn't feel as solid in hand as the gnex, gs2, and especially the evo lte. However, it seemed the most fluid of them all.

Depends on the BBY. I walked in, asked some questions about the buyback and protection plans, then said, hey, do you price match Radioshack's deal; the associate called Radioshack, they said $150, he said okay. Color wasn't even a thing.

Yes I agree...contract prices are the same...I was always under the impression even if ur not due for a contract upgrade u can still resign and save 250 off retail...so the phone would be 639-250= 389 + tax....but yes I'm wondering too why it's so much

Early termination fee is 325 minus 10 bucks for every month in contract. Makes you due for another upgrade. 325 + 200 for s4 + 36 upgrade fee will save you a good bit of money compared to buying it outright.

That is true didn't think of it that way...maybe I'll look into that...
Maybe I'll wait til the phone is released and play with it in store first (which is what I should've done with the HTC one) before making that choice again

Ok so long story short I upgraded ny line with HTC one....I really like the phone but miss my Samsung already....since I unlocked my ones bootloadet I cannot return it....so I was thinking of selling it and buying the gs4 off contract....I spoke with an Att sales rep the other night and he's telling me off contact price is over 700...is that really the cost? Anyone know? Thanks

Yeah I am but since I went ahead and unlocked my bootloader I can't reset it back to factory... If Att wanted to check they can see it's been tampered with...
That use I guess if they are smart enough to look for that kind of thing....I bought it over the phone...I guess I can return it the same way ans hope they don't check....

Not normally checked. Not like it's gonna say bootloader unlocked on the screen when they go to take the return. More than likely the person is just gonna check for damage and wipe it clean. Go ahead and reset it before you take it back up there.

Can't you just bring it back to the att store?
