Hmmmm

I was told by a manager at a VZW store that I would be able to purchase one Droid X at retail price ($199.99) and receive a second Droid X for only half price. However, when I called VZW themselves, I was told that no such offers exist. Do you think I should go ahead with an offer like this or just skip it? Plus, do you think these phones will be new or refurbished?

I don't know but something just seems fishy to me.

Droid X are on backorder for some while and Verizon is working to catch up on orders so I do not believe that they would start a plan like that because they do not have devices on hand now... Besides if the store tells you that they are not doing any deal like that how do you plan to go ahead anyway with getting that desl? That sounds like some **bleep** to me.

I think someone was "Pullin' your leg" so to speak.

The Buy one, get one free, or Buy one, get one at half price, are marketing tools used to boost sales. When you have a phone that sells so well that you can't keep them in stock, there is no reason have "specials" meant to improve sales.

Did you even bother reading what I posted mate? I suggest you reread it and edit you post for it makes no sense.

@dirkbonn:

That's what I was thinking as well, hence the reason I posted it here to see what you guys thought of it. It just seemed so weird that such a popular phone would have such a deal so fast. Plus, I sure as hell don't want any refurbished ones; may make me go a little insane.

Are you sure that isn't for the first Droid?

Total **bleep** unless you get a contract that states your post for new phones. At our local store, there are no X's. You are on a wait list...

I noticed I made a few typos but it also didnt help when the system remove or edit words for whatever reason? :smileymad:

All I was saying was that the Droid X has been on back-order for some while and Verizon is working to catch up on orders so I did not believe that they would start a plan like that because they dont have enough devices on hand now... You asked if you should still go for the deal but if the store told you that the deal does not exist, I was asking you how did you plan on getting the deal still? That sounds like the manager was lying to you or pulling your leg. .
