And yet it still costs $299 to get it new from VZW. Never mind loyal, long-time customers like myself who are looking to upgrade and the best I can do is $249.
Amazon is an indirect retailer. They purchase phones from VZW and sell them independantly. If Amazon or any other indirect retailer deciedes to sell a device at a cheaper rate that is entirley up to them. They sell the devices from their own stock and they are the ones who have to recoup the loses from selling the device that cheap.
Amazon also has additional terms and Conditions when you purchase a phone from them. One of them might be you can't make any changes on your account for a specified time frame after the purchase. It helps to read the fine print.
I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.
