Very worried about the "deal" I got.

[thehobler]

I've never strayed from the Verizon path until now. After months of shopping for a new phone I decided the Rez was it for me. The $100 price difference at Verizon was what led me away from the Razr Maxx. Then I found the deal at Amazon for $49. Jumped on it because now I get the phone and can buy the extended battery, battery charger and a case and holster all for less than the Maxx phone only.

What did I do? Amazon says the phone is out of stock and will be shipped in 2-3 weeks. Extended batteries, cases, chargers are all in various stages of delay or out of stock. Am I going to be sorry for doing this. What's the catch? Are there a bunch of hidden charges etc. or will my contract with Verizon be worse than what I had? I am moving up from the original Motorola Droid. Just seems to good to be true. :-\

Verizon had the Rezound on sale for $50 for the last month. No sales catches.

this is true...it was about a week and a half...$50 Rezound was an awesome deal

Actually the sale was for about a week. Depending on your finances or upgrade eligibility, that really wasnt too helpful for too many people. As far as cases and extended batteries, Verizon is selling extended batteries for all 4g phones half off right now.(Ive seen them for even cheaper on ebay, not sure how legit they are) I went into my local VZ store Wednesday and bought one for $29.99.

You just can't make any major changes to your account for six months when you purchase through Amazon.

I had no trouble with Amazon Wireless.

I have always had great deals on Amazon....they will take care of ya...(hopefully)

I bought 3 Rezounds for my family at Thanksgiving from Amazon - total cost $.03. We have had no problems - deal was great and setup easy. Just remember what T-Rex said - don't make major changes on your account during the first six months or they will charge you $250 per phone.

How do you keep unlimited txt plan buying through Amazon wireless? I see there is an option for keeping unlimited data but not so for txts?

 

[DroidRican69]

Is it not included in your talking plan??? "450 Talk and Text"

Which is why directly after you order you should contact Amazon and Verizon to make sure you got exactly what you wanted. Otherwise you're stuck.
