Google Nexus 6 on Sprint

Glad I signed up for that sprint notification of when the nexus 6 would be available lol. Never got any notification from sprint, then read this stating that it was live to sell.
 
Strange....

I may get flamed for this but I have thick skin!! LOL!!

Just ordered through Sprint Telesales. I'm part of the Easy Pay program. I thought that when I upgraded I would have to turn in my old phone (Galaxy Note 3) but it turns out that what Sprint does is a buy back and applies (in my case $175) towards your new device/account balance. I told the sales rep that I'd just like to keep my phone if possible. He said that was kool and proceeded to place my order!!

I just signed the electronic agreement online (which didn't state that I had to return my old phone) I'll keep it as a back up or sell it on Swappa or through Craig 'n Dem (Craigslist) I did have to shell out $121 for taxes and fees up front though.

I also received an email that the phone was back ordered soo...

Did you get a date on how long it'd be back-ordered?
 
As of 9AM MST, the phone is availalbe, w/delivery in 2-5 business days.

I'm on VZW, and have ordered it off contract. I can cancel service immediately, or return the phone for $35 if I don't want to keep it. If I keep it, I will change SIM's and use my VZW service.....

Getting a call back in around an hour from Sprint because their warehouse system is saying they have 32gb phones ready to ship, but the online system isn't and that they're back-ordered so they have to check a few things. I'll keep you guys updated, and for what it's worth the representative said they hadn't gotten any indication from Sprint about getting the 64gb so you can take that for what it is, as well.

Hey, so she told me they were actually back-ordered, but only until the 17th and that's when they'll be shipping the phones (so you should be getting your's within 2-5 days afterwards). I decided to end up just picking up in store because evidently corporate stores are for sure going to get inventory on the 17th and I have two Sprint corporate stores right by me which will make it easier with no S&H or waiting.
 
It's kind of crazy, I called the corporate store and the guy said they were expecting it today but they didn't have them in store, but I could go in store and preorder one, when I asked him when he expected them back in store he didn't know when but he said it could be possible they could have them later today?

Either way Ill probably swing by after work and preorder I guess

Just got off the phone with a rep as well after I placed my order last night. She said that they DID have the phone in the warehouse, not many, but that it was going to be picked up by UPS today. She stated she had to call because the online system wasn't showing them in stock or something. But yeah, she said I'll get a shipping confirmation number within 24 hours. We'll see.
 
Oh well, placing my order took too long. They said it was in stock when I was placing the order. The confirmation, however, shows I got put on the pre-order list. They THINK it'll ship end of next week. I cancelled, and now will have to wait for my Moto order arriving Dec. 9.......
 
I did get my Pre-register e-mail from Sprint at 1:22pm EST so that system is working.
My Sprint guy said the N6 order he made a couple of days ago is processing today and we are hoping it will be shipped out to him on Monday the 17th.

So it looks like the middle of next week is when they should start to arrive. :)
We may still get ours before any other carrier. Just a few more days...
Patience, my young Padawans.

Mav. :cool:

I got mine too, but it was a picture of a nexus 6 with kit kat it looked like. lol. I decided to wait on the phone and save for the white version from google direct and go see the phone in stores too. Can't wait to see the posts of images/reviews.
 
Re: Sprint Nexus 6 - Available November 14

Easy Pay is not a deal by any means. I certainly hope they don't move to that completely. I would definitely have to evaluate my options if so.

Posted via the Android Central App

EZ pay is a deal unless you want it for free. I paid $54.00 and got it ordered for the total tax price. I pay $85.00 monthly for service now, and with ez pay I will pay $60.00 for unlimited data, and talk. I will pay $29.00 for the phone and now I pay $89.00, which is $4.00 more than I am paying now with with the $85.00 unlimited plan with the new phone to boot. My out of pocket cash is $4.00 a month more for the Nexus 6 plus the total taxes that I paid up front.
I can pay the phone off any time for an early upgrade. So in total $54.00 plus $4.00 more a month is $48.00 a year v $199.00 is a better deal any way you slice it.

Just have good credit and this works with no % like a credit card charges.

Sprint told me that they are only getting the 32gb midnight blue version. When I asked if more sizes and colors were coming they said the rest are only available on Google Play. And they also said that the didn't know if the Google Play version could be used on Sprint.

I know it's stupid, just posting it here.

I'm using EZ Pay since I traded in some phones and got some good credit back that I'll apply to the balance. Not paying $300 on contract.
 
Might just order online. Called 6 Sprint stores around me about having the phone in stock tomorrow and 4 of them said no, it was only going to be online orders and they had no idea for how long it'd be done that way, one said they might and told me to check in at the time he gave, and another said Friday was when they were getting the phones for in store. Has anybody who was put on back-orders for the Nexus when they bought online gotten any updates for shipping times?
