    VZW accessory prices

    Why are their prices so insane?
    Motorola s305 headphones are $60, when they are $30-$35 everywhere else.

    Verizon's prices have always been insane. That's why they always try to include them with the phone bumping up the price. Because no one buys them otherwise.

    Probably because the monthly dues go to the corporate HQ and not the stores individually...so they increase the accessory prices to make a little money...my guess...

    I get 25% off them so i don't care much. I will only buy from them if they are just around the same price as others.
    Resistance is futile.

    We're supposed to get a 25% corporate discount on accessories, but it doesn't apply when I put something in the cart.

    Why does anyone charge more than someone else. Because there are people willing to pay.
