Buying a phone at Best Buy vs Verizon Store

[ScarletBuckeye]

I've been looking around and can't find any definite answers, is there much of a difference buying at BB vs a Vzn store? I don't have a smartphone now so I would have to change my plan, is there any problem with doing that at BB?

I know there some differences like the price of the phone with rebates and stuff, but I'm wondering more with the contract.

BB can do pretty much everything VZW can. Except BB only has a 2 year contract I think. Can't do a 1 year.

I don't mind getting a 2 yr......

so as I take it, going there is just like going into the vzn store?


Im assuming the billing would be the same no matter if I get the phone at BB?

 

[SierraRR]

Yep it is.

Best buy also has a thing going on where they buy back your phone at the end of the 2 year contract for half of the off contract price of the phone. For example if you buy a dx right now on a 2 ye contract, at the end of the 2 years the phone is worth $300 off contract they will pay you $150 for it.

I think best buy does do 1 years contacts mate. I was going to get a galaxy on a 1 year.

No one year contracts is a killer for me.

Other than that they're the same.

With Buy back you can sell it to bb at anytime 1-6 months is a% 6-12 months is a % etc. So contract really isn't a big deal. I heard buy back will be free of you purchase a new phone from 6feb-24feb.

VZW and BB will be the only ones selling the TB

BB has a better insurance plan vs VZW imo. 10 dollars a month, no deductible, BB will replace a water damaged phone or one with a cracked screen. You get a new phone vs refurb. Plus, you can cancel anytime and get your money back in a BB gft card. So say 6 months in I cancel, I get 60 back.
