My Turbo was an upgrade as I have a current account with Verizon. The $200 gift card was when we traded in my wife's old I phone for the 6+. In addition I was given $12.00 for my old phone and the store give me an additional $100.00 credit for my old phone to buy accessories. Of course the State of California charged sales tax on the retail price of everything I bought for their pound of flesh. Hope this explains it.

Thanks for the clarification. The fact that it was an upgrade means a subsidized price of $199.99 or $249.99 for the 64GB model, when on regular pricing. Right now, pricing from Verizon for on-contact upgrades is $99.99 for 32GB, and $124.99 for the 64GB model! There is also an ongoing offer for $1.00 with a new activation, for purchases at Best Buy (not sure if it also includes upgrades).

Also as mentioned by @RudyN there is a trade-in program for older used smartphones, where you will get a minimum of $100 with a working trade. The phone must be a smartphone (which normally requires a data plan), there can be no water damage, the phone must boot up, the screen can not be cracked, and the battery must be included. I traded a Droid 2 that was pretty scratched up, it's appraised value was only $1, according to the Verizon trade-in website page, yet I was given a $100 certificate.

I paid like $650 for 64 ballistic on edge plan, now you can get it for $1.00 at best buy.
WTF

I paid $250 for mine on Saturday, with $125 mail-in rebate, but I'm not the least bit upset. It was worth every penny of the $125. I'll sell my HTC One to pay for that.

This phone rocks!

Someone wake me when the 64GB ballistic nylon goes on sale please. I mean the full retail price since I have the unlimited plan. If not, maybe I'll grab one before spring time. AND MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL!!!
