Wirefly:

I just spoke with "aaron" of wirefly via online chat.

Apparently they will not be receiving phones until the 26th. meaning you can expect shipments to go out on the 26th AT THE EARLIEST. The later in line you are, the higher the chances you may get delayed even more.

1-Day shipping means the 27th at the earliest, so no time to play with it on the weekend...

Since going with wirefly does save me $70, tax, plus friends and family store, I'll be anxiously waiting, but this does suck

Amazon:

Their website states estimated delivery date of July 1st with 2-day shipping as well!

Unfortunately, since i save on tax (almost 10%), and it's $20 cheaper than RS or Sprint, coupled with the extra $25 off through fatwallet, I can't say that 3 days is worth $70, but this really annoys me.

1. go here: http://www.fatwallet.com/Wirefly-coupons/ for the click-through. it gives you $25 cash back for ordering any phone on wirefly.
2. to get friends and family price (which is $149.99) google wirefly friends and family.
3. if you have Bank of America, go here: https://additup.bankofamerica.com , and then access wirefly, and you get $50 in your BofA account.

But, all these options do not allow you to have your phone on the 24th.

I don't think you can take the word from 1 chat representative and say it's delayed. I called and asked and they said it would ship on the 24th. Now I'm regretting putting $50 down at Radioshack. I may get it from wirefly friends and family for $150 and then get $50 to spend at Radioshack on accessories and what not...

Here's radioshack friends and family link for evo3d: http://www.wirefly.com/eCommerce/SpecialOffer.aspx?cid=26987_f2a580fe7f2f4a6ea60a21124db58371

You'll want to change the zipcode if you use it...I just made that one up ;).

I hope you're right. I also pre-ordered at radioshack, but I figure, if I pick up the phone for $150, i save taxes and basically got the gift card for free... if my 3D is delayed too far out (very possible since i just purchased this morning depending on their stock and looking at amazon's status), i'll just pick it up from radio shack. I'll talk to another wirefly rep in a bit and see if i get the same answer.

My local Best Buy will be receiving 30 phones on the 24th. I'm number 13 on the reserved list. Im sure other places will save you a buck or more but I've been holding onto a $100 BB gift card since Christmas for this very reason. 2 weeks can't come soon enough!!!

I went with The Shack. Wirefly has some ridiculous policy that if you swap phone numbers on the 3D they charge you like 300 dollars. My wife has a full upgrade, mine isnt up until July so I'm getting the 3D on her upgrade then giving her my Evo. She can't wait to get rid of her Pre, and I'll still be sitting on a full upgrade for the next best phone when July rolls around. :D

I've been hearling a little bit about that $300 charge. Is that for as long as you have the phone, or not?

Second question, are you guys saying that I can use the family & friends discount with the fatwallet discount and pay only like $125 for my EVO?
