Default [Q] Radio Shack Trade in price?

So I'm a little confused about the whole trade in price of the original Evo 4G. According to the ad is states that they are giving $100 toward the purchase of the Evo 3d, but on Radio Shack's website the trade in value for an Evo in excellent condition is $158. If anyone that works for Radio Shack could answer this it would be greatly appreciated. I was actually thinking about trading in my Evo tomorrow to see what the value would be.

I just called my radio shack. They will only do the $100. I told them the site says $158. They said they can't price match it when it comes to the 3d purchase because it has come from corporate. So maybe trade in for a different phone. Return it after 15 seconds and get the 3d? Me, I'm just going to sprint first thing in the am and if they have stock I'll just get it there and use my RS gift card for accessories.

Not much use in a RS thread,but my local sprint store is giving 150... and I don't even have to unroot. Keep the SD card and charger... just hand over the phone

NO NO NO NO!!!! guys! i worked at the shack and now dont lol. SO! heres what you do! You trade in your EVO for the regular trade in price of 158, you DO NOT trade it in towards your evo3d that will only get you your 100 trade in.... so go in and say hey i wanna trade in this phone, it should still be 158 till at least thursday or friday then im sure it will plummet, i traded mine in for the 158 and then used 50 of the trade in to preorder it =) soooo theres your insider tip!

Did just that at the Sprint store today. Gave them my rooted OG Evo for a $150 credit. Kept sd card and charger. No issues at all.
