OK guys i finally found this......here ya go speaks for itself

axvx8xoxr · 07-23-2004, 1:46 AM

Nice find!

$249.99 is probably with a rebate of some sorts and a two year agreement..sheesh.

Too bad it doesn't mention if the phone will be able to connect to computers or other handsets...

The buttons are interesting..

If nothing else, you saved a few bucks.

ElectroniksDude · 07-23-2004, 10:58 AM

The retail to me looks like it says $319.99, not $519.99 ... Can anyone make this out for sure?

$319 is the price with new activation BEFORE the mail-in rebate. It is NOT the full retail (ie: no discount) price.

AdamAtTheShack · 07-23-2004, 3:44 PM

ok since i have the actual flyer in front of me:

reg price before rebate 319

unactivated price 519

but remember radioshack also has a much higher unact price than verzion

AnthroMatt · 07-23-2004, 5:55 PM

Definitely $519...look at the price right under the word "New"

Gideon H · 07-23-2004, 7:34 PM

Lol it is $319 not $519. I have 20/19 vision so you can be sure I can see it

. Plus I doubt they would make it over $319. But you are right about the $519 "w/o activation" price.

That's what we are (or at least I am) talking about...the non-activation (retail) price.

Verizon likes to call the activation price the retail price but that is BS.

AdamAtTheShack · 07-23-2004, 8:21 PM

OK to make it perfectly clear.....]

The Final PRice 2 year activation AFTER rebates is 249.99.

Price for a 2 year activation Before rebates is 319.99
This price can also be considered the reg price by verizon

The "full retail" or CASh OUT or non-activated or just want to buy the phone price is 519.99 "IN Radioshack only" verizon also has a lower "retail" price. Verizon will probaley full retail it at around 450 or so.

This price can also be referred to as the "I'm Not eligibile for an upgrade for another 10 months" or "I droped my phone in the toilet" price

I hope that makes things crystal

noone ever said that 519 was the price....we only said thats the retail just to clear that up. (it says 519.99 on there

) BTW i have 20/13

axvx8xoxr · 07-25-2004, 3:51 PM

I was going to make a "i have 20/13" comment also but got beat to it! lol...

Either way $519 for just the phone is a little bit outrageous...

I dont think i'll be buying this phone for a while if it's gonna be 519.99... i can wait till my contract is up and i sign a new one or the price comes down quite a bit. i'll be happy sticking with my LG VX4500 until i can afford the V710

axvx8xoxr · 07-25-2004, 7:17 PM

The $519.99 price was for just the phone without activiation or even a contract, and it was through RadioShack. Be sure to check the prices again when the phone is launched by Verizon, they may be a little cheaper, even without a contract.

Airb330 · 07-25-2004, 11:29 PM

That's very expensive for a 2 year contract, and outrageous for no-contract. Sheesh.

I hate to admit it, but not at VZW it's not. I remember, 3 years ago, paying $399 for my V60c at launch - and that was with a 2 year contract! (I remember 1yr was $25 more, and I think I've blocked out of my mind what the no-contract price was.) So I guess all things considered, $249 isn't SO bad.

Psted · 07-26-2004, 12:43 AM

I don't think 250 is bad at all at the phones release. I also paid alot for my v60 when I got it from verizon.

It funny you mention that because i had a customer come into my store with a v60c and i had to look up his receipt. and exactly as u say 399.99 is what he paid early 2002. if you look at it that way 250 is a bargin.

AnthroMatt · 07-26-2004, 12:52 AM

Yeah, I remember forking over at least $250 for my v60i.

axvx8xoxr · 07-26-2004, 1:34 AM

I'm sure that every one of us as paid too much for a phone, but we all need new toys every now and then, right?

I remember paying $288 for my new 4500 just a week after it was released in 2004. first week in Feb actually. that was without a contract, but that's not bad at all...

ChristianLife21 · 07-26-2004, 3:45 AM

i just came across a website that said that the V710 would only be $300 for retail price. ???? who knows.... just have to wait and see what Verizon says.... though i changed the page and i cant find it now otherwise i would have posted the page link.

DrayCoxx · 07-26-2004, 4:30 AM

So then is Radio Shack actually gonna get the phone before VZW retail stores? Any date on when Verizon will start shipping them since I would assume they would be cheaper.

Radioshack has been planning this for a while. The probably took the initiative and getting shipments directly to their warehouses. Verizon probably wants to stock up a bit and be sure they have enough for a big release. On the other hand Radioshack doesn't care. First Week each store will probably get like 3 each. thats how it is with most phones, then like 2 weeks later the big delivery.

axvx8xoxr · 07-26-2004, 2:09 PM

Will the RS stores have the V710 and be selling them before Verizon releases the phone though? Or will they wait until Verizon releases the phone to start selling/shipping/delivering them?
