Exact Total Price Handset Purchase Scenarios for Metro PCS

Paid $96.01 OTD
Breakdown:
$179.00 Zmax Pro
-$80.00 Instant Rebate
-$60.00 Port a line
This makes the phone $40ish
$30 First month cheap plan
$10 Accessory (silicone case, fits floppy and is crap, but nervous without a case of some sort)
$17.01 Tax...this appears based on the total BEFORE rebates/line port credit
$96.01
Cheers!
 
$84 out the door; I ported over an H2o prepaid per minute account over, it only had about $10 on the account. The sim cards are cheap on ebay, too. So if you have the patience, order an H2o sim card from ebay activate it online, and use that as a port over account and save some more money that way. Actually I love H2O and I will go back to them later after I unlock this, due to metropcs (tmobile) has limited coverage compared to H2o (AT&T).

Phone: $179.00
Instant rebate: -$80.00
Switch device -$60.00
(port number from H2O)
$30/mth plan $00.00
Activation: $30
Tax: $15.39
Total $84.39

I have a feeling this is a time exclusive to Metro and will in some time be available on Tmo as well.

If it does become available for T-Mobile in the future it most likely will be at the full price of $179 or higher. That's how it ha been with my last 3 metro phones. The T-Mobile version was always more expensive

Yap. You guys are right. It's available now on Tmobile in pricier amount. Now what is their LEGIT reasoning really for the bolded quote? Not only Tmobile but the other BIG network carriers too? I mean do they have gold flakes on their data waves or something?

Same with Iphone and the other BIG phone companies? I have always hated overpriced anything and that's why I never bought a single apple products. Not impressed with Steve Jobs too, really. Dead or alive.

I don't see an overpriced Iphone can do that my hacked smart GPS can't, back in the day, LOOOOOOOL.

Oh and to stay on topic. I bought mine $123 for everything last September. Didn't know about that porting discount until I went on this forum and bought it.
