I bet coulda got 200-250. Only reason I say that is because I still see freakin Ascends going for between 80-140!!! I only paid 50 for the Ascend brand new from the store.

Well I hate to be the first one to complain but... I ordered my phone on Sunday the 27th with standard shipping and the tracking claims that it won't be here until the 7th. I seriously wish I had just ponied up the extra cash for the 2 day shipping.
On the bright side I ordered a Trident Kraken case in black and it should get here before the phone does. I wish it were a two part case with the built in screen protector like some of their other Kraken cases. But it looks like it should do the job nicely.

I paid the 2 day shipping and received the phone in just 48 hours.

Lol I know!!!..... but wirefly takes one day for validating your purchase and even though they shipped the phone so quickly that I received in 48 hours (2 days) Lol
nice nice. i did the same thing pretty much. my question how long did it take. i paid for the 2day air. and all but it's saying on the website it's going to get here on monday~tues.. and i'm like "Wut... what the shit." XD i'm not mad i just want my cellphone i figured i would've had it by this weekend. i ordered it early morning on the first. X_X

Holidays. You picked a bad time for getting it in the mail fast.
lol fail.
thanks. i thought it would be safe. using the gap between turkey day and christmas XD dangitlol fail.
I ordered mine on the 11.19.11 with free shipping and received it on the 11.29.11. Took so long but i guess that's why its free shipping... Going to order another for gf with next day shipping, well see how that goes.
dang dude, sorry to hear that X_X. yeah i hear that i maynot use the same site again.. but idk.. i paid for the next best thing to overnight and yet i'm still stuck waiting. no that website owes me like 8 bucks because i'm basicly getting the free shipping timing rather then what i paid for. XD

Wirefly free shipping is the pits. I ordered a week ago and I'm not supposed to get my phone till Thursday. Tracking says it's chilling out at the Sacramento hub about an hour and a half away and has been for the last 24hrs. If I don't get my phone by tomorrow I'm gonna be pissed.

haha sometimes easier said then done sometimes.. and for everyone else ordering from wirefly.. i ordered mine late thursday, came early tuesday morning.. figure in weekends for the 2 day shipping.. was a day late but couldnt have been happier once it got here.. this was about a month ago though.. at either rate, still alot better then waiting weeks for the rebate..
and btw, it was awesome when i told a metro rep you could get one for 249 without a rebate
all they did was say no no no no lol.. until lolmines finally made it in this morning around 11:50am, the guy running the box to me was abit of a douche but over all. love the phone, hated the serivce i got as in shipping. thier 2day air was really 3 - 5 day shipping via fedex ground Y_Y anywho. i'm going to do a review if they ask me to and i'm going to add that detail in there. so buyer beware, great deals but slow slow shipping serivces. XD

Found out this morning that FedEx is handing it over to USPS to actually deliver(with an additional one to two day wait) it instead of simply dropping it off themselves. This is just so stupid. The site says, free FedEx shipping, not free USPS and your package will get there sometime weeks later. I'm kinda tempted to call up their customer service and see if I can't get some of my money back for this BS.
do it!!! DOoo it!!! XD lol mnnn my advice is keep the phone. the phone has nothing to do with it's foster parents just throwing it in different places before finally coming home to ya. so my advice is give it some time and fool around with it. but leave a awful evil review for the site. but the phone. i'd say give it a great review. XD deispit my awful time i had to wait for mines, everything worked and it running like a dream

That's because they use Fedex smartpost. It starts out with Fedex and then they hand it over to the USPS to finish [supposed to be cost saving to business owners or something] I totally agree with you though. I thought it was stupid and lame.
I gave in and ordered my phone with Wirefly on Black Friday. It took a week for it to get to me.

I'm ordering this phone from wirefly and my only question is what comes with the phone in the box? (I'd love that HDMI cable to play some metal slug on my tv and use a ps3 controller for it)

I'm not sure about wirefly but, normally, it does not come with the hdmi cable. It only comes with the usb and wall plug. Also, if you are going to get the hdmi cable, remember, it's micro-hdmi not mini-hdmi.
