I spoke with many product advisors from different providers/stores. Some do not even have them on order... I hope you aren't just posting based on what other forums are posting out east.

Source please!

Sign a new plan? Renewed? Or just buy outright?
How much did you end up paying if you don't mind sharing?

I dont sign contracts cause in the end you pretty much pay for the phone in the years you've signed with them.

I paid 620.
