You kidding, right? this phone is being promoted as $239 retail price, whereas the LG G3 you're talking about sells for $100 with a 2yr contract, or $100 plus monthly payments (not sure because I havent seen the BB promotion). If you really believe that an LG G3 retails for only $100 you are dreaming.

from what I just read... is $239.. it didn't say about the full retail price or 2 yr contract...

yes bestbuy sell LG G3 for $100 for 2 yr...

not sure who really wants to spend full price on a phone (unless their phone crapped out)

Well, that's just it, it didn't specify anything so you can assume the retail price of the phone is $239 (specially considering the specs). You'll be surprised at how many people buy phones at retail (I used to be one till phone matched the price of computers lol).

Everyone spends full retail on a phone. You may not pay it up front but do you think the carrier is taking the hit on the phone? The lost cost of the phone is built into your plan, they get their money back.

$240 is the full retail. Oddly, Boost and Virgin are selling it for $150.

My mom has Boost, hasn't complained at all because she doesn't really leave far from the house. If I had it though, I would hate it because I need faster data speeds.
