Bargaining in Wireless Stores?

Hi Everyone,

I recently got in on the Samsung A400/Sprint phone deal with Staples. However, other plans like Verizon seem to offer a better airtime package for a cheaper price.

What I'm asking is if I go into one of the B&M Sprint stores and present them with a deal (or a hypothetical one) from a competitor, will they try and match that? or are they stuck to the published plans and promotions offered by the Sprint website?

My gut feeling is that a local store should have the flexibility to beat it, otherwise, I don't see the big deal of opening hundreds of stores to sell what they already can sell on their website.

Also, will it help any if I am planning on buying 2 plans on a 1 year contract?

Please post your experiences with this (if any) and how much airtime or bonuses like (wireless) internet can I reasonably add?


Thank you

Bao
