Been reading these threads with interest for the past few weeks. I have been phone shopping switching from Sprint. I had gone to a Cingular store at first but after reading what someone said about Best Buy and Wal Mart I found the Cingular store was much more expensive. I am glad I read this forum.
I initially bought a pair of Razrs for $140 and we were not happy with them and got instead a couple of Sonys. The return was fast and easy. We ported one number and got a new number on another phone. No glitches no issues. I do not know what I am missing for the extra couple of hundred the Rep at the Cingular Store was charging me. It would seem I would not have to go to a Cingular Store for anything now. So far so good on Cingular Service.

Can I ask you a question... Why is profit a dirty word? Why do people like "Ten" feel that every company should sell at little or no profit? Cost on a Motorola Razor is $260.00. Cingular Pays $235.00 Commission on a $49.99 Rate plan. If I sell that phone for $70.00 then I make $45.00 net profit. If my store sold 60 phones a month like that I will gross $2700.00. I have rent at $1600.00 and a full time employee at $1500.00. So far I am losing $400.00 and I have not paid any utilities, business insurance or myself.
This is what is wrong with America. People like "Ten" forget that its the small business owners that employ 70% of America. The other 30% of people work for the larger companies and if those companies were not profitable then peo...
