If you still have a hankerin for a Palm Pre, youre in luck. Newly rebranded, The Shack (formerly known as RadioShack) will have the Pre discounted $50 this weekend as part of their rebranding celebration [noise warning]. That brings the price of a new Pre down to $149.99, though the sale price is only good for new Sprint customers, current subscriber two-year-upgraders will have to plop down $219.99 for a Pre from the Shack, a $20 premium over what youd pay dealing directly with Sprint. The sale will run through this weekend only (August 7-9), and as always, requires at minimum a Sprint Everything Data plan. [via PreThinking]
The Shack is not alone in the Palm Pre deals game. Online cell phone retailer Wirefly has a permanently discounted price on their Pre phones: $169.99 for new Sprint customers. Two-year upgrade customers will find themselves paying $200, while those looking to purchase off-contract will have to fork over a hefty $799.99. Ouch. At least Wirefly offers free shipping.

we also do price matches so if you baught the pre 30 days before you can return it at sprint and repurchase here at radioshack or if you baught at radioshack already.. just come back and we'll give you the difference for the month.... guaranteed!!!

This is degrading to my Pre.... At least the last part made me feel better :lol:

On a serious note, this will be good for Pre sales, a saw the promotion on my local Shack and thought for myself... Crap, should have waited. Alls good though, I'm waiting on the Pro2 to swap my old demon possesed touch pro for (I managed a deal with a buddy of mine that works for sprint) so I'll get an early one woohoo!!!
