Full Price or Apple Upgrade Program?

[jnj967]

So here's the question I have and I'm just wondering if it comes down to personal preference

Currently have a 7 Plus on IUP with 10 payments of $43 left.

Do I get the X on the IUP or just order it and pay retail thru my Verizon account (and then add applecare)?

Is there any specific advantage to paying full retail? If I went that route, I could easily sell the 7 Plus for over $430 online (that balance of my current IUP phone)

Just wanted to get everyones thoughts

Thanks

Upgrade program, because you'll have a much better chance of getting the new device at launch. It's all but been confirmed that iUP buyers had way more stock allocated than for outright buyers.
