do you have att, sprint, or verizon? also, radioshack employees might not know how to unlock it
 
If you restore as new it should say it is unlocked. Restoring from an old backup will not show that.
 
Fill out the unlock request form on AT&T website no need to fax them And when they send you the instruction to unlock your phone then it is the time to restore your iPhone on iTunes. I bout with full price and did the same process now mine is unlock
