Yup. I am not in a contract with Verizon. I've been out of contract for over 3 years. I do not want a contract and do not want their $199 subsidized price. I just want to pay $649 and use it on Verizon.
So my only option is to go the Apple store? Is that consensus?
damn your going all in

Either really late Thursday or really early Friday depend on how you look at it
Little confused by what you meant, but I'll try to be more clear:
What I mentioned above, as long as you have an account with Verizon and are able to enter your credentials you can order an unsubsidized phone, as long as the line you order it on isn't eligible for an upgrade. If you don't have an account with Verizon, then no, you're not able to do so.
If the line you're on is currently eligible for an upgrade, which if you have been out of contract for 3 years, probably is. You can either pre-order through Verizon online at full retail or go to the Apple Store.
Ok, so Verizon's website will allow me to pay full retail and not use my upgrade. That helps a lot. I'd rather not have to go up to the Apple Store if I don't have to after work on the 19th.
I'd also like to know if you can preorder and get in store pickup on the 19th (assuming your preorder is made early enough).
Ordering the plus 64gb. I love the silver back, reminiscent of the original iPhone. But I wish it didn't have a white front. Guess i'll go with the space grey.
Thanks.
So I have to try to order a subsidized phone first, and once Verizon rejects me, then they give me the option of buying the full priced phone? Is that correct?
64GB Spay Gray iPhone 6 on AT&T. I was considering AT&T Next, but I think I'll just stick with the traditional 2 year contract. My iPhone 5 is ready to retire.
You were able to change the shipping address after the order was placed/ I had mine shipped to a different address on launch day, same with my friend.
i have not read everything yet but why didn't they knock 16GB out and then just start with 32GB??
i think 5.5gb 16GB with ATT, buying outright as well
i will have iCloud + iTunes match so my space will be for any upgrades...
Well you don't have to try more than once. When you checkout with an iPhone, Apple's system will prompt you to enter your Verizon credentials. It will see if the line you entered is eligible for an upgrade, if you are you pay the subsidized price, if you aren't you pay the full price.
yes you can but i always go with amex, if there is ever a problem they have your back and will help sort it out!!
I'll be ordering the 5.5" iPhone 6 Plus 128GB Space Gray with AT&T. I need to go by AT&T tomorrow and pay off my Note 3 NEXT installment plan so I can free up the upgrade. It will be getting sent off to Gazelle right after. I have to do it that way or else I have to wait and pray that the stores have what I want to be able to trade in the Note 3 for the iPhone.
