I picked up a new 8220 flip at Costco Monday for $79.99 with a $50 mail in rebate. They ring up the phone for $249.99 with a $170 coupon discount (so you pay sales tax on the $249.99). There is also an $18 "new phone fee" which will be added to my next T-Mobile bill. Costco includes a Cigarette lighter adapter, a cheap leather holster and a no-name bluetooth headset with the phone. They were listing the same prices for new service and customers eligible for a phone upgrade. Both require a 2 year service commitment. The phone is available in Black or Red. At this price, I decided it was time to upgrade from my 8100 Pearl.
