I got it last night at 3am est from letstalk. I don't know much about them except they've existed for at least several months (didn't check further) and they were actively answering questions on their facebook page all last night up through when it went on sale, and were very clear and knowledgeable.
Basically, buying a phone from a third party vendor, the vendor has very little to do with anything. You buy the phone from them, they send you the phone, if you return it it goes to them, and if you want to cancel within 6 months they have an extra fee. Otherwise, you're basically just dealing with verizon as usual. So unless they just jack your money or don't send the phone or send a broken one, there is very little they can do to screw you up.
Amazon now has them for 150 new/200 upgrade, and Verizon itself had a 100 dollar off deal available to people in the midwest/chicago area, so some other vendors are selling them for pretty similar it just might not have been available to everyone. Letstalk is now backordered but i think you can still get that price if you don't mind waiting a couple weeks. Obv i know nothing about their customer service etc, but i'm hoping that my phone arrives tomorrow and i don't have to worry about it.
