I thought it would only be right to give Northside Computers some advertising as Northside pays for all web hosting for cwscc.
So any computer needs, let me know. Discounts available for CWSCC members.
US Cellular, any phone needs, let me know, CWSCC discounts as well.

To be honest, when people way the bill is messed up, it usually isn't. Its just that they cant understand how to read it.
For a deal on the phone, sure I'll give ya a deal.

i agree, after being a cell agent for over 5years, it usually isn't the bill that's messed up. not to say it doesn't happen, but it's rare. and usually only after a change has been made to the cell plan, but again... very rare. usually lots of prorate that confuses people.

I was planning on leaving US Cellular... But, now that I would know the person I'm dealing with and not have to deal with some dumb twat salesperson who just wants to sell more shit, I'll stay. Especially the people at the new US Cellular store in Crossroads Commons, they are are worthless, but it's their job to do so.
devlish
01-02-2007, 10:38 AM
crossroads commons... i'd talk to jason. the manager. however, your right... it's their job to sell you. and honestly, if you've never worked for a cell company, you have NO IDEA how much pressure the company gives you to "upsell" the customer. that is the main goal these days, add-on sales.
and the stores are NOT making money on the phones, just so you know. even the high end phones, that end up costing the customer $300-$400 with a 2yr contract... are costing the store (or agent) about double that!! so they are loosing big on the phone sale, but making up for it by selling you other products. it makes sense. but yes, it can be annoying at the same time. and yes, Andy will confirm that i'm not just blowing smoke here...

Phones don't cost nearly what suggested retail is. The fucking razor retails for nearly the same thing a full fucking computer retails for..... give me a break. Not only that but the razor has been available for 3 years (same retail price) and now are they trying to market the damn thing as new. Every guy that went to Thailand in 2003 got an unlocked razors for under $100.
Dizmm, (Old Account)
01-05-2007, 08:59 AM
over there I am sure you can purchase them MUCH cheaper than in the good ole USA. Import tax, plus by the time it hits the end consumer, it has been marked up 5 times because its went through 5 different distibuters. Our cost on the razr before any contract is about $240 or something close to it.
EVILUTION
01-05-2007, 09:22 AM
Bullshit.....phone prices are artificially high but so are the plan prices. My point was three years ago they got razors for that price. Current cost on that phone is more like $50 at best. I'm not saying you dont pay too much .... what I'm saying is the service provider is raping people.
Dizmm, (Old Account)
01-05-2007, 10:12 AM
cost of the razr is $50 after you sign a contract. you are correct there. But we dont make ANY money on phones at all. its all on the service. And the way it works for us and I beleave even for Altel, the agents buy the phone outright (which for us is about $240) and when we sell the phone, we get paid the $190 from US Cellular, and the customer pays the other $50.
The phone may cost $50 right out of the factory, but you cant go by that. you have to go by fair market value and what other phones are being sold for.

My point is not what the suggested retail price is but rather what the actual cost to the cell phone company is.
A razr is a $50 phone. It is not a $300+ phone. I can get an entire computer with monitor for that price.

I'm gonna have to be honest, i HIGHLY dought that US Cellular pays $50 for the phone. I bet it cost US Cellular more around $120-150 ish. Yes you can get a computer with monitor for $300 if you want POS with no warranty.
devlish
01-07-2007, 07:28 PM
and that $120-150 is because US Cell bought about 50,000 at one time. i know for a FACT that when agents buy them, such as Andy's store, and my previous employer... our ACTUAL COST of the razor is well over $200, closer to $300 if i'm not mistaken. becuase being a small independant dealer, we are not buying 50,000 at once from Motorola, we could not even buy them from motorola directly, we have to go through Alltel (who we were agents for) so first there is their markup, and then the fact that we're only buy 20, maybe 30 at a time. that is usually why the company stores sell the phones for slightly less than agents, but agents usually pride themselves on better CS.

Yup, MY COST as an agent is $240 give or take a few doolers. Now Evil if your talking about the price after contract, you should be able to find a razr for $50 or less. In fact, If I were to give one of my *good* friends a deal, I'd give them the razr for free when they signed up because we make $100-$150 in commision on the sale so i can afford to do that.
*good* = to be a good friend you must be pre-qualified.

I got the razor for my gf for christmas and for reception wise its very good expecally where my dad lives I could never get any reception with any of my phone and the razor finally did it with no background noise like you would get or get cut off.

This explains everything that I have said. I am not wrong. Buyer beware.

Agent sells phone to customer for $X (some get fucked real good)
Agent gets $190 back from USC.

Ok, what i say here is should not be telling everyone but just so i can say I win in this argument I am gonna say it.
Phone cost for Northside Computers = $(info removed)
Sell to customer with 24month contract = $80, customer gets $30 mail in rebate.
US Cellular re-imburses Northside = $(info removed)
Now, Northside recieves Comission of $(info removed) if someone renews their contract, $(info removed) for new activation on a $40-70 per month plan, and $(info removed) on a $70+ plan.
Accessories, cost about $(info removed) for a charger with retail packaging, Northside sells them for $9.95, which is WELL below the average retail. The US Cellular retail store in rapids sells their accessories for $24.95. And I almost ALWAYS throw in a free car charger on just about every sale i make.
Now that you know my cost on everything, you're probably going to expect deals for free i guess. But keep in mind, a business NEEDS to make money.
Also who are you talking EVIL, Fuck the customer 1, 2, and 3 times??? You work for a fucking insurance company, they fuck customers 100+ times a day.

thanks for clearing that up. i was slightly wrong, i assumed your 190 was your total commision for phone & sale. i thought that seemed low, knowing what my previous employer makes. but either way, by the time you take the time to sell the phone, explain how it works, setup the acct, program the phone, then explain AGAIN how it works, you make between $70-$110 BEFORE paying your employee for all that time, amongst the other bills at your store.

how much is that one on Casimir... it is a great setup for a car guy, that's for sure!! attached 2 car, detached 2 car, and a storage shed out back big enough for 4 cars (or 8 if your TK). decent yard, etc.
but isn't it like $170k?

Thats really not a bad price for the place but I'm sure you could low ball them and take it off their hands. Outdated is perfect. Most chicks want to replace everything anyway.

So there goes all the savings than, may as well go buy a 250K house after your done updating and replacing everything.
VPT....you been inside it? ok then.
Don't have to, parents know the people that own it.

Alright, here ya go cashaudio:
To start with, these notebooks are not your run in the middle crap-a-ware. Full 3 year warranty. Also these notebooks are different from any other Dell, or HP notebook. They use the Intel Viib, which Intel started about a year or so ago. What that means is all of the Intel Viib notebooks all use a "standard" and components can be swapped out. I cant telll you how many times a week we get a Dell, HP, or gateway notebook with a bad keyboard or something stupid, but yet it cost $200+ to fix and over a month or two to just get the part. Its stupid. So now that you understand how our notebooks are put together, here is a quick quote for ya:
Intel Core 2 Duo T5600 Notebook
1024mb DDR2 Ram
100GB 7200RPM Hard Drive
15.4? WS-XGA LCD Display
Intel Extreme Graphics
CD/DVD-Burner
Memory Card Reader
56k v.92 Modem
10/100 Ethernet Card
802.11g Wireless Card
Microsoft Windows Vista Premium Edition
Microsoft Office 2003 Installed
Norton Anti-Virus 2007 (Full subscription)
3-Year Parts and Labor Warranty
Notebook Carrying Case
TOTAL System cost: $1250
