Good deal alert: Amazon slashes price of Fire Phone to $199, GSM unlocked, with a free year of Prime

As if there needed to be more proof that Amazon's foray into the smartphone hardware has been a complete disaster, the company has now slashed the price of the device to almost as low as it can go.
Amazon is offering the 32GB model, GSM unlocked for $199 (originally priced at $599 unlocked), including a free year of Amazon Prime, which is $99 per year.

If you were already a Prime member, the device is effectively down to $100, well within the price range of anyone looking for a smartphone with mid to high-end specs.

If the "fire" sale on the Fire Phone, interests you, check the page here while supplies last.

You mean "If you were NOT already a Prime member?"

Meaning your next year is free, unless of course you did not want to keep Prime :)

Thanks, now it makes sense, I read the "small print"...:)
" Prime members who purchase a Fire will receive an additional year of Prime when their existing membership is up for renewal."
