Is this offer also for full price buyout?  I'm not eligible for an upgrade but I don't mind extending my contract.

it depends on which carrier u have.. Verizon doesnt do early upgrades so wouldnt be able to.. but att does do early upgrade so u should be able to get discount if u extend ur contract.. However I beleive that bbs price for iphone 5 is 699 as opposed to apple 649.. so doesnt make sense..

Thanx for the breakdown,  although I'm not sure what you mean.

With Verizon,  I can (and did) go to verizon.com and order an iPhone at full price. It will extend my contract for 2 years from that date.

My question is, if I buy an iPhone at bb and accept to extend my contract (but I won't get discounted pricing), will I still get $50 off?

Either way, like you pointed out,  its $50 more expensive at bb so it's not worth it.

If I get this with verizon as I am eligible for a upgrade and than change back to my old non smartphone will I still have to pay the data? Or will I be able to pay what I was paying untill now? (I'm on a family plan)

With Sprint the data plan only changes when you activate, so if you purchase online then flip the phone or use it for a different like your plan doesn't change.

I want to order this now but it seems you only get the $100 BB credit when you order from rewardzonemobile but it's going for $199 there. What am I missing?

ETA: Also the points seem to be Best  buy mobile solutions points instead of rewards zone points
