Rough Math
Example 1: Single line w/ used 6s+port in
Assume iPhone 6s trade in and port in your number that has a current monthly rate of $30/month, Further assume you only have a single line
you essentially will spend net $170 and gave up (trade in) that iPhone 6s, but get an iPhone 11 after three months at T-Mobile (Magenta, $70/month). More line will result in better saving. Detailed calculation is elaborated in this post:
https://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=
Example 2: Buy and sell
$ 560 - 4 used Iphones 6s ($140) from Amazon
$ 420 - 3 Months of Magenta Plan for 4 lines ($140 w/ 3rd line free)
$2750 - 4 Iphones 11 64 GB inc tax ($687.5. $630 if no tax)
______
$3730 Out of pocket (Sum above)
-2320 Rebates ($580x4)
-2000 Sell 4 Iphones 11, 3 months later ($500 after seller fee)
= $ 590 Profit
$80 Iphone 6S from TotalWireless https://shop.totalwirel

Most of the questions asked here are either in the promotion posting, or are just stupid. Read before posting.
The document tells you which items will be accepted for trade. You can NOT do a IP6, or SE, or Samsung, etc.
It really does not matter how much they give you for the trade. The total rebate you will get will total $580.
Yes, this promotion is for people adding T-Mobile new lines. Duh! Think!
Simple math tells you that trading in an XS or XR is probably not going to make sense in most cases. So, if then don't. Duh!
Nobody has asked yet, but yes the phone must be paid for. And yes it must work. And yes it must not be broken. Duh!
And yes, you must have a Costco card to pay for the phone.
How much does ___ cost at Costco? Easy - go to the website. Prices are listed.
iPhone XS through Apple gets you $500
iPhone 8 through this Costco deal gets you $580
iPhone XS through this Costco deal gets you $580

"Iphone 6s plus, Iphone 7, Iphone 7 plus(2)"=100+150+200*2=$650
Feed back this number to your calculation, each iPhone 11 net cost change from 279 (=$1116.5/4) to $441(=($1116.5+650)/4). Nobody call it a bad deal, considering you get alose to half price and there is one Pro Max, but just make the math correct and not get false joy.
Iphone 11 - $629
2 mo service - $60
Rebate - $580
Total cost - $109 excl tax.
I don't have to spend $699 to upgrade to 11.
My rep told me the same thing. iphone 11 64 gb in black.

iPhone 6s for 25$. But you need to get the 50$ plan and a 25$ activation fee. Total comes out to ~ 112$ with taxes for a brand new iPhone 6s. You also have to port-in a number.
PS: You can get one off of ebay. I actually bought 3 ATT numbers. Used only 1 for my use. I have 2 and willing to sell each for 3$ Amazon GC. Let me know if anyone's interested
Do we legally own this device and can legally trade in for costco offer ?
Did you actually trade in a boost phone for this offier ?
I was kinda curious to know how did it show up for cust rep when he entered the IMEI for boost phone on his device.
If anybody else can pitch in based on same experience , that can also help !
Yesterday on the phone KioskGirl reported they were down to their last 4 XRs, 3 128GB and 1 64GB. Uncertain as to whether the deal would be extended, and if they would even get any 11s restocked, I went right over.
KioskGirl was great but their ordering system sucked, so we had to input the information for each trade-in four times because the system kept crashing. She also had a hard time finding the right way to enter the Magenta plan for 4 phones. She didn't ask to see the trade-in phones, and I handed her a sheet of paper with IMEI, color and storage for each. Interestingly, I got a $31 credit for two trade-ins and 0 for the other two.
When I bought the phones I was happy to see the XR 128s rang up at $579, instead of the $599 I expected.
3 hours later I left with 4 phones and all of the documents listed in the Wiki.
I would have liked to have gotten 11s but this is probably an even better deal with the XRs, especially at the price.
Thanks to OP and all that contributed, and to those of you that asked the same question for more than the first time, please read at least the Wiki and use the search function. Mom can't make your sandwiches forever.
