So no watch bands and charger sent?
Hi, I just sent the watch case but with some of the deny cases here I too will be careful. I have taken extra step to have myself cover in case they lie about it that it does not power up, watch missing, and etc.

Yes, all I sent was the return slip with of the the steps checked off, the S3 Frontier watch case (make sure during your purchase you did pick the S3 as your trade-in option), and a small Posted Note about I had follow the steps, cleaned it, and put my contact info if anything was wrong. Basically, I wanted to ensure the inspector that I had did all of these steps and made extra effort to protector the watch case from getting damage during ship to them. In this hoping it give use less reason for them to deny you with false excuses.

Following for Extra Protection In Case Of A Dispute:
1) Clean the watch and take high def pictures from all sides, front, and back.
2) Capture video of the power charge percentage level, bootup power sequence.
2a) Record one on your smartphone video of the watch case condition from all directions to show proof of the good condition it has without major cracks.
3) Make sure to get your FedEx hand receipt with the tracking number (you should have this also in your return prepaid shipment label from email).
4) Take pictures with the Return slip and watch case inside the open box.
5) Maybe to finally get an edge contact a Samsung Online Chat Rep to give okay to just sent the Samsung S3 watch case and if they said that was not the correct model the Frontier make so why they said it is not qualify as it was very generic and just state Samsung S3 as not S3 Gear or anything.
6) Print out this online transcript and added to your mail return back as proof that just mailing the watch case is fine.

It is kind of evil how SEA screw some of us up on the trade-in.

Here is an online article for the same deny happening for some customer for the Samsung phone trade-in: https://www.androidpolice.com/201...rustrated/

From what many said. The Gear S3 is Samsung Gear S3 Frontier.

When mail watch like i.e. the S3 Frontier you just need to mail only the Watch S3 without the band or the charger.
NOTE:
45mm: From my back of the box size for 45mm case strap size: min 50mm to MAX 70mm.

41mm: From back of the box size 41mm case strap size: 45mm to Max 65mm.

Fit Wrist Size for 45mm Watch3 OEM Band: 50mm to 70mm.

Fit Wrist Size for 41mm Watch3 OEM Band: 45mm to 65mm


Great video on comparing the wrist size to both the 41MM and the 45MM Watch 3:

Steps for Cancellation discount:

After placing an order just try to cancel it using any of the causes (I have selected will not "deliver or ship on time"). I forgot the exact text.
After that before canceling the website offered me a 10% coupon not to cancel and keep the order.
I just accepted the order and after that, it is showing that I will get that 10% as a refund. Hope this will help.
Guys please read thread! I keep seeing the same questions getting answered and asked again and again.

MCT pay technology is old, not 100% secure and being phased out.

The frontier watch is the s3 watch, I read on different threads they are honoring the frontier s3 as a trade in.

You don't have to send accessories with trade in like charging docks or watch bands.

The main difference in these watches is the Galaxy3 is thinner, more streamlined, slightly bigger screen, more refined clicky buttons and dial, os is quicker, more sensors heart rate, blood pressure. Better sounding speaker.

I hear different things about battery life on galaxy 3, some say it has a smaller battery so less life, some say it has a smaller battery but galaxy 3 is much more efficient processors so its the same as last generation on battery life, so im not sure.
Just an FYI... Samsung Pay, a feature that I use nearly every day, on my Samsung Gear S3 Frontier watch, and this current watch features, has recently been banned from Wally World in an attempt to make people use their new store card. Makes me think twice about upgrading.

I can add multiple times and it'll show the total on the page, but when I click shopping cart, it shows nothing

EDIT: Nevermind, got it to work, but it shows up as 264 even with trade in for the cheapest option that should be 139

Samsung.com has Samsung Galaxy Watch3 on sale from $139.99 (after $200 Trade-In Credit) when you Trade-In Samsung Galaxy Watch or Gear S3. Shipping is free.

This is $30 lower than the last posted deal which has $30 instant rebate.

You can use education and military discount on top of it. Also, you can stack referral code with other discounts.

I have found that my referral coupon is not working anymore and shows invalid. I don't know why! Hopefully other SD users will be able to help. Thanks.

I called support and they told me they would escalate the situation and I would receive an email in 2-3 business days. Was yours the same?

Hmm 200 for my frontiers S3. Is there any benefit to this model? On paper the specs seem about the same if not exactly the same.

Just wondering, Gear S3 has two variants, Classic and Frontier. Both would qualify for the $200 trade- in value, wouldn't they?
