Up to 830 is because if you buy 12mini it will have trade in credit or only $730 and not $830 and it you buy 12pro or pro max then you will only get $830 and rest will be on you. That's what upto $830 means so yes iPhone 8 will get you upto $830 depending on the device you choose

Where is Costco? They use to have similar deal as Tmobile but not lately. Wonder if we didn't kill the golden goose by canceling "new line" after getting the rebate.

For those of you trying to get a phone from SWAPPA like a iPhone 8 or S9 series, make sure you do order from an individual seller where the item/images clearly display the listing number.

In that case it's a unique listing offer and the IMEI will be displayed on the sales page right after your purchase. If you order good quality or spend $10 more for mint you should be golden. Once purchased on the sales page you will see the serial number (IMEI):

If you order from an enterprise seller with generic images and none displays the unique listing number the IMEI will NOT show up and you may have to wait until they are back in the office on Monday and the deal could be over.

Quote from sbhtx11 :
Thank you very much SD community for all the helpful comments and tips. I was about to do this online on T-mobile website and read a comment about Costco doing it with $30 Costco cash card, went with that option.
Will be trading in two XRs for $159 each and ordered two 12s at Costco Wiresless kiosk. Got trade in shipping labels, shipping envelopes and paperwork.
No shipping charges when ordered from Costco. Activation fees waived off.

All done in about 30 min.

T-mobile account history correctly says-$27.96 credit for 24 months for each line.
(27.96x24=671.04
+159 XR trade in value
=$830

Thanks. Happy Mother's Day!
Thanks. Your post made me decide to go with Costco. Will go today.
Was the Costco cash card automatic when you made the purchase?


also, the shipping stuff, they gave you 2 labels? 1 per device or 1 label for both devices.
also, did they give you an estimate on when you will get the new phones?
thanks again!

I think you have to specifically ask them to drop ship it.

No need to add a line. There's another promotion that requires it, and that's probably what you're seeing.

All my five lines have amounts due and monthly credit attached. I can just pay off online so it's no longer on EIP and then do this deal. How quickly after I pay off the balances before I can order new phones to get new credit for EIP?
I think technically immediately, but I personally have waited a day or two in the past.

I ordered an iPhone 12 early this morning with $0 down payment but when I tried to order another it asked for $500 down payment. Anyone else experience this and how does the down payment work?
It depends on your internal credit limit with T-Mobile and how many open/active EIP plans you have. If you pay another one down then there won't be a down payment on the next trade likely.

Two separate shipping labels for two trade ins.

Costco card isn't available right away, we have to claim it later, they printed instructions to claim two separate $30 Costco cards.

Free shipping option would take 4-5 days to get the new phones.

Good luck!

Yes. You need to have physical phone to give them IMEI to take this deal before it's expired.

If you are doing a trade in store, you need to have the device with you.
If you are doing a trade in online, you need to have the IMEI of the device you are trading in.

Swappa usually gives you the IMEI when you purchase a device through their site, before it ships. Obviously this would only qualify to be used online, since the promotion ends tomorrow.
