So I did not see anyone else post this so I thought I would share.
I bought the upgraded Samsung - Galaxy Z Fold3 5G 512GB version that is normally $1899

Best buy has on sale with AT&T for $1499 and that's a $400 savings
FYI no expandable memory so consider that if you go with the 256 gb version but that would save you $100.
This brought my bill to $41.66 instalment plan over 36 months(Yes this is a long time but this phone will still preform well in 3 years).
I THAN used the trade-in program and I mailed in a S10+ and got $1000 off through installment payments in the form of a credit of $27.78 over 36 months. This means my phone Z-fold only cost me $13.89 per month for 36 months.
Trade-in that qualifies are S9 or newer and some iphones too. Trade in needs to be in good working order and worth $95 or more to get the $1000 promo.

Happy to share screenshots of the phone bill if you want to see it but I am stoked I got this phone for cheaper than most phones.
Best buy told me this would not work but I did it and I can confirm it worked!
ALSO, no longer available but since I preordered my phone I ALSO got a $200 Samsung store credit where I got a free watch too.

You are paying $324 for insurance over 3 years.
It's because people give in and buy regardless. If they said no the companies would have to come up with smaller terms or better incentives. Att was one of the first to start 30 months payments, now that T-Mobile seems to catch up they decided to go further lol.
From my previous experiences with insurance you have to read ALL small details to realize that sometimes the insurance could be useless anyways because they can claim damage under certain reasons not covered by them. Even Apple care thing allows two claims per 2 yr period so basically 1 claim per year with just lower fees mostly for repairs on top how much you already paid for the device and insurance.

Insurence always try to get the best out of you but it's my only option considering the MSRP for the phone.
With all this said to get the 512 GB version I have not found a cheaper way of getting it.
Lastly should I have NOT posted this deal? Seems like the best deal for this phone but I have gotten 2 thumbs down for it. Should I remove the post?

Also need to know how much the deductible is to replace it under insurance.
Looks like $299

Lately it's been more often than not when carriers substitute contracts into device payments agreement, I think it's a loophole they exploit in order to make it look like they don't force people into contracts. Usually in good old days contracts lasted 2 years tops now they're bending it into up to 3 years with this scheme.
