Deal Details
The $100 off T-Mobile and Sprint iPhone 13 and 13 Mini back again at Best Buy.

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/appl...Variations

Some of the Trade in Values are much less this time (XR down to $250 and iP11 down to $350). . .some are higher like $640 for Galaxy S21 trade in. Perfect if you got the XR cheap 2 months ago, traded in for clearance S21, which can be traded in + $60 for an iP13. Can't trade the S21 on the base iP13 mini as TIV exceeds phone purchase price, but you could do it on the 256GB version.

The $640 Trade in Value on the S21 is as big a deal as the $100 off the iPhone.
And the $640 TIV seems good towards most TMO phones over $640, i.e. S22 line, Pixel 6

EDIT: $640 TIV is only for $128GB of S21. 256GB version fetches only $420. QA Note: The $640 is only for the Black S21 color. The other colors are $420

You are the reason I couldn't get any XRs thanks a lot man 🙄
lol hardly, you prob just had bad timing and missed all their restocks.
I bought several phones over the course of a month.

they've raised the price now to 199, so I definitely won't be competing with you to buy them anymore lol.

Maybe they might drop the price again after the SE3 releases, maybe keep an eye on that page hehe.

How's this a deal, much less a slick-deal?
This is a deal, and maybe even a slickdeal, IF AND ONLY IF:

1) You have an S21 to trade; Got an S21 from the closeouts or other deal AND
2) Because the $100 off is back after disappearing for a couple of weeks
EDIT: 3) Other are reporting that it's a pricing error and a manager would have to push it through, which is unlikely.


So, I guess it's not that slick after all.


For everyone else, as far as I can tell, there's no way to make it slick. XR people at $121, 140, 150 are worse off doing this. Same for every other config that was decent, such as iPhone SE 2nd Edition.

I was excited, but there's no way for me to make this work at a reasonable discount even with my leftover XRs and Giftcards from other Best Buy deals

Since nobody else is reporting with an actual DP.

The Trade in value is an error in BB trade in system online and in store. When you goto trade in your S21, the system will show you are actually trading in a S21 Ultra. The rep will likely not process your trade because it's a S21 and not an Ultra.

It might be possible that a Manager will still push it through but highly YMMV.

I repeat, their system in store will show that you are trading in a S21 Ultra. You are free to try your luck but this is a highly YMMV slick deal.

This is true, it showed up as 21 ultra when I went to the store.

You're right, the papers I signed showed the trade in is for S21 Ultra. Despite this, they didn't deny the trade-in or sale (probably because they didn't notice it either). Hopefully they can't back-charge me for the additional cost.

I did this deal and manager had to override but may be they did not notice the error. I did not sign any papers though

It's the same Best Buy Trade-In Receipt I received digitally from my last trade in in December. I had to sign the register and they printed out the documents for me vs. having it emailed to me last time. We should be good even though I don't see S21 in any of the confirmation emails.

Placed an order last night, but got cancelled several minutes later. Tried to place a new order today, but got the "Duplicate orders found" error. Any suggestions on what to do? Thanks.
