Deal Details
Increased in-store trade-in value for smart phones and reduced price of S22 phones

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/clp-...1537879921

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sams...Id=6494440

I have an older Galaxy Note 10, BestBuy is offering $450 for in-store trade-in. Unlocked 256 gb S22 is has reduced -100 price at $750

$750 + $50 tax - $450 (trade-in) = $350

Samsung has an elevated trade-in currently as well, but they are only offering $375 on my Note 10.

for details of what to ask for from the reps at bestbuy to get the deal to work.

Seems like at some bestbuys, you can trade in multiple phones YMMV

Will Bestbuy accept a phone on Verizon device payments? Looking to buy an unlocked s22u but have a few more device payments with bill credits basically zeroing out my payments each month. I'd be buying the phone unlocked "activate later"

I see the $200 off Samsung phones ends tomorrow

I was just able to do this. When they were setting up the trade in, they offered the standard $169 for my note 10. After i pointed out that there should be a trade in promo for unlocked Samsung phones, they looked around for a bit, figured it out, and gave the full $450 for the note 10. All of the local best buys were sold out everything other than the Ultra models, so they're shipping the S22 128gb to the house for $249 out the door.

Figured that's the highest the note 10 trade value will ever be, and four years of updates for the S22 means I'll be good for a long time. I'll miss the stylus, but the Ultra is just too big for my taste. I liked the Note 10's unique combination of small size and stylus. Didn't like the resulting battery life though...
could you give more detail how you get it to order while out of stock?
I tried yesterday but the employee told me they cant trade in while the phone is out of stock etc..
Also are in in the NY/NJ area (where most s22 is out of stock) if you are could you let me know which store you went?

Thanks

When I ordered my fold3 though trade in they asked me which color/storage size I wanted. They told me they didn't have it in stock in store and offered to ship it to me. They took my trade in and provided the enhanced trade in value on a gift card. On a separate transaction they charged me for the phone and used the gift card. Since they were shipping the phone to me I did have to leave my trade in with them at the time but got a receipt and print out with the order/shipping info.

If it says sold out on the website, they can't order it. If it says backorder, they can. They ordered me a 256gb s22+ in black. That was the only color available to order at the time.

It looks like they dropped the $200 discount for unactivated phones.

Did they take your phone being traded at the time or Order or let you trade in when new Device is being picked up?
