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

I'm worried about these horror stories of trade-ins being rejected once it's out of return window. Not sure if things have improved yet.
They accepted my Tab S7 when I traded in for the Tab S8. My S7 had 3 bright spots on the screen and I was worried they would deny it.

No, everything has to be done at the store.

Replicating this deal is not easy for sure.

Most Bestbuy employees not aware of it and only few even work in Mobile. So to get them Trade-In value is difficult job. Your best bet is if the employee even if not aware, is open to listening (I find it the hardest part.) Because if they will listen, they can easily find this.

Next, New lower Price on Unlocked Phones are with Activation since May 9th (before this it was like instant discount), So they may ask you to activate. Issue I faced was I was told, this Activation Discount is separate deal and cannot be combined. I had to persist and even go to another store to finally get both enhanced Trade-In value and Activation discounted price.

Good Luck!!!

Can you please elaborate on "enhanced Trade-In Value". Is it the same as Samsung trade-in deal listed for all eligible phones. I thought the deal is pretty straight forward as displayed on the web site. Order it via "Activate Today" price selection and Samsung Trade-in discount?
