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

any activation fees? and how long would i have to keep the new line open for?
I activated it on my existing TMobile line. No Fee.
Initially they tried to use new SIM but failed so they let me use my existing SIM

Actually $300 Off considering Non Activation Price is Full Price.

But they were very sorry for it, it seems some genuine error which even their backend also couldn't fix. Also, I could the store employee helping me once he understood the deal and made sure I could get it. The manager even commented, He should also get the deal as it is so good.

E.g. if one have Phone in $800 category, S22 ultra can be as low as $99.99
Yeah too good to pass up. My z flip 5G is worth $800 trade in. Just wish they could order the 256gb Ultra. Oh well

Oh Yes, if it is unavailable Online they cannot order it in store. But if it is not available in store but available Online, they can still Order and let you give in store trade it. But they may take you phone being traded at the time of order only.

Can anyone post a receipt / invoice? My local best buy is telling me that I can't buy an unlocked phone and activate it with Verizon and still have it considered an unlocked phone. Also didnt know how to get the $400 trade in for my S10+ and kept saying that it was $120.

That makes no sense. Just look at the product page for the unlocked s22u, it's a different product page then the Verizon s22, it's even a different sku/model.

Even with a receipt that wont work, they will make up another excuse

You just need to go to another store or find someone helpful (go another time for a diff employee) and keep trying.

It is a hassle but this is what happens when you run into unmotivated employee

You're not going to get it for 699 without activating it. It's unlocked so you can do whatever you want afterward.

Any brilliant mind can suggest the cheapest plan where I can create a line for 1 month just for the unlocked trade in deal?
