Thanks everyone for your help

Basically after an hour of wasting time (should have read up on it a bit)

Realized the the trade in and and purchase are two separate transactions

In the trade in you have to convince the rep to use the code "samsung"

But in my case they said it wasn't stackable but the rep was able to use the code and gave me a $800 gift card for my z flip3

So now I can just order the ultra online

Or keep the gift card

No you just activate a new phone on the line, read this thread will give you more info

Yes you need to trade in the phone and get a BB gift card then
ask them to order an unlocked phone to ship to your home or pickup in store
read the above thread
Thanks, but not sure if this way works for me as I need the phone to use until the new phone arrives. I'll stop by bestbuy store and ask them.

I see a lot of Galaxy S22 line deals lately. Does that mean these models are a flop for Samsung or they're performing less than expected in terms of how well they're selling? Seems like the line just came out and now they're discounted- or is this normal?
They do seem pretty desperate to sell these, I think it is because of the new processor. Here an article about the Korean market:

No iPhone 13 trade offers is bizarre.
iPhones sell better, are in way more demand, and hold their value, unlike Android devices.

The s22 has had bad press since launch. Samsung keeps running promos and deep discounts to keep units moving. It is merely smoke and mirrors to keep their sales figures looking strong.

I have sold 3 iPhone 13, 1 iPhone 13 Mini, and 2 iPhone 11 phones while the one new s22 I have is still unsold with zero offers. Nobody wants the thing.

Thank you, finally got the information we need to replicate the deal Applause
Depend on the Bestbuy store, my does not allow me to activate unlocked to get the discounted price. I had to go to another Bestbuy store to return the unlocked S22 to get my $800 gift card trade in value and then exchange for an unlocked S22U with activation at the lower discounted price. Wasted a lot of my time and had to insist the S22 purchased at first store was defective for no restocking fee.

This is true. I occasionally sell phones from here or my own phones, not a scalper lol and not doing it for living. But you are right about the Samsung phones. My last iPhone 13 took 4 days to sell and it was locked to ATT, but S22 almost took one month and it was unlocked.

Good luck finding Best Buy employees and managers with functioning brain cells who can actually do this deal. I tried a few times with no success. Waste of time dealing with these morons. Circus chimps would have done better.

Best Buy just lowered their unlocked S22 line phones.

S22 $649.99 is $150 off MSRP. . .S22 unlocked 256GB is better at same $649.99

S22+ $749.99 is $250 off MSRP. . .S22+ unlocked 256GB is better at same $749.99

S22U 128GB is $300 off MSRP

S22U 256GB is $400 off MSRP @ $899 & S22U 512GB $400 off @ $999 (courtesy of mtran1977)

AGAIN, THESE ARE ALL FOR UNLOCKED, ACTIVATE NOW phone purchases. . .

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-galaxy-s22-128gb-unlocked-green/6494436.p?skuId=6494436#anchor=... [bestbuy.com]

on top of this, Samsung is offering up to $800 in trade in credit towards (In-Store Trade and Purchase only) of unlocked Samsung phone (S22 line, Z Flip 3, Z Fold 3, S21FE phones)

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/clp-cell-phones/unlocked-samsung-galaxy-trade-in/pcmcat1621537879921.c?... [bestbuy.com]

This pairs well with all of those here that bought Z Flip 3's recently, with or without added $50 watch deal (now expired), that now wish to trade in that Z Flip 3 for $800 Gift card towards purchase of an unlocked S22 line phone at sales prices as listed above. . .
Where do you see the trade-in for S21FE? What is the TIV for S21FE?

Has anyone tried ordering online with the trade-in for the flip3 (TIV $700 online vs $800 in-store) and pick up in the store? Will this avoid all the hassles? Or they will have to do the same trade-in progress when I go pick up the phone regardless of what the online invoice says? Don't mind paying the extra $100 for a smooth transaction. TIA!

I think this is handled by Bestbuy employees and majority of them not aware of the promo. I visited 4 of the bestbuys and all have BB employees, IMO there should be a Samsung rep who can handle promo Samsung deals.
