Quote from Dexmaus :
I have a S20 FE, the trade in value shows $600, and their S21 FE is only $499. Is this a no brainer? what's the catch? do they give me a giftcard for the difference in price?
It will depend probably, for S21 BB employee showed me the screen how it applied the credit which was $240 (same as what I would get if I were to order online) +$60 bonus and then $500 coupon from Samsung. When they processed the deal she first scanned the coupon and it applied those $500 first, then she scanned the GC which had $300. In your case it will be GC amount close to what BB shows when you try to do trade in online plus some small bonus and rest on a coupon, if they do coupon first then GC my guess whatever gets left on the card is yours since in my case it used up whole $300 but she still asked if I want to keep it lol. From my understanding taxes could also be paid by leftover amount as well.

What is the difference between Best Buy and Samsung deal? This one better???
Depends which phone you get and which you have as trade in but in case of BB you turn in your trade in and it gets approved right at the store so no dealing with mailing it in and hope for nothing to happen, you also get phone that same moment so no waiting (again depending if they have it in stock).

what is a good work around for this Sammy $500 coupon. how can we get/convert that into a BB $500 gc.
Not sure since it's just shown as discount on my receipt (not even as GC of any kind), so probably none since I doubt BB will consider refunding any part of it especially considering it's not produced by their system but instead provided by Samsung.

Thanks!! Are you going to get galaxy watch and buds deal with Best Buy? I don't mind to wait. I did that with Pixel 6a. I got credit by trading in my Note 9.

i don't think BB will let you buy a lower priced phone than your trade in value.

But technically trade in value is not higher since coupon makes up the most of the value, for S20FE trade in is probably around $200 or so, but maybe someone will be daring enough to find out for sure😏

Sounds pretty nice, $800 trade in value for my s21 5G is much better than the Samsung site. Having to trade it in at order time sounds a bit rough though
Much better? Not really. Samsung is giving $725 for S21 5G.

For me, this is the only way to do trade-ins now, regardless if you get less than with Samsung. Last time I did a Samsung trade-in, they lost my phone (or someone there tried to keep it) and got charged the trade-in credit for the lost/stolen device. I video recorded myself packaging the device so I was able to get them off my back, and they still sent me to collection. After threatening to sue them (with my video proof), they shamelessly admitted they had the wrong person (yeah right) and took me off the collection list. Do in-store trade-in guys.
Story doesn't make sense. Your package got stolen so Samsung charged you for the trade-in amount but they still sent you to the collections? You're either high or a terrible liar.

nowwwwww...we're [.we%27re] talkin' .that is some slick move, usually done by a pro....lol. what do you think will happen if you returned your new S21FE?
Take it FWIW, I didn't really pursue to ask what would happen if i wanted to return the S21FE.....The best buy associate that was helping me with the purchase (said she had 2+ years selling phones at BB) actually mentioned specifically that BB has come up with the coupon+GC trade policy to prevent folks from getting the full $800 GC back as a return (also, they have a restocking fee of $45 for a phone return).

Did it this afternoon and went well.

Flip 3 with some hinge damage from a drop on a rocky surface and a 3/8th inch long scratch or wear line in the screen cover/plastic and it got accepted for full credit. I was worried I would send it to Samsung and either issue would have boned me.

I brought my Flip 5g with in case they wanted to ding me heavy for the Flip 3s damage and was pleasantly surprised to get 800 credit for it too, so I bought 2.

Both came with free cases too.

I bought the Flip 5g for $350 and Flip 3 with extras(buds 2, charging pad, case) for $450, so bigtime wins to me turning these into $800x2 discounts.

Dude, your trade-in value is for the fold, not the flip.

You're the one that must high if you didn't understand what I wrote; it's as easy as day if it's happened to you. I shipped my like-new mint condition trade-in phone in the same package that they sent my new purchased phone, Samsung excepted the phone and sent me a: "We are pleased to confirm receipt of your trade-in device Galaxy blablabla... out technicians will test your trade-in to confirm blablabla...

Next Samsung email: "You agreed to send a trade-in device as part of order blablabla... we have not been able to complete the process... Samsung attempted to charge your payment method for $550 (the trade-in credit difference, since they lost my phone or stole it). Unfortunately, your payment was declined blablabla... if we cannot successfully process the charge, Samsung will have no choice but to refer your debt for collection" (unfortunately for them, fortunately for me my bank saw this as a bull sh*t transaction that didn't make sense, and blocked it).

I received a collection letter 2 months later on behalf of Samsung Inc for $550 (the trade-in credit difference), and after talking with my bank and sending Samsung an email with an attachment (video I recorded of me packaging and shipping the phone) they sent me an email 10 days later saying: "We are writing to let you know that an error was made that resulted in your name being sent by mistake to a collection agency blablabla... We sincerely apologize... (yeah, because I have evidence you fkn as*hol*s, otherwise you would've forced me to gift you $550 or ruined my credit).

Not that I give a damn whether "you" believe me or not, but all those reading this please take evidence before you ship your devices, or do in-store trade-ins where you can actually record the whole thing in-person.
