I wonder why Samsung and Best Buy don't accept Pixel 6 and 6 Pro for trade-in?

Quote from ukdragon37 :
The Galaxy S phones in the US have separate model numbers (and SKUs) for carrier-locked vs. unlocked versions. For this trade-in promo BB should only have been selling you the unlocked model, as that's what the promo specified. Likely the coupon wouldn't have worked if it was applied to the locked model.

Look at the model number on the bottom left of the barcode label on the box, beginning with "SM". If it ends in "U1" then you have the unlocked model, "U" for locked.
This is correct. Coupon won't scan for carrier locked versions

Deeply regret getting this for good trade in alone. It has become impossible to sell. Market is flooded with $600 new flip 4 and $1000 fold 4s. I just wanted to get a decent resale value after trading in a phone but the net is 0 and lot more effort.

I was able to unload flip 4s for $700.

Can anyone tell me if I can get both the 10% off 2 phones and the activate now discount? I'm thinking of getting the S22U and the Flip4.

gubbarupdate : picked up a 22 and 22u in same transaction.. the 10% was showing up there but i think when they scan samsung 500 coupon, it overrides the 10%.. not sure why. i realized when i come home.

Net i had to pay 128 odd out of pocket for s22 and s22u. Its all right.
The 10% discount for multiple phones does still apply when you're doing this trade-in promotion offer, but it's applied AFTER the coupon has lowered the price of the phones. So, in my case I traded in a S20 and a Note 20 5G on a pair of S22s. The price of the S22s was showing up as $629, originally (when buying 2) -- taking $70 off each of the phone's regular $699 price. But after applying the $400 and $500 coupons (from the phone trade ins), the price dropped to $269 and $179 (10% off the coupon-reduced prices of $299 and $199).

If anybody's able to get it to work differently, I'd love to hear what you got.

S22 Ultra 256 GB $999.99 - BB activate now price


Got my $600 trade in, S22 Ultra $999.99. Tried a couple times to sway getting it for the $949 price which is what initially drew me on (all on a fluke SD's search to see if any Samsung deals were happening. Finally one without "a new line, bill credits, or other big hoops to have to jump through!). Tax on Balance after trade in value, not current retail value.

Is it worth getting the Galaxy buds 2 for $50 when buying the new phone? BB regular price is $150.

i swear. i may just keep it for better trade in offer during thanks giving...with it being a current flagship, and on top tier plan at tmo, waiting it out will probably work out better. hoping i can swap this shit out for iphone and that will sell close to msrp.

I have a 20 ultra. Want s22 ultra. On tmobile. What will it cost me. Plz help πŸ™ƒ
Samsung trade in value
S20 Ultra is $600 (part of that value is from Samsung with their coupon through Best Buy, maybe $500/$600. The rest of the value towards $800 will be on a BB gift card.

Choose unlocked phone

Example:

$500 Samsung coupon TIV
$100 Best Buy gift card value
= $600

$1,049.99 S22 Ultra 128GB. (Price as of 9/15/22)
-500. Samsung TIV
-100. BB GC
= 449.99. Balance
+ 27.00. (Ex: 6% state sales tax on $449.99
= 476.98. Some states might charge tax on retail value)

How's them apples 🍎 for ya?!

I didn't wind up with an additional activation charge on my BB receipt for Tmobile. Swapped SIM card in store. Some others in this thread previously did and contacted TMob for a credit. Seems most were successful with getting the credit on their billing statement.

Anyone try to/have to exchange for a different device while using this promo? I bought a fold4 with in store trade in and the hinge is defective. I'm not sure how they'll process the exchange with the $300 trade in gift card plus the $500 Samsung coupon. I see people saying Bestbuy can't re activate the $500 coupon. Not sure how an exchange will work in my case.
