Okay, I figured out how to find out which trade-in box corresponds to which order.

1. Go to the "Order Details" page for your order on bestbuy.com. This page likely says "Shipping Kit on its way" for the trade in status.
2. Open Developer Console in Chrome. Navigate to the "Networks" tab and reload the page.
3. Search for "trade" in the search box.
4. You should see 3 results - the third begins with "2002..." for me. Click on this one.
5. Click on "tradeInStatusInfo" -> "fulfillment" -> "tracking".

You will see the tracking number of the return shipping UPS label. You should also see a "isBoxShipped" field that likely reflects if your trade-in kit has shipped yet.
Best Buy trade-in process has not changed since iPhone 13 trade-in deal last summer, so all these following tips still apply to this Pixel trade-in. This is for in-store trade-in, I have not done mail in trades with Best Buy.

Use Activate Later option when pre-ordering to get full trade in values listed in promotion

$200 BB Gift Card plus decent trade in values

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/prom...ixel-7-pro

They also have $100 BB Gift card plus trade in for Pixel 7

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank RonaldM

Also, it looks like Best Buy is providing the option to mail in the trade-in or trade-in at the store.

Any idea why they don't have an option to trade in a Pixel 6a? I see earlier "a" variants are available for trade in, but not the 6a…

Where are you seeing the $200 gift card? When I browse the pixel 7 phones the only thing I see is $100 gift card for the 128 gb Pixel 7 (not pro), but Obsidian, only.

Your trade-in value: $475.00
Galaxy S22 Ultra 256GB Black

Weak. Google offering $650

edit: never mind must select "activate later" and then you get the $725

Corrected to more accurately the gift card amounts, depending on the model.

I just checked with AT&T, and they're offering $800 off with Pixel 6 Pro trade in. Basically just adding $3.89mo to my existing plan.

It shows as $610 TIV for the S22 Ultra on the list. If there's also a $200 gift card then that's huge. But there's some confusion here because some people (like me) are not seeing the $200 gc.


edit: went to my desktop browser and now see that if you give it a moment the $200 gc offer comes up after a bit. It also looks like it's $200 off the Pro, and $100 off the not pro - and I'm only seeing "activate today" options. edit edit: there's also activate later at same price.

Where do you see the trade-in at the store option? I honestly would prefer that than going with the mail-in option.

EDIT: Never mind. I just saw this on their site "If you choose store pickup, you'll bring your trade-in device to the store when your new device is ready for pickup. If you choose shipping, we'll email instructions for shipping your trade-in device to us after your new device is delivered."

With Pixel 6 trade in and gift card, it's nearly a free upgrade to 7.
Odd the white 7 128 doesn't get gc.
