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.

Quote from Vonlutt :
Verizon gave me $700 credit for upgrading an existing line for a pixel 4xl. Seems to be the best deal I found when comparing.
Seems like a good deal but not amazing, because you are on installment credits for 36 months. You used up your upgrades for that long and will lose that value and have to pay the rest of the phone price if you switch carriers. And you will also pay $30 upgrade/activation fee on your next bill. The best Verizon upgrade deals get you $800 or more on 24 months. Those happen several times each year, but is more common for Samsung or iPhone because it seems those companies pay the carriers to do it. And the offers for older Pixels vary.

Hmmm. $790 for my iPhone 12 Pro Max. I'd love to have the 7 Pro as a backup primary (currently using P6a) but I don't want to give up iOS as I use the whole Apple ecosystem extensively. So my conundrum is how to maximize this deal while being able to buy a lower end iOS device to continue as my main primary while waiting for next year when I purchase the iPhone 15. Unfortunately, there's no decent trade in offers for my 6a…. Hmm. I'll have to continue thinking and researching.

Really interesting..so we're NOT actually paying tax on the full amount for the phone? That's a welcome surprise for me.
Laws in some states are written to only apply to wireless carrier bundles. So if you're buying an unlocked phone at regular retail, then the special sales tax rules don't apply. It's just a normal discount price.

Thanks you and others for the input. Pulled the trigger for 7 pro. I have feeling that I will regret and still prefer Samsung as I'm not tech smart so I don't care about whatever bootloader or root means. But for small upgrading fee, I would like to try.
Well if you aren't tech savvy, you may actually like the Pixel more, as it's got less things to learn how to use. Samsung likes to pack every bell and whistle they can think of into their phones and the end result is more stuff than anyone really wants to mess with and bugs because of it. Pixels aren't dumbed down by any means but Google is pretty thoughtful about what they add to the UI.

They're also insanely easy to get a good picture out of the camera. Double tap power button to bring up the camera, point, shoot. That's about it.

$490 for an iPhone 11 + $100 gift card = $590

$660 Pixel 7 (after tax)

$70 for a brand new Pixel, hell yeah!
Actually, you will also get tax back on the $490 iPhone 11 trade in.
So you are only get tax on $110 ($600 - $490) so around $8 to $10 tax depends on where you are.

Does "Activate Later" really need an activation later with a major carrier and any impact to the gift card if the phone is not activated? Or is it fully unlocked and can be used with any major or MVNO prepaid carrier at any point?
Fully unlocked. Doesn't matter when you activate it and you will still get the gift card.

iPhone SE 3rd gen trade in value $475 at BB vs. $340 at Google. The only issue is BB doesn't have the option to select other carriers other than AT&T, Verizon, T-mobile, Sprint... And my iPhone SE 3rd gen is from Redpocket.
