Trade-in value notes:
- In states CA (please add more), tax is charged on (price - TIV_promo).
- In states NJ, NY, tax is charged on (price - TIV_promo - TIV_normal).
- NJ: When I did an in-store pickup of an online-order, tax was automatically calculated on (price - TIV_promo - TIV_normal). But when I did an in-store purchasing today, tax was calculated on (price - TIV_promo). According to the representative, this is because TIV_normal is processes as a GC and it has to be applied after the checkout, so the tax is charged on that part. Don't know if this is all true to CA or other states.

- I've done in-store trade-ins a few times at Best Buy. They only do a cursory look at the phone, to make sure it matches the color and condition. They don't care if it is carrier locked or is still being financed. -RonaldM

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.

I use visible wireless, which uses Verizon towers but is prepaid. Does anyone know if I choose activate later if there are any strings attached or if I'll be able to just pop my visible SIM card into this new pixel phone and it will work from the get-go? In other words, I don't understand what I'm activating later on a prepaid mobile plan?
I am having a hard time letting go of my 256 GB Note10+ phone. The battery still lasts more than a day too and I have an extra MicroSD card in its slot to store all my MP3's.
Check recent comparisons pixel 7 is smoother.
You can remove anything you think is bloat on the s22 so its a non issue.
- i want a good experience out of the box. Don't want to hack the phone, instal custom roms etc. Don't want Samsung asking me which app to use when I want to make a phone call. It's all a PITA
If you want a good experience out of the box how are you promoting the pixel at all? Every pixel at launch has had issues out of the box. Most were fixed fairly quickly but looking at the pixel 6 some never got fixed because it is the hardware. Hardly the great out of the box experience you are trying to make it out to be.
I've owned the pixel 1,2,3, and 6. The first three were great but not problem free.
3. You get a BB gift card for the TIV of the iphone 12 max pro
>>>> will we get $790 or $490? ($300 is actually a BB promotional trade in bump)

Also, is there an easy way to liquidate the $200 GC without selling it at a deep discount?

As for the gift card, maybe check the best value on sites that buy gift cards. you might get 85-90% of the value out of it.

For me it's not worth it. I can't really say I've ever needed more zoom in any pictures I've taken on my pixel 6 and if I really wanted I could just use my Sony camera which I almost never use. I also don't want a phone bigger than my pixel 6 and don't like curved screens. The pro has a curved screen.
Still just personal preference. Some people like the bigger sizes and take a lot of outdoor pictures from afar.
