I was on the same boat but BB paid me to get a newer phone and can use s22+ to trade in next year for better price than s21+ or maybe another trade to s22U on this black Friday, so why not.
I'm planning to go with this route as well and trade in again for S23U.
I don't think you can trade in S22+ with the S22U (if it does become available again), because S22+ is not on the trade in list.

Bought the 256GB S22+ yesterday for $800 after work when the best buy wasn't busy.

The helpful mobile associate explained why they don't like to fulfill this promotion because selling phones or accessories outright doesn't net them any commissions, only activations and plans do. That's why they don't like getting flooded with trade ins (she admitted it was a good deal) because it may make her miss a commission sale.

Overall she was a pro at it and we finished in 10 min. This was the process.

1. Asked for my phone # to pull up my best buy rewards account
2. Traded in my S21
3. The system generated a $200 physical best buy gift card
4. Ordered the $800 S22+ (256GB) unlocked to be shipped to my home since the store is out of it
5. System automatically applies a $600 coupon
6. Remaining total is $200+tax
7. Associate applied the $200 gift card she loaded for me from step 3 and I just paid the remaining tax

Of course if you got the 128GB for $50 less, you'd keep the remaining balance on the gift card. No need to pull up my postpaid carrier plan
You have to drop the phone off at the time of tradein? What can we do if this is the only phone we got? Can we wait for s22 to deliver?

Was this a phone you got off Amazon or was it your personal? Are you just phoneless now?

They all lied, NYC BBY's have been on to this promo since the beginning. They are hoarding the phones for themselves and are coming up with excuses to not do the deal. Managers are in on it as well.
Quote from MadCoolNY :
Here is my experience with doing this deal in NYC. The first store closest to my home that I went to yesterday, said their trade in system was down and told me to come back tomorrow. So I went back the next day, and it was still down. Went to another store a mile away, the people there said they didn't take Samsung s21 anymore due to how many people was trading them in and even showed their screen to me. They said that this is true for other store as well. I was thinking hmm maybe I am too late to the deal but decided to check back to this thread and didn't see anyone mentioning this problem. I didn't see the deal as expired so I decided to check one final store.

The last store I went to had me go to customer service to do the trade in. The rep there said my s21 was only worth $200. So I mention this promotion to them, but they didn't know what it was and walked me over to another phone rep by their mobile area. This rep knew what she was doing and knew about the promo right away. I did the deal with her easily, but she said I couldn't stack the activation bonus. At this point, I was just happen to get the deal to work and didn't want to take a chance with the s22+ sale ending on the 10th. Another thing was that she said she couldn't get the system to give me the remaining balance on a gift card for some reason and suggested that I get a case to not lose the balance. I needed a case anyway so went with an otterbox and paid a small difference.

Love this deal! wish I was able to get the t-mobile activation bonus but I am still happy with pretty much a free upgrade to a new and better phone.


Man which NYC stores if I may ask? BEWARE the LIC one, as I saw a family walk out after the sales associates there huddled to try and bundle an insurance package as a requirement for trade-in.

You have to trade in the phone then and there. You're either going to be phoneless or you need to have a backup phone in the interim.

Yes, I want the 256GB S22+ but they are out of stock in store, so the rep ordered the phone and ship to store for pickup next week.
Is there a way to keep tradein until phone comes in?

I posted while I was a few pages back specific to the person I quoted. It was a coincidence it appeared under a post that answered the question. Rufkm, chill!

Regarding the $250 T-Mobile Activation. Did this deal on Tuesday after everything finalized, I too was surprised to see the add'l $250 TM activation. Here's the breakdown.

Galaxy S22+ 128GB $99.99
$999.99 Was Price
$250.00 Sale Discount
$250.00 T-MOB ACTVN 1
$400.00 SAMSG COUPON CPN BUNDL 2

Subtotal: $99.99
Sales Tax: $6.00
=============
Total $105.99

Pay with $200 BB from the TIV
Balance gc left is $94.01
Tax is calculated on the phone after a bunch of disc.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today 11/10/22 I went into BB again around 6pm to do the same deal but this time I'm getting the S2+ 256GB. The rep who helped me was very knowledgeable did everything correct. Accept one part, that I fail to mention the T-MO upgrade. So after the receipt was printed out and I compared with my old receipt. I didn't see the add'l $250. I showed to the rep the comparison. She was so helpful, she canceled the whole transaction and redo the entire thing again! Here's the breakdown:

Galaxy S22+ 256GB $149.99
$1,049.99 Was Price
$250.00 Sale Discount
$250.00 T-MOB ACTVN 1
$400.00 SAMSG COUPON CPN BNDL 2

Subtotal $149.99
Sales Tax $9.00
===========
Total $158.99

Pay with $200 BB from the TIV
Balance gc left is ~$41
The second transaction I didn't mention about the upgrade so I guess I lost that add'l disc. But after clarifying I want to upgrade a line. I think that is where BB rep go into your phone account and upgrade whatever line you chose. From there the bundle T-MO $250 disc kick in along with all the saving.
If you would have traded in s21 for this same transaction then your gift card becomes $400 instead of $200 ?

Anyone know how registration works for Samsung's website? I tried to register my s22+ and it says it already has been registered when I entered the IMEI. I don't see it showing registered under my Samsung cloud account. The phone was factory sealed.
