Oh, and appliances, too, but they're not worth mentioning since they're so unreliable.

They would not even ship a stick vac to Seattle, claiming it was a major appliance.

I have done about 3 Samsung trade in since 2018.... Every time I hate it. I got rejected twice and had to speak with CSR to get it sorted... I vow to never do these ridiculous trade-in again. Sorry for being the negative voice in this deal
Done 2. One got rejected, phone got broken in transit. Even though I had pics/proof, still rejected.

Quote from tinsterhk :
If I trade in my S22U for S23U, it still going to cost me $472 w/ tax. That's not a good deal. Deduct $750 from MSRP is not a deal. Will wait for an $200 upgrade. Samsung has offered it before. Also, I upgrade my Samsung tablet every year for around $100 to 180 (w/ trade in). Just need to wait.
Yes, not a deal whatsoever. The people who are slavering at the mouth have no perception of an actual deal...SD is going down the toilet.
Quote from Dferg12 :
Thats fair. Id do that with mine too, for 200 out of pocket. Unfortunately when I checked, trade in would knock off 750...and Id be left paying 600 something.

Not worth it for me, as the s22 ultra battery, camera, and performance remain excellent by 2023 standards.
There will be better promos... Always are. The S23U is a minor upgrade. Battery life is fine on my U1 S22U, so the carrier ones might be riddled with bad software.

Where do you want to sell your s22 ultra?
Will try locally first FB and Nextdoor. I don't have a preference. Sometimes I sell on eBay but its fees get out of hand lately. Swappa is nice also had good luck with them.

These deals are hot garbage. I was so excited for this:

88% off Galaxy S23 & S23+ – Save up to $700 with enhanced trade-in (promo price: $99)

Trading my S21 in and it will cost me $650!!!! Ridiculous.

I was also hoping to trade in a S21 for a S23. Lame ass deals.

Yes, these deals are a joke. Only Samsung shills will say that's a good price for barely better hardware

Did they just make up fake prices in the promo? Seems that way

Both the A54 and S23 deals are unable to replicate on Wednesday

Don't shoot the piano player. I just posted what the tech press was (mis)reporting / hyping. Because somebody else would have, anyway.
