Best Buy's page if you want to activate an unlocked device as part of the order says "We're currently only able to activate service on this unlocked device with Verizon, Google Fi Wireless and AT&T."

But that doesn't mean the phone isn't compatible with T-Mobile, it probably means they don't stock T-Mobile SIMs and service. Do you have a source that says this unlocked phone from Best Buy will not take a T-Mobile SIM?

Also, trade-in note at checkout if you're selecting store pickup is "Bring your trade-in device to the store when you pick up your new item."

So did you go to the store and trade them in already? Or did the store just setup your pre order only for now?

I highly doubt you'll be able to trade in two phones (with elevated values) on a single Pixel 8 purchase.

I ended up chatting and they said you can trade in up to 3 devices . I couldn't get clear answer if each device would get that 300$ promo which I highly doubt no way they would give you 2-3 promos per 1 device. If anyone tries report here I have couple different older iPhones I would trade for pixel 8 pro.

So I know best buy will allow 2 phones to be traded in, its just if the elevated prices show on the in store system or not. All the people saying it works aren't answering my questions.

So did you go to the store and trade them in already? Or did the store just setup your Pre order only for now and it shows both phones with the elevated prices?!!

So you got $300 credit for Pixel 6a and $670 for iPhone 13 (assuming good condition and intact screens).? That's what the BB site is showing for these devices.

Terms say the trade in/ins(in this case) cant exceed the purchase price So after 2 iPhone se trades it would be about $80 left to pay plus tax on $80 so no reason to trade a 3rd phone in.

I call b.s. on the newbie that says he received elevated prices for 2 device trade in. If past transaction procedure at BB is the same, the process is they will enter trade in info then a "coupon" print out of the bonus TIV will be scanned and applied to the purchase. No way, two "bonus" print outs can be associated to one device purchase. My two cents unless poster prove me wrong by posting his receipt.

Because these kind of thing really depended on the customer rep. some will do it some won't and some will able to get you elevated value. It is YMMV
I will bring along a second phone and ask NICELY
if I wont't get elevated value then I won't trade in the second device.
Is that a big deal to bring another phone in Bestbuy?
Not for me

If I pre-order in the store for pickup today, do I need to hand in my trade-in today? Or does that happen at the time of the pickup?

And, once I hand in the trade-in, they will ship the device to a third party and I have to wait for them to approve the refund?

I think I'm with you, except there could be that one blue shirt who allows it. Sounds very YMMV.

Horrible deal compared to last November's deal: Pixel 7 $500, minus trade-in of iPhone 11 $499, plus $45 NY sales tax.
