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."

Quote from dh747 :
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?
Edit: I didn't see that you were asking about 'pre-order in the store', what I mentioned below is applies to 'pre-order on line'

You'll hand in your trade in at the time of pickup.

Bestbuy will inspect the trade in, if every thing is as you stated (model, condition etc..), they'll approve the trade in and issue refund at the time of pickup.

You can check the order status online and it should show adjusted total price (after refund).

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

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.
Yes that's right

Sure but I already have service so I don't care about that. If you don't have a plan, go ahead and wait for something like that.
i already had service too from another company where i was paying $25 per month. so i ported my number to mint for the 12 free months and saved the $300 that i would have paid for service, making the phone free basically.

Why am I only seeing $80 trade from iPhone se 3? What am I doing wrong? This is for Google Store. I see low value for all trade in, so something is not right on my end. Anyone else see similar issue?

So im reading that you can trade in carrier locked devices which has not been my experience though that was a few years ago, when I did the iPhone 13 series Best Buy deals the trade in had to be unlocked and not being financed, has this changed or just depends on the store?

Perhaps you selected the wrong option on the trade in condition screen? Shows as 460 for me.

Horrible deal compared to last November's deal: Pixel 7 $500, minus trade-in of iPhone 11 $499, plus $45 NY sales tax.
Pixel 8 $700 with free Pixel Buds pro 2 ($200), minus trade in of iPhone 11 $499.

So, you are paying $200 more but getting Pixel Buds pro 2 ($200 value) free.

In my book, this is a better deal when you consider Pixel 8 is much better then Pixel 7 (mainly better screen 120hz refresh and brighter and few other improvements - Tensor 3, better camera etc.)

In November and December 2022, I was able to trade-in an iPhone SE3(?) from Visible for a Google Pixel 7 (unlocked,128 GB) for an additional payment of $149.00. Well, iPhone SE3 was recently released at that time.
