I don't have a Best Buy that is close by. If I am mailing in my iPhone SE (3rd) that i bought from Walmart as a trade-in, is there anything special I should do? Do I need to set the phone up before sending it in? THANKS!

Does Metro phone unlock after 6 or 12 mos of no payment?
I believe it is 6 months. Purchase a 6A under this thought.

Quote from bombay63 :
Last year for Pixel 7 they charged tax on amount after deducting Trade In Value. Online order shows that they will charge tax on MSRP 699 but they will adjust it after they approve your trade-in which makes sense since folks over estimate or lie on quality of trade-in.
Other way is that they will give you TIV plus taxes back which is the same.
Thanks for the details, I was going by what I paid online.

Quote from BJFISHY :
This deal is exactly the equivalent. Pixel 7 was $599 this year the 8 is $699 So You have to take that and consideration. Walmart SE $149 gives you $310 extra in credit plus you get Buds Pro where the mint mobile deal you did not get any extra stuff. $599-310 was $289 so this deal is the equivalent and you don't have to wait "months"
I'm trying to find this phone at this price through Walmart, but they're only available for "off brand" carriers and the Best Buy site specifically wants one of the big 4 with none of the others being selectable.

Just a reminder for anyone looking to do this deal who has the best buy credit card:

It is card member appreciation month. If you muuuust do the purchase now, the deal through Oct 8 is a $10 reward certificate after spending $100 at best buy. If you can just wait until October 9 to make the purchase, I can guarantee the next card member offer will be 10% rewards cash back up to $50 (it hasn't been announced and it won't be until the email we get on October 9, but historically this is the second deal of the appreciation month).

$999 8pro
-$460 trade
=======
$539+tax to be charged to the CC
You'll get your Pixel Watch and then $50 in rewards points (2500) down the road.

$699 8
-$460 trade
=======
$239+tax to be charged to the CC
You'll get your buds pro and then $24-$26 in rewards points (~1250) depending on tax in your area (the reward is based on dollars charged to the card, not subtotal before tax).

Is Px Pro 8 + watch for $700 a good deal? Great deal? Meh?

MSRP $999 - iPhone SE TIV $460 + Walmart iPhone SE $161 = $700.

If I choose the store pickup with store trade-in, will they assess the phone in-store and issue the credit right away?

Does it go through any more checks? Concerned about not getting the credit due to straight talk not being in the list

Did last year for the pixel 7. Bought a phone at Walmart. Drove down the road, opened the phone in the Best Buy parking lot, went inside and traded it in. "You keep your phones in really good shape"

What if the trade in values go down? I think the bonus trade in values are good through the 18th? Or was it the 12th? Idk. Doesn't seem worth it to save $4-6 (in your pixel 8 example with trade in, $15 in the pro example). If you have a less valuable trade, it's more of a deal for sure to get the extra 5% cash back
