Excellent price for a new premium tablet. Water proof, better than all tablets except S9 series. Lowest price I've seen and doubt it get any lower , especially no trade in required.
Also available -
Tab S9 FE, 256gb: $315
Tab S9 FE + 128gb: $375
Must open in chrome browser, don't use the app, and probably better not to sign in to any existing Samsung account.

I think my Tab S7+ is still much better tablet then S9FE
Display is 120Hz,its lighter much better for a gaming and battery is better.
FE is always cheap quality stuff.
I have a FE. It's not for gaming but it feels and behaves like a premium tablet. The 7 may be close to, or at EOL, whereas the FE will still get years of updates.
I have a lincplus t3 (bought it a few days ago, and it is quite snappy, no bloat, not sure if it will receive updates and you have to use a universal case for it.
I bought it for $90 (including tax)
Thanks. How did you get it for 90? I'm seeing 109 on Amazon and it's basically not sold anywhere else. I'm going to pick up one and decide if I should just get a cheapo as a stopgap and return the FE. If they're marginally different, not sure it's worth it for the FE. But if the linc is more like an a9 then I'll just shell out for the FE. Any chance you know whether the T3 is more like an a9, or a s9 FE?

Nope, the code the chat rep gives will then take away the discount that you already get, making it the same price with or without the code.
The Samsung support guy who set it up for me yesterday actually created the entire cart checkout for me and it worked perfectly. I didn't get a "code", he just sent me a link and then I punched in my CC details and it was ordered

The base price fluctuates and there's sometimes a % off or $ off coupon.
Biggest con so far, to me, is the lack of cases for this thing. Hopefully it's popularity will take off enough to encourage more cases being offered, as well as custom roms to support it if Lincplus won't.
Also, this trounces the A9. The A9 is trash from all the reviews I've seen from the more picky tablet users.
The keyboard case, which is offered at 50% off if you order with the S9 fe. It may or may not be available for home delivery; my order was redirected to Bestbuy pickup for that. It's $200 msrp, and $100 at amazon now, so I'd say $66 ($70 w/o Edu discount) is a decent sale, though Samsung has given it away to flagship S9 buyers before as freebie.

I found it's cheaper on Amazon business. It was $102 after tax. just arrived and powered it up 5 minutes ago. I assume some generic 10 inch cases would work? I got one for my tab s6 I'll try.
You need a promo code to get the discounted price. The chat can provide the code, or when a window pops up, it asks if you want a discount as a Samsung owner. However, if you are EPP, you can't use the code, and you can't trade in either. No double-dipping or triple-dipping.
The specs on the Best Buy website says S9 FE screen is LED/AMOLED whereas Samsung site says it is a TFT/LCD. I am gonna go with the official Samsung website and assume BB has it incorrectly mentioned. My S6 has AMOLED screen so its kinda a downgrade if I go from S6 to S9 FE.
It's not OLED

Yep, its definitely not OLED although I wish it was. Not going through OP's link but visiting directly Samsung I can get the S9 FE for $69.99 before tax with my S6 trade-in with my EPP account. I have a $25 off coupon so price before that was $95. Great deal especially if I include the additional CB savings but got so used to the nice S6 AMOLED screen so going back to TFT/LCD may not be that exciting. Not sure. Still debating.

For anyone trying to replicate this and getting a similar checkout error, the following worked for me:
