If you're looking to buy a P9, definitely do so at Best Buy over Google store:

1. BB GC has more flexibility vs. Google Store credit
2. BB will deduct taxes off your trade = more saving
3. Trade instore = no headache vs. send in trade to Google's 3rd party
4. Easy return/replacement should there be some defects. Google CS is horrid.

Check the trade in values against the Google Store. Best Buy has a better trade in for the 6a but Google a better one for the 8.

Though a $100 Best Buy gift card is better for most people than a $100 Google Store credit, so that's a factor too.

Pretty much all the old pixel users are getting screwed for trade-in value.

I recommend anyone with a Pixel 8 to wait. Last year they included a trade in promotion for a total of $450, which made it only $250 to upgrade, while also including the pixel buds pro.

Any significant risk to buying a renewed iphone 12 on Amazon and trading that in? That's a better deal than what I get for my pixel 6a.

They always try to attract the iPhone users to switch to Google devices and screw their own phone users!

Zero risk. Take it to the store and trade it in. If they reject for any reason just cancel the BB order and return to Amazon.

Yes, acquisition cost is always greater than retention cost.

Except pixel phones aren't worth that much. I guess those legit iphone users will find out soon.

Link shown appear to be a normal Pixel 9 device, no the Pro. You went from a Pro to a normal Pixel 9 device, is that a good trade? My Pixel 8 only gave $450 trade in value.

It would be trading the 8 Pro for a 9 Pro. I don't know if I would do it though.

I traded in an IPhone Xr during the pixel 7 deal. Had no issues. In and out in maybe 15 minutes.

I always do store pickup and trade in at store and haven't had any issues. It may annoy the employee, but they always let me do my transfer from one device to the other and make sure two factor is swapped to the new device in store as well before they take the trade in and close it all.
