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.

Anyone know about the charge on credit card when ordering online for store pickup?
Is this a pending charge and will be only charged when the item is picked up? Or is this charged now and the trade in refund is applied during pick up time?

What if we decide, not to pick the item up - will best buy refund the credit card charge immediately?

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.
I only see shipping available for P9 Pro. How did you do pickup?

I'm now seeing the "Coming soon" / greyed out button for the Pro version. Not sure if that part is really dead now or if they might be releasing some more occasionally. Looks like the regular version is still allowing orders for now though.

Looks like metro iPhone 12 is back in stock +$75 plan, $181~ out of pocket cost.

Just placed a port in order and placed the P9 pre-order for pickup concurrently! Thanks OP

Oh I didn't order - I might skip this year. Apologies if I had misinformation but I've done this for the 6, 7 and 8 so I assumed it was the same on the 9. Someone else said the 9 is OOS right now so that may be the reason.

iphone 12 from metro is probably best bet, goes in and out of stock. steps:
1. Get a google voice number: https://voice.google.com/
2. Set pin and unlock phone number for port $3. https://support.google.com/voice/...NA#xferout
3. purchase the iphone 12 from metro, port in. sign up for $70 plan https://www.metrobyt-mobile.com/c...-iphone-12
4. purchase pixel 9, trade in select t-mobile black iphone 12, 64gb. good condition.

Profit. Out of pocket ~$230 +- and a free $100 giftcard.

For me, I will sell my pixel 9 for 300 after fees and shipping. walk away net positive.
