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.

iPhone always have premium trade-in values. That's why their prices don't drop like Androids.
Keep some around to trade-in
I also think that there is an intense brand loyalty to Apple. But everyone has their price, and deals like this target Apple users who might be willing to switch over.

As others pointed out, an iPhone 12 can be bought on the open.market for $250-$300.

Same. I tried twice porting from Total and it got stuck on Metro's end and Total said it was already ported to Metro. I ended up calling Metro and they were able to release the port and complete the order over the phone with me.


Already shipped and iPhone 12 arriving tomorrow.

My line still working on Straight Talk but showing as inactive. Metro saying they didn't port it out yet.

And Metro price online jumping to $299, as if the number is t-mobile, which it isn't.

The Pixel 9? I have an S22 Ultra and my daily is an S24. I have a Pixel 7 and a Pixel 7 Pro. I think the S23 Ultra is better. Just me.

Quote from ConfusedCEO :
sorry if this was mentioned before. If I purchase it with store pickup option, can I drop off my old phone at the same store? or do I need to ship it out to their trade-in location?
Their info about trade-ins implies that trades for shipped devices are also shipped in. Last time, they had an option to select drop-off trades even for shipped phones, but I don't see it this year. However, you could try stopping by the store and see if they can process it that way. We probably won't know for sure until someone tries. Here's the info they give …

"How Trade-In Works:
1. Add a new device to your cart.
2. Find your trade-in device using our value estimator tool, and we'll help you get the maximum value for its condition.
3. Choose whether to pick up your new item in the store or have it shipped. Whichever method you choose, we'll walk you through the steps to get your trade-in device to us.
4. If you choose store pickup, you'll bring your trade-in device to the store when your new device is ready for pickup. If you choose shipping, we'll email instructions for shipping your trade-in device to us after your new device is delivered.
5. When we receive your trade-in device, we'll confirm its condition and securely remove your data.
6. After your trade-in is complete, we'll refund your payment method in the amount of your trade-in value, including any associated tax, within 7-10 days of receiving your device."

Yup. My line with Total is still active as well. Typing from it right now lol. I know it sucks calling them but if you want the deal and are stuck it's the only way to get out of it.

I chose to trade in an unlocked iPhone 12 by mistake. What I am going to trade in is a locked iPhone 12, but the color is correct. Does that really matter?Thanks

Question for those buying the metro phones for $99– How do you trade it into best buy for this deal if Best Buy doesn't show metro as one of the trade in options and the phone doesn't come immediately unlocked?
