Don't need the phone but pulled the trigger anyway. Did the same to get a Pixel 7 on preorder several years ago from BB for~ $70 with iPhone XR trade in.
Got 3 iPhone 12s from Metro 4 months back and will trade one in for this. This TIV is too crazy to pass up.

I got an email saying the order is canceled due to exceeding their orderable quantity. I tried twice. Has anyone had this issue too?
How many did you order?

For iPhone 12 refurbished acceptable condition - can someone suggest a good Amazon reseller who I can trust?

That is with a number ported in. I'm about to pull the trigger, but I've never dealt with Metro. What if you make up fake info for the port number, account, and pin when placing the order? Using a virtual credit card to the exact amount in my case it's $182 with tax. I also found a visible deal in my Citi merchant offers so I could get a line using my esim and just port a real legit number to Metro. I've never ported out from visible do they make it difficult?

Is there a limit on the number of trade-in deals you can do? I understand it's best to do separate purchase/trade-in per phone.

Let me know how this works out. It would be about $90 cheaper than what I bought on amazon.

I tried to place an order on Metro's site using my google voice number and the price went up to $600 at checkout.

Edit: My mistake was not selecting a Flex plan. I do notice this "Note: Your number won't be transferred over until after your new device is activated."

So I wonder what happens if you never activate.

I talked to Best Buy CS they said they don't care if the model number or color are the same, you can enter unlocked white phone and bring t mobile black phone. As long as it is iphone 12 and in good condition they accept, this is what the customer rep said.

I got a number from voip.ms for $1.25 and it worked for transfer. No need to make fake numbers.

You need to select the most expensive phone plan for $99 price.

You can get very cheap phone numbers from many places. But Visible is very easy to deal. As far as I remember you don't even need to chat. Everything is in your account page.

Thanks voip.ms for $1.25 sounds good. The visible deal on my Citi card is $25 back for a $20 purchase but for $1.25 voip.ms is probably easier.

I just love that best buy is buying all these iPhones just to cycle them back through the same disposal services we are buying them from.
