IN-STORE PICKUP NOTE: If you pre-ordered a phone for in-store pickup, make sure that you check your online receipt before picking up your phone. If the full promo value shows up there, then your promo is locked in and that's the deal you will get. However, your promo trade bonus won't show up on your printed trade receipt. It may only mention your base trade value ($145 for an iphonen12, for example). If you're concerned, you should immediately check the BB online receipt for an updated summary that shows the new balance. As long as the "Order Total there is correct, you should be fine. Also, you may be charged for the full phone cost originally but that charge should be processed as a refund after a few days
Trade-in values are based not just on your trade, but also on what model you're buying. When trading an iPhone 12 / 13, you'll get the best trade value when buying a similar model of new Pixel. For example:
iPhone 12 / 13 Pro will get a $999 credit toward a Pixel 9 Pro (update: now $899 credit for 12 Pro)
iphone 13 Pro Max will get a
iPhone 12 Pro Max unfortunately does not receive extra bonus credit
Note: they now appear to be lowering the promotional values that were aimed at certain devices, so promotion values above are mostly dead. Se thead updates for any remaining promo specifics.

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

1) Login to your Best Buy account
2) (Optional) Open a new tab
3) C&P the following web address, replacing the x's with your order number
5) In the message from the API, search for "cancelReasonCode" or "cancelReasonDescription"
6) If you can't find it, either the order isn't cancelled or you mistyped it.
From milesperday.com [milesperday.com]:
I checked an old, unrelated order of mine that was cancelled by Best Buy, and got "Order cancelled due to Fraud Negative". It has been a year since the cancelled order, so my memory is a little weak, but I think I was on a VPN when I placed the order. So for those who Best Buy did not flag as a reseller or fraud, Best Buy does track your IP address so avoid using VPNs, public WIFIs, or heavily populated WIFIs when logging in.
BTW, that cancelled order did not permanently affect my account, I could still place other orders.

With that said, in the event that I do, should I:
1) swap in my existing iphone 12 (it runs fine but has 76% battery health and is 3+ years old)
2) buy a refurbished one off of ebay? and if so, does anyone have any recommendations on what to buy?
I think if I do keep the pixel, I'll ultimately give it to my son and I'll switch back to an iphone -- I'll either buy the new one or keep my iphone 12 and go with option 2.
Also if I do option 2, how can I make sure the iphone 12 is actually in tradeable condition? These ebay sellers don't seem to accept returns, so it seems if it's not in tradeable condition, I'd be stuck with it
