09/13 - Trade in processing has slowed down, a trade in that was delivered to Chino,
CA on 09/06 wasn't processed until 09/13, representing ~5 business days from delivery to assessment. Kentucky was processing trades faster, with a ~1 business day turnaround reported on 09/12 when the delivery was made on 09/11.
09/05 - Best Buy no longer issues "trade in kits" (boxes with prepaid labels). Once your Pixel 9 Pro is delivered and the Best Buy order status shows delivered (their system lags behind UPS), you'll get an email with the next steps. You need to go into the Order Details page on BB.com, sign in and then you can print a pre-paid UPS label for the trade-in. Save a copy of the tracking number for your records and make sure it gets scanned in to the UPS system when you drop it off.
Trade ins will likely be delivered in bulk, but UPS should still show a delivered scan. IT WILL TAKE TIME FOR THE TRADE INS TO BE PROCESSED, DO NOT FREAK OUT IF IT DOESN'T HAPPEN INSTANTLY. As of 09/04, they were processing trades that were delivered on 08/29 - so at least 4 business days. It WILL take time with the volume of P9P orders and trade ins.
If BB baited you into their "store" with advertised "enhanced" trade in values and then decided to reneg days later, at least, file a FTC complaint

Pixel 9's not currently working with TracFone
The trade-in value will show as the BASE VALUE, but that does not include the promotion value. You will still get the promotion value assuming you were going to get it per your order receipt, so do not worry.

edit. Sorry I thought I re-read the prompt but for the XL you need to go to iphone 13 pro
-100 bb gift card i mainly use for mint mobile and other carriers.
-if you count the service from metro then you are paying about
60 dollars for this upgrade
i bought a mint mobile sim card from best buy unlimited to be used after I finish with metro pcs unless i go with their BYOD plan of 25 dollars I would never stay with a 70 dollar plan as I can do unlimited at 15-20 dollars every day of the week thus there is no need.
the best bang per buck seems to be pixel 9 pro only if you can find a cheap iphone 12 pro
hard to get a hold of unless you over pay.
if you can do 256 obviously worth it
iphone 12 pro cost about 300-330 right now.
-200 gift card.
you are paying 100-130 for this upgrade.
as for pixel 9 pro xl isn't much of a deal. unless you need to show off the big screen.
please note I would never ever pay msrp for these phones if it was 50% off maybe I could consider it.
I am only doing this because of the decent deal.
The phones should include this
"Unlock Gemini Advanced for a year at no cost to you
Get access to even more powerful AI features with the Google One AI Premium plan. A total value of $239 at no cost to you.³"
On my order details page there is an "Store Pickup Instead" button that is currently grayed out. Maybe if I'm lucky it will become available later, but I'm assuming the stores aren't stocking the Pro model.
