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.

when trading in for the Pixel 9 Pro?
Does it matter if we trade in a Unlocked iPhone 12 Pro 5G 128GB - Graphite?
on my order reciept it says:
Your trade in:
Apple - iPhone 12 Pro 5G 128GB - Graphite (Verizon)
Model: MGLN3LL/A
Quantity: 1
SKU: 6009920
I believe MGLN3LL/A is the modem number for any iPhone 12 Pro 128 GB. So do we have to trade in the Verizon version? I can only order this for shipping so I need to mail in the trade in. Bit confused here.
If you don't select color (optional), then there will be more choices to pick (though none says unlocked).
My dilemma is my model number doesn't match MGLN3LL/A.
I mean, did anyone get ahold of CS agent that was able to double check?
Because when I look at this :
- I see a suspiciously low price which doesn't make sense (as the newer Iphones aren't as highly valued).
-Some websites tell you the bonus is 760 USD (which doesn't match the 769 USD needed for this phone).
-The CS agent tells me it's a price mistake (though he did not seem reliable).
-No one seemed to confirm nor call or talk with bestbuy employees to confirm the price when it seems to be the obvious action before going through the hassle.
-The trade-in value has been inconsistent when you read the slickdeal comments which really makes you wonder (and there really shouldn't be any reason for price to be changing and having to do "tricks").
-There has been other glitches such as not having the other providers available (only verizon show up now by default).
All that combined really makes me wonder.
A simple confirmation from Bestbuy or Google would be great.
(I also highly doubt it would make a difference at this scale asking CS, for smaller deals that don't require a trade in I obviously wouldn't ask CS as there is a much higher chance for them to cancel).
Im only willing to do this if I can do the trade in at the Best Buy store, but I just keep seeing only the option to have it shipped.

Same, 12 pro max sitting around waiting for a good trade in deal...
Now I'm just refreshing metro hoping the 12 will come back in stock
Gonna be worried up until the day the phone trade's in and once you get the credit of the traded-in phone.
(best to wait opening the Pixel as well because there's a restocking fee if you open it).
Worse case scenario, you get Bestbuy credit for the trade-in, and lose money for buying the iphone 12.
