TRADE-IN OVERVIEW
SAMSUNG TRADE-IN PROGRAM TERMS/CONDITIONS [samsung.com]
SAMSUNG TRADE-IN FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS [samsung.com]
Overview:
If Samsung is processing trade-ins like prior deals, you will receive instructions by email--along with a prepaid shipping label--around the time your new phone arrives. You can also print the label from your online Samsung account.
You will send in the phone only (no boxes, chargers, SIMs, cases, etc.). Phone must be factory reset and have no passwords or locks. Good practice: Make a VIDEO and take photos of the phone, including showing some functions, to prove the condition if Samsung challenges you after inspecting the phone.
Common questions...
My phone has scratches [or burn in or faulty Bluetooth or fill in the blank]. Will Samsung accept the phone? Will the trade in amount be reduced? According to the FAQ, "Your device must have no breaks, cracks, or other defects that go beyond normal wear and tear." Is your issue normal wear and tear?
When/how will I get instructions for trading in my phone? Samsung will send you an email with the subject "Welcome to the Samsung Trade-In Program." The email will arrive anywhere from the day the phone ships to a few days after the phone arrives. It includes a link to download a pre-paid shipping label. You have 15 days from receipt of the email to ship the trade in. You can also get the shipping label for the trade in from your online Samsung account under order details.
Two commonly asked questions about financed and leased phones:
1. The device I'm trading in is one that I bought using an equal payment or other financing plan, and I still have payments left on it. Can I still trade it in?
Yes – however, please note that all remaining payments on the device you're trading in are your responsibility. You may also be subject to additional fees. Check with your current carrier for details.
2. I lease my device. Can I trade it in?
No – leased devices are not eligible for this Trade-In Promotion unless you purchase the leased device from your carrier before trading it in. Check with your carrier for details.
SALES TAX
Samsung charges sales tax based on your State's requirements. Some States charge sales tax on the pre trade-in price, other States after the trade-in is applied. This is not Samsung playing games.

Via Costco's AT&T website, Costco provides $50 in bill credits plus $100 SHOP card.
At this very second, Perkspot + S24U trade-in + S25U 512GB is $379.99. If the $50 reservation credit comes in and Samsung math is utilized, hopefully, it goes to $329.99. But we should never forget that Samsung discount stacking math is 5-4=2.

I like my S24 Ultra and overall it's entire feature set but Samsung needs to step up with hardware features.
More ram, faster charging, battery size, upgraded cameras, etc, are falling behind competitors.
Same 12gb ram as S24 Ultra and now S25 base and Plus.
Spen downgraded.. now just a basic stylus and no bt support.
I was expecting less TIV TBH but no rush getting rid of my S24U whatsoever, unless battery life is VASTLY improved or they offer interesting cracked screen TIV

Standard cost for that plan is $269, its currently on a 15% discount which lowers it down to $228.
The $130 credit lowers that down to $98.
