I'm looking for a deal on this phone but at this price it's within spitting distance of the Ultra on Samsung.com w/EPP ($885). The one problem I have with the Ultra is the extra weight. It's only 14g more but it's noticeable and makes the phone more prone to damage if dropped. I'd like to see the S26+ under $700 before I'd bite. Strangely, deals on the Ultra are much more common.
BTW the S26+ is $745 on Samsung.com w/EPP and includes a $100 credit for accessories.

Are you sure there's a credit? I only see that for the Ultra.

I have the feeling that the Ultra has a higher profit margin for Samsung.
The last Ultra I bought was back in 2024 for my wife from Amazon. We ordered a S24+ but someone ticketed a S24+ Ultra with the wrong tag.
I have no idea if I just go lucky or someone intentionally mis-tagged a bunch of them to steal from Amazon and since my wife picked a weird color, she got one of them.
I am generally a good person but just couldn't send back the Ultra for the + and in my defense, I didn't figure out that there was an error until I had already opened it up and connected it to Verizon so they would have had to resell it as an open box... at least that is the story I am sticking too.

The other link provided in this thread shows $745, doesn't say new or used, but also doesnt give me an option to trade-in my old phone.
