Does anyone think this phone will go on sale for Black Friday? If so, where? Online? At AT&T stores? How much might it be discounted? With new contracts, upgrades, or no contracts? Let's get some crystal balls going
I doubt it. The discounts might probably only be on the accessories though. They released the phone too close to Black Friday...probably to avoid Black Friday deals on the Fuze.
I'm not sure one way or the other, but I'm holding off buying the Fuze until I see if there are any Black Friday deals. Let's face it, people aren't spending money these days, Circuit City is about to close it's doors; companies are doing whatever they can to get people to spend some money.
Dunno, but let's hope.
I don't know either, but I will be getting the difference if deals surface!
I picked up a Fuze at the AT&T Corp. store in Hickory, NC on Thursday. In the bag they put the Fuze box in was a flyer about their Black Friday Sale.
Special Hours & Special Offers - 7am to 10pm - Come before 10am for "Door Buster" Specials.
No more specifics but I'll be checking that morning to see if the Fuze is any less than what I paid.

Letstalk.com has a deal going on right now for the FUZE. Free after $99 rebate with new 2 yr contract or $249 with 2 yr contract for upgrade.... That's the best deal available right now for the fuze considering AT&T offers it for 199 after 50 rebate.

Amazon has it for $150 so that's the best deal out there
My guys at the Millsboro Delaware, US told me the Blackberry Bold was on for B-Friday.
Costco manager here again to save you loot.
We have coupon in store deal on the G2x for new or upgrade customers. Now just $99 with free car kit and travel holster.
Plus if you are like me and bought it at $149,99 at Costco within 90 days you are given any lower price in cash back. So go to Memership counter with or without reciet and they will give you your $50.00 in cash back with no issue!
Ice.
that sounds awesome. Will give it a try
Where do I pick up the coupon and how long is the deal going to last?
If I was to buy at Costco, would I be able to easily swap it out if I had bad screen bleed? Because I know they have (or at least had) a good return policy. Is it 90 days for phones? Any stipulations?

Yes, you can switch out for any reason in that 90 days! No quetions asked. In fact the policy is that you take out your sim card and pack up phone. They just verify its all there and refund in cash. They give you choice of same or different phone. YOu only have 14 days though to cancel contract all together. The 90 days if for the phone.

two way, a coupon book is mailed to all Costco Customers. Or simply grab one at membership. There are always tons of them.
Its the sale. I think this one is 2 weeks starting yesterday.

I checked my most recent coupon book and this is the one I found. A single coupon for the following: up $250 off the G2x, up to $150 off the Droid 2 Global and up to $30 off the Infuse 4G. Is this the coupon you're referring to?
I bought mine online last week. Can I still get $50 back?
This is only for the people who bought it there correct?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
The price shows 79.99 if you bought it online from Wireless Advocates through Costco's website
http://membershipwireless.com/index...nternal/utm_medium/feature/utm_campaign/haven
I'm going there today to get my price adjustment. I bought it for 149.99 on 4/20. Hopefully its 79.99 at the Wireless Advocates kiosk inside Costco. If it's $99.99 there, thats still good and I wont complain about $50 off.
I just spoke with Wireless Advocates representative on the phone, and she basically told me that I can't get the $50 off if I go to the Kiosk inside Costco. I'm mad since this phone is less than a week old.
I bought one for $80..nice deal for sure. I had returned my original to t-mobile.
Is it also $99 for people eligible for a 2-year upgrade?
Just came back from Costco. Its 79.99 at the Costco cellphone kiosk if you are getting a new contract. Upgrades or renewals are 99.99. I just got my $50 credit adjustment back to my American Express.
Don't go directly to the customer service/refund section of Costco. They need an item number code from the kiosk. Go to the kiosk directly and get it there. Again if you signed up at Costco on a new contract your new price will be $79.99. If it was an upgrade then its 99.99.
Sale prices end 5/17!!!
No coupon is needed for these sale prices. Always bring your receipt always because it will be faster for you.
m918v did you buy it online or from the kiosk inside the Costco?
to clarify
so - you are saying that with a costco membership, we can get the phone with out a contract for $300?
How much is a membership to costco?

Oh yeah if you just bought the phone there without a contract the price went from 399 to 300 (call the kiosk to verify). No coupon is needed for these sale prices. Always bring your receipt always because it will be faster for you.

Uh, wasn't it already proven in the other Costco thread that you have to jump through some MAJOR hoops to get phones off-contract from Costco?
Has anyone here walked out of Costco with a $300 phone without signing up or extending a contract?
Yeah scrap that, Costco wont sell you a contract free phone. I just called and they said they wont do that at any Costco location. I thought the price was $300 because that was the new price the Costco employee rang up before the discounts for a new price of $99.
Sorry for the confusion.
Hey guys my 2-year contract is up and I'm looking to renew it with T-Mobile. Are there any stores that offer a better promotion than others? For example, maybe at Best Buy they will give you a free case or something (I just made that up). I usually renew my contracts at official T-Mobile stores but I'm wondering if stores like Best Buy, Radioshack or any other electronic store that is affiliated with T-Mobile might give better deals.
I am a TMobile customer. The answer is, not really. Occasionally, but not often. Most of the big deals they were doing were during the holiday season.
Be sure to read tmonews.com. They have a nice rss feed and they list deals when they happen. Very good news.
Note that since your 2 year lease is up, you should consider a non-subsidized phone in the future due to the cost savings. Also, make sure you have a plan where you are not paying the hardware subsidy fee.
You may be able to change your plan now to something slightly cheaper. Even if it is only $5 cheaper, that is $60 per year.

Wait I don't understand what you mean about hardware subsidy fee. I am in a family plan right now and I am planning to get four new discounted phones from the start of a new 2 year contract. Does T-Mobile add additional cost so I have to pay off the four phones in the length of 2 years?
Also, what if I purchase a discounted device for $200 and resell online for $400+?

Hi all
I'm from Ireland and I'm going to be in the US in september and I'm hoping to buy a note 10.1 as it's much cheaper there than it is in Ireland (in the order of $150 cheaper).
What is the best brick and mortar store?
Best buy seems to be the only place I can find that (on the net atleast) would have in stock, also is there anything I'm not thinking about? taxes or the charges which may affect me I'm going to california by the way.
Office Max is a good brick n mortar store, that sells the G-Note 10.1 All you have to pay extra is California's state sales tax.

I bought mine from newegg.com for $499 with free shipping (ups 3days) and without tax
while I was in a hotel in Texas for a business trip.
But I think you'll end up paying tax in California if you order from newegg.
Goto www.nowinstock.net and check out other online stores as well.
Good luck.
Thanks for the advice guys. I'm now thinking to avoid sales tax(and wasting my time finding stores) to buy the note 10.1 and Tab2 7.0(for my gf) on Amazon and have it shipped to my gf dad who lives in cali

I may be mistaking something, but how are you avoiding tax by purchasing online? Does it depend on the state you ship it to? I live in Canada, so I'm not used to this tax exemption concept.
well my understanding(recent research from google) is that most states have sales tax which is charged on top of the price of good at point of sale. I'm not exactly sure how online retailers avoid having to pay sales tax but I believe it has to do with selling good from outside the state where the customer is.
In the US, you usually don't pay sales tax online UNLESS the store has a physical presence in your state. That has it's exceptions though, like Amazon, here in CA you currently don't pay tax to sales fulfilled directly by them (sales fulfilled by 3rd parties on Amazon still carry tax IF they are in your state) because they have no physical presence in CA, however, through a deal made last year between CA and Amazon, we will have to start paying sales tax on ALL Amazon purchases, regardless of whether it's coming directly from them or from a 3rd party. If you want sales tax free online stuff in CA after September, you'll have to go with somebody like B&H, JR or Adorama, who are all located in New York City.
Hi,
Can people post the best places as far as bonus deals or discounts, where to order the GS6 from?
I'm upgrade eligible on my Verizon More everything plan (I want to lock into a new 2 year contract) is there any site that will offer the phone for less than $199? (or rather less than $299 for the 64gb model?) or at least bundle with it some free accessories?
(a few years ago I bought my GS3 from Amazon wireless for $50 less than VZW.com, but haven't come across any sites offering discounts for the GS6 yet)

Try Costco. They might have some special offers/deals/discounts. (Usually, they do)

Um, maybe Sam's Club?
Go directly through Verizon. They have a $100 trade in credit when you are buying the gs6 when you trade in any good working condition smartphone. $150 for the gs4, & $200 for the GS5. They also have a promo on the Galaxy tab S, and some gear watch, don't recall which one.
Best Buy is giving away a Samsung Qi wireless charger with the phone right now. Plus they have the same trade-in offer as Verizon, but it's in the form of a Best Buy gift card.
I ordered from Costco and they had a $30 gift card but it ended yesterday. That almost covers upgrade charge. I can wait until next week to get the phone.
Here's the amazing deal I just got from Verizon. Try to follow along. Verizon has this "edge" program, where you sign a 2 year contract and can pay for the phone monthly over two years. The gs6 is $600 so it'd be 25 bucks a month. The kicker; they give you 25 bucks off your phone bill each month if you get the 6 gb plan (which is currently the same price for a 4gb plan). So I paid the tax on the phone and walked out of the store basically never paying for it again. On top of that, the rep told me to bring my w2 in and I'll get a 20% monthly discount for working in a hospital. Ask what other discounts they might have!
