NOTE 2 $135 @ eBAY BestBuy Mobile Solutions

$179.99 + 25% off promo code HOLIDAY25 = $134.99 with 2 year agreement. https://ebay.bbymsolutions.com/deta...-ii-4g-mobile-phone-marble-white-sprint-/2519 -- got mine today with a store pick-up !!!

I guess this is only for new customers... upgrades price is $349!!! Wouldn't it be cheaper for me to get it in the store!?!?!
Great price for a new customer though!!! Just wish it was the same price for upgrades too!

For new customers. Where's the love for existing lol?

yea that sure does suck... using the 25% promo code drops it to $262.50. I had recently upgraded both my lines for the GS3 and the EVO LTE... added a third line to get the NOTE 2 at the awesome price. Looks like the HOLIDAY25 promo code is good through the 18th.

I was wondering if I could add a line and get the note 2 and transfer a number from my existing family plan over to the note 2. Would that cancel that line out and just get replaced with the note. Just curious cause I got a phone that I'm kind of tired of.

that's what i did ... i had the GS3, got the NOTE 2, did an ESN swap where my number is now on the NOTE 2 and the new number is on the other. It does not cancel it out. Still gots to pay for that line per month. 19.99 per month for the third line, 10.00 if its a smart phone, and any insurance you might decide to go with.

Insane price especially add a line....

Yep! I bought mines almost two weeks ago from the local Best Buy store and got the Note II price matched to Amazon Wirelsss at $240 and the SIII for my wife at $50.
Last week I saw that Amazon dropped the new customer price online to $149.99 so I went to the store to get my price match guarantee.
Now yesterday I saw that the SIII is now $0.01 for new customers and the Note II is $99.99. I went back to the store and got price matched again before my grace period ran out this Wed.
In the end, I got the Note II for $99.99 and my wife's SIII for $0.01, I am one happy camper!

I went to best buy and got sprint, they did priced match with amazon..so i only paid 150 for gn2 with new plan.

If you got it recently, I would suggest you go back with a print out from the Amazon wireless webpage so you can get 50 bucks back with their price guarantee policy (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Payment...ee/pcmcat204400050011.c?id=pcmcat204400050011). It's the holidays so im guessing we can all use as much extra cash as possible.

Cheapest place to buy a GNOTE2

What is the cheapest anyone has gotten the Note2 for and , where could i find it for the cheapest price?
mods* if this doesnt belong here please just move it, or if its already been asked please link me to that thread

For me, Craigslist or Ebay.. But Craigslist is really really.. It's 50/50. I would rather pay more and just buy at a retail store or someyhing. So many people getting their phone's IMEI blocked after buying from CL and stuff. Try Swappa

+1 for swappa. I bought a TMobile 7.0+ and an i717 off there with no issues. I'm looking for a white collar collar job this fall when I finish working beach volleyball and I'll probably be buying a Note 2 off there.

I've bought a couple on local craigslist for $400 in like new condition. They do pop up from time to time. It seems the going rate in the Ventura area is $475. I stumbled across a Verizon one for $350. It had chewed up chrome bezel and battery door. I spent $25 on replacing them and got $500 for it. So don't be afraid of body damage as long as the glass is in good shape.

been looking and have found some a lil bit lower.. im actually looking at two right now
1st) is a Sprint Gnote2 already flashed to pageplus ( which is what i would do with it if i get it anyways) for $220
2nd) is Tmobile Gnote 2 clean imei for $300
cant decide
one hand one is cheaper and pageplus works off verizon towers which would give me good reception wherever i am but fastest data speed is 2mb down .. pageplus plan for $70 with 5gb data is the plan i would get on this...
the tmobile is more expensive , i would get the $70 plan have unlimited data but some complain about call quality and coverage and i use phone for work so not sure... tmobile data would obviously be alot faster and you could talk and surf and the same time which is not a requirement but a plus..
still trying to decide ...aaarrggghhh

Check Amazon every once in a while for deals through personal sellers. For ex. I got a brand new unopened and unlocked iPhone 5 for $480 shipped about 3 months after release just because of how cheap it was.. Used it for 3weeks or so and turned around and still sold it for 788 on ebay

That doesnt make sense to me. Why would people pay more than the retail price for a used phone? People on ebay are crazy

I do agree that some people do crazy things on ebay especially.
I have seen crazy seller too. As in listing for used s3 starting at
899.00
But to each is his own.
I got my note2 on ebay for 435.00 includ shipping.
But I had to hunt for it almost 6 month.

I got my note 2 for tmobile from wirefly. com for 300 but had to sign a new contract

Anything on Craigslist/ Ebay/ Amazon for really cheap- Less than $400 or so, I would consider suspicious. Especially the ones that look really new. Some people claim on insurance and the one they are selling you is the one they probably got off of insurance by ripping someone else off. Ebay is a little better because they have buyer protection- but still, it's only 30 days and the original owner can report lost/stolen, claim insurance after 30 day period.
Bought a Note 2 for $500 brand new and a week later, got it blocked.
I have heard that if you meet with the seller at a Tmobile store, they'll be able to switch over the IMEI- but make sure it's not on a payment plan or you'll be screwed even if you switch over the IMEI..

$275 for my Note II from Tmobile

I was just at a Tmobile store and they offered me $275 to trade in my Note II. Is this new $275 is pretty close to what l would sell it for on CL. Just thought I'd Pass this into along to anyone who might be interested.

I just picked up a really clean rooted one off swappa for 325. That doesn't sound THAT far off, unfortunately...

Yep, I specifically asked if there were any restrictions or stipulations. There were none, I didn't even need to buy a phone.

sold one on ebay a week ago for little over $400, after fees+ ship I net around $350
$275 isn't bad if you don't want to go through the trouble

Listed mine on craiglist 2 days ago for $425. No one interested, then i lowered down to 400$ , still got no calls or texts. Today, I lowered down to $375, finally got someone offered $325. I sold it to him. If this WAs an iphone 5, its probably been sold the 1st day.

[Q] ATT and Samsung promotion, Best buy trade-in ?

I have a question. I am thinking to buy the Note 4 in the following manner
1) Pre-order the Note 4 on ATT website by selecting ATT Next 12 and adding a new line (this makes me eligible for a $100 credit )
2) Trade-in my old iPhone 4S at Bestbuy (value shown is around $40)
3) The difference amount i.e (200-40=160$) will be paid by Samsung ?
In this way I am having a savings of $300. Am I missing something here ? Please help
Thank You

Needs to be traded to the retailer where you're preordering

Does it state that in the fine print? Anyways AT&T is giving me 0 value for my 4S whereas bestbuy is offering me atleast 40$. So i am really confused what to do. I can't order from Bestbuy as Store pickup is required.

"Store pickup is required"??? Where are you getting your information from? When I have attempted to pre-order from Best Buy, I am told the pre-orders can only be SHIPPED to my home. There is no store pickup option. I know this because I actually prefer store pickup for my circumstances, but Best Buy will not give the option if you pre-order online. Now, if you go into a store and do it... that's another issue.

Yes. Looks like you have the proper steps as outlined here https://samsunggalaxypromotions.com/Note4/
As long as Best Buy is an official trade in site...although I believe Sprint offers a little more in trade-in value. Which if it is the same Iphone 4S at AT&T listed here https://secure.sprintbuyback.com/cns/device_list...it is worth $202. Or it looks like it is worth $100 to AT&T...then you would only be waiting on $100 check from Samsung.

Best buy has a "deal" going on now.trade in any "working" smart phone get $200 on preorder note 4.
I'm on att.didn't ask if att deal only.
Preorder for $50 (get gift card to use toward perchase).minus $200 for used phone = $250 off $299 att note 4.waiting for phone to come in.
Will see if legit or just blowing smoke.ordered phone 10/19.

This is legit, traded in a prepay cheap Windows phone I had laying around and got the $200 gift card plus an extra $50 bucks for signing up in the early part of the year promising to upgrade through best buy. Put the whole gift card towards my pre-order of the nexus 9 ?

Preordered my att note 4 from best buy 10/18.picked it up 10/25 at store.put $50 down.they gave me gift card to use toward purchase.at time of p/u,I gave them a used galaxy S2(i777).they gave me $200 toward purchase of note 4.that gave me $250 toward the $299 note 4.after taxes it was $73+ I paid them.waiting to see if there is any fees beside activation thru att.this was a standard 2 year upgrade.
no trouble with my trade-in phone.
no questions asked.it turned on.they checked numbers to make sure it wasn't stolen.and that was it.I bought that phone with broke screen and bad charge port.fixed both.used couple a couple of weeks.
overall good experience.
now to see how well the note 4 does.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA Free mobile app

Damn I turned in two iPhone to att for the note 4 wonder If I can complain to att and have them price match or match this offer as close as possible. .

Go to that store,see if they are doing that deal.if so raise hell,tell them you want to return phone.get your money back go to different store.
I could only trade in 1 phone according to them.
I think that deal is nation wide.And I don't think they franchise.

I traded in some crap 2.0 LG android phone. At first they didn't want to because the phone had 0 for trade in value but argued over it. Fine print does say they have right to refuse so good that they didn't

AT&T Note 4 Resale Value

I'm currently on AT&T's network and was thinking of the Note 4's resale value. Suppose after a year or so I decide to put my phone up for sale, what would the value be compared to the other Note 4 variants on the market?

not much
it will be higher only cause it can be used internationally other than that is is about the same as the others. verizon does the same. so if you would like to get rid of it for the most money it would be now when it is still new later down the road you will get alot less for your device.just look at the note 3 on swappa or ebay and you will see the difference.

Yep, just look at the note 3 value now. You should expect your note 4 to be the same when the note 5 comes out.

My friend just sold his N4 for ~$700 on amazon, he used it for about 2-3 weeks. If you wait a year, you'll be lucky to get $3-350 for it (Which is what used note 3's go for now) because it will no longer be the new hotness.

My gf and I went to T-Mobile the other day to look into switching from AT&T. I was absolutely shocked and stupified when the sales person told me she would get $330 trade in value for her iPhone 5s 16gb and I would only get $300 trade in credit for my brand new Note 4. I was floored ?? like WTF!!

i sold my note 3 a week after i got the note 4 for $350. It was still locked to AT&T. I expect the same for the Note 4 when the 5 comes out...

I sold my Note 2 for $225

I sold my unlocked AT&T Note 3 prematurely on 9/4 on Ebay for $400.

How much of that did you get after fees?

Check on swappa.com you got all values of all phones.

You guys must be great marketing geniuses. I didn't get many responses a month back from swappa attempting to sell my wife's near mint Note 3 ATT version or my own T Mobile Note 3.
In the end sold them for 300 and 320 on Craig's list.
Both were unrooted and service provider unlocked and had been cased and screen protected from new.

Ebay takes 10% at the end of month and PayPal 2.9% at transaction. Cleared $348.xx.
On two occasions I had older phones sold on Craigslist, but when suggesting we meet in a Police station parking lot to complete transaction they didn't call back.
Hmmmmm?
I have a carry permit, but offer police station for buyers comfort.
