All the other carriers have their own "Official" thread so why not
Figured this would would be a good central location where fellow AT&T victims, err, customers, can help each other out and discuss all things GSIII.
I preordered mine yesterday at Best Buy, 16gb Pebble Blue. Got an XtremeGuard full body protector coming for it and gonna order up a TPU case tonight so I have some sort of protection for it until my Otterbox arrives. I hope we (US S4 GS3) get our dev section soon so our devs can do what they do. It never ceases to amaze me at what those guys can do
Can't wait to get mine and do some comparing with my One X. Preordered the white model today through ATT.

After waiting like 7 hours for the Corp store able to order it for me (they had issues with it processing). I got them to knock 25 off the price and 25 off my monthly bill. I ordered the blue one...I'm really excited.

I am super excited to get mine. I ordered it online right when it showed up. It was 299 though. I called today and eventually the customer rep said there is a 100 dollar rebate and it will be in the box. Anybody else have this happen?

It was an instant rebate. I highly doubt a rebate will be in the box. If that was the case, I would be getting mine for $99. Sounds like the rep doesn't know what they're talking about. I would call again and explain what the other rep told you. If you are upgrade eligible, you should only pay $199 plus tax.

Sweet!!!
after going through 4 methods to try to pre-order and retain my unlimited data, i decided... i'm just going into the store on launch day. that way i can 1) get the phone at 9am instead of waiting till i get home from work and 2) keep my unlimited without extra hassle (the store has no problem keeping unlimited on immediate phone sales but for some reason it doesn't work for them on pre-orders)
bought mine online at bestbuy.com had no problems keeping my plan or unlimited data intact
I'm wondering what people are getting for sd cards, there's quite a few 32gb out there, only a couple 64gb ones... I think i'll stick with the 32gb as it took me 2 years to fill up the 16gb on my sgs1... are there any reviews, comparison, etc for these micro cards? i know these sd cards can really vary in terms of r/w speeds and what not.

Think I will wait to get my hands on a galaxy s3 in store before ordering. Waiting a couple months and that $199 price with 2 year contract should drop a little.
Edit. With SD cards, you want the highest class number. Those are the fastest. But be careful because the most extreme speedy cards might not be supported.

All orders will go to a backordered status because there isn't any actual stock as of now. I ordered at 1am, an hour after preorders went live, and mine also says backordered. The same exact thing happened when I preordered the One X and it shipped on time.

I checked the confirmation email and order status and no where does it say 'back order', just 'pre-order'. I've never pre-ordered before so I have no prior experience with this, either. Hopefully everybody will get theirs on the same day no matter what it says...
I'm kind of on the fence on whether or not I want to order from GameStop. There's the obvious cost benefit with no shipping, but I haven't been able to confirm if it has all the same bonuses as the Play Store. Plus they list the shipping date as July 31st, and I can barely wait for it as it is. What's your guys opinion on the better choice? I wanna order it soon, I'm really excited for it!

Nope, I've already pre-ordered from Play Store. Anyone that pre-ordered from GS, have they given you a release date yet?
No date per se, just says it'll ship in 3-4 weeks.
Questions go in the Q&A section
When I spoke to the guy at my GS he said hat they have a ''soft date'' of 7/31 but in the ''training'' they received to push these tablets they were told mid july. When they have a hard date it'll be listed as a ''street'' date.

If you have anything to trade, go with Gamestop. I traded in my 64gb iPod Touch 4th Generation that I never use anymore. It was in "Like New" condition, so the trade-in value was $203. With the extra 30% I got around $265 for it. With the original cost and tax of the tablet ($266.05), I owed $0.85. So I basically got the tablet for less than a dollar. I had saved up enough money to buy it, but now I'm pocketing the $270 that would have been spent on it which is a pretty damn good feeling.
Preordered mine through currys in the UK
Says in the site : estimated arrival time 21st july
I'm going with gamestop.
I save $13 and have to wait a week longer? Sounds like I got an option for slower shipping.
And I can walk there after class the day of, instead of waiting for the mail or dealing with tracking down a package( which is a pain in the city)
Plus it gives me somewhere to swap if I get a dud

$579 is not really much of a price break,, especially for Costco where items tend to be significantly cheaper than their competitors. I was hoping to see at least a $50 discount (10%).

Just bought a brand new white Note 10.1 2014 Edition 16GB on eBay for $519 and no tax. The seller has over 10,000 transactions with 99.9% positive feedback. Added a SquareTrade 2yr Accidental Damage warranty for $99 and I'm set. I preferred the black model, but it's going to be in a case. So the color was not a deal breaker by any means.
Now, I need a decent case and a 64GB micro SD card.
I picked one up at costco on the 6th. I wouldn't really call this a bundle. The pouch is pretty mediocre, the price is just okay, but the return policy is awesome and I didn't have to wait for it or go to best buy.
If anyone else bought this puppy at costco, can you explain how the pouch converts to a stand? I can't figure it out. The best I've been able to do is make a bump out of it and I don't think I would ever try to rest the tab on it; it would most likely just slip off of it. I pretty much just use it as a sort of placemat under it when I put it down. It's not even good as a pouch.
The note itself is pretty cool, though and I don't really mind not getting much of a price break. Sammy still hasn't sent me the code for the perks though. That kind of ticks me off. The serial number and the mac address don't match and it's taking them forever to deal with it. If they don't get their act together pretty soon I might just bring it back and wait for them to go on sale. It would be a shame though, this one has no issues that I've noticed yet. No screen bleed, build quality is excellent. Battery life could be better and there is a little lag but I can live with that. Oh well.

Well you have 90 days from when you purchased it at Costco so I'm sure something will happen by then. I too have yet to receive the code. I even had it escalated through live chat 3 days ago and was told that I should be receiving the code through email today. Nothing yet so far so I'm sure I'll be talking to Live Chat once again. Regarding the Pouch as a stand? My mistake it doesn't stand the tablet up at all. It's more of a way to set it down on an angle for typing maybe? But I agree not much of a bundle but we did save some money for a 32GB model. I purchased a Poetic slim case for $9.99 @ Amazon with Prime shipping. It looks great and now well protected. Very happy I bought this tablet.

Keep checking. I'm sure it will come that way. Costcos here carry them (Washington State).
Update: Finally received my Code perks! It took about two weeks but finally here. I now just registered my second Note 10.1 2014 unit for perks as well. Unfortunately I also had to speak with live chat agent regarding errors during registration. I was told I should be receiving my perks within two days.... more like 2 weeks. At least now I know it will be coming.

Still nothing at my local Costcos which are only pushing the Note 8 and Tab 3.
Personally, I bought brand new 16gb version on eBay from a reputable seller located in New York on December 13th and had it in my hands in Southern CA on the 23rd (even with the UPS delays). For potential buyers, you may want to consider this option, though only buy from a reputable seller.
I bought mine from Costco in early Dec for $579. It is interesting though, the store I went to had a whole stack of them, but no other Costcos in the Detroit area had any. When you check for them you may want to have them search all the Costcos in the area.

Just at my local Costco today and noticed that they lowered the price from $579 to $529. If you purchased yours within 30 days of this change in press you can get back the difference or just simply return it and get another one since you have 90 days return policy.

Costco refund
I paid 579 for mine. I saw they now had it for 529. I went in and got 50 refund. I think this refund time is for 90 days. Just offer to either return it or get the difference and they will always give you the difference.
We have 3 Costco's here and only one has ever had the Note 2014. The other two never have it. They have it online, but the price is higher.
The pouch is pretty worthless. If it can be a stand, I have on idea how that would work.

Yes as a stand I agree it's worthless, it's more like a way to have an angle when you rest it on a flat surface for typing maybe? I was told from an employee if you purchased before the price change, you have 30 days from the start of the reduced price to refund you the difference. Your safety night of course is the 90 day return policy.

I purchased mine from them a week ago.
Mine came in an open box, but from what i have read, this happens in all stores.
New Egg is definitively not Amazon, i had lots of problems ordering mine, and customer service could not provide a simple answer. Having said that, they currently have the white version for $279, and you could see if their Masterpass offer (20% off) is still active for even more savings.

Yes. You have to go in store and have one of the workers look online and see that its indeed cheaper. Sometimes you can show them on your phone but most often they look it up themselves. Sometimes they try to say its not the same item but obviously there's only one model of the gpad. Only difference is white and black. Also they think all tablets are white due to the box only showing the white version. So you need to educate them that they need to read the sticker to see if it's black or white.

Honestly it all depends on the store. They will probably just price match the 299 price. The good thing about best buy is if you have any issues you can exchange easily. I had to exchange mine that had a dust particle under the screen.

Two days ago I had best buy match the $329 Newegg price. I am going to factory reset and return this tomorrow, then order from Newegg for $279.
Best buy will not post purchase price match with anyone other than themselves. They also won't match the coupon deal part.
While best buy has improved recently in response to online retailers putting pressure on then; they still will loose business this time with the restrictions of their policy.
It will be a pain to do this but worth $50.
I bought my LG G Pad 8.3 from Newegg when it was on sale for $250, tablet came just fine and works like a charm, no issues, have dealt with Newegg in the past and never had any issues.
I purchased mine yesterday using the 20 $ off total was about 299$. LOL I live in New Jersey so I had to pay $20 tax. Will let you guys know how it goes.

Newegg is usually fine, though they do like to re-sell returned items from time to time (especially for exchange replacements), and their return policy blows (they force you to pay shipping - about $12 - and won't ship you a new item until they receive and process the old one, which takes about a week). The one I got in the $250 sale was perfect, but the screen got borked during a screen protector installation, and the replacement seems to have faulty power/volume buttons.
Just returned the Best Buy one. That was $329 plus tax. Just ordered newegg with 3 day shipping, no tax to GA only $283.99 total.
I ordered mine yesterday as well for $283.99. As with all stores and sites, there will be some bad experiences. After reading all the positive reviews I opted to go with newegg. I paid via paypal in case there is some big problem and it's easier to dispute through them than my bank. Hopefully will get home from work on Fri. to have it waiting on me.

Was waiting for a deal on this tablet and it seems new egg has it on sale.I was waiting for a good deal. How good is new egg for good products ? Was hearing some pretty scary stuff about them such as used devices being sold as new and such. What has you guys experience been like using them. Should I jump the gun and go ahead ?

Back between Thanksgiving and Christmas I had Best Buy price match New Egg twice via phone. At that time they were running a post purchase guarantee but currently they (BB) only post match with themselves. The low price guarentee page on their site shows the policy. Scroll to the bottom to watch for special price match offers like I was able to get... twice.
Good luck!

I just saw a thread title about how Groupon sent someone 2 tablets. I guess it all evened out, because I got screwed.
I ordered a white 16GB during the deal, it got shipped out, was out for delivery, and then nothing. No updates, no tablet.
Finally it got updated 2 days later saying it was "undeliverable" (I don't know why; I get dozens of things shipped to that address) and got sent back to the shipper. I got a nice email today saying that since the deal is over, they can't re-ship it to me and are issuing me a refund.
Stupid Groupon. Seriously? You can't ship me out the exact same physical tablet that just got returned to you?
Screw you, Groupon. Screw you.
That blows man

Damn... I hope the tablet you were supposed to get didn't go to the other person. That's really messed up. At least they gave you your money back. So in the end you evened out.
I don't think it went to the other person; it just got returned to sender yesterday.
Yep, it's a bummer. Oh well. I am glad that it got credited back to my card and not Groupon bucks. I would have been MAJORLY pissed then.
Could you imagine of it were Groupon credit

Yeah I had a second black one. Not white.
Just in case you're still looking to get one, I just ordered one from Groupon on Friday. As of right now, they're still running the deal I got. $395 for a 16gb, $425 for a 32gb.
That sucks dude... Shame you're not from the UK as i'm selling my 10.1 2014 for a really good price. Upgrading to the 12.2.
That is pretty lame... How much was it? I paid 430.00 on amazon for a white 32GB. Was under used section but was never actually used. It said in the description the only thing wrong was the actual box it comes in may be damaged. Got it Friday and the damage was a sticker being opened lol

Try Walmart for Refurb
I just got one from Walmart.com for $430. It is the 32GB version, available in both colors. It shipped out from NJ, so I am thinking they have refurbs from the same place the Groupon ones came from. You do have to pay tax at Walmart.com. but still a good deal in my opinion.

Except by purchasing from Walmart you are supporting an evil an unethical corporation. Personally I would pay more (and have) than purchase something from Walmart.
90 day return period at Walmart! Worth it for a few bucks over Groupon since I'd have to pay tax at both places

Good point. I just looked at the page I purchased mine from, and it's not 90 days to return it to Groupon, it's a 90 day warranty from Samsung. My bad.
