Hey guys, currently looking to sell my iPhone 5 and go back to Android and get an LG G2. Note, I'm on Verizon and will be paying full retail. I about bought one last weekend when it was $449 off contract from Verizon, but thought that price would stick and I could sell my phone first. I was wrong, and now it's $549. I noticed on Swappa most new ones are $450~ give or take, will it stay at this price or lower, or will it reflect the full retail now that the sale is over? Basically, do I have time to sell mine or should I act now? Also, do you think there will be any sales soon that have the G2 for a cheaper price off contract? Thanks!

I've got melting plastic in my wallett, itching to be used. Given the prices from last week, £360 for a Galaxy Tab, I was trying to resist til the 14th to make my decision.
But today I though, nah, must have one. Playback my DivX... Hooked up the two websites and...
Nope, that's me put off for a while.
Carphone Warehouse want £399.
Tesco Direct want £449.
Clove want £442
Expansys want £499
PC World want £407
Amazon want £408
Scan £450
Ahh well. Looks like Im waiting for the Galaxy Tab 2
try bestbuy.co.uk, main page says 399, but further down it mentions other deals, such as tab+16gig upgrade+pay as you go sim for 359
There going for $250 on contract in the U.S.
I got mine for $50 from TMOUS! Great deals to be had stateside.

how did you get it for $50 Pittphan? i'm also looking to pick one up on contract. if i can get it less than the advertised $250 on t mobile i'd love to do so. thanks!
i just check tmo's site and it's increased $100 off contract. last week i was considering getting another galaxy tablet and it was listed as $500 off contract for about a month. now it's back up to $600 off contract - you do get $50 off if you order online though.
actually it seems the price changes depending on what page you view -
prepaid is $600 plus web discount of $50 off. LINK
"normal" contract says retail is $500 LINK
kinda stupid to list the retail value differently for the same product.
With used N7100s selling for over $600 on Ebay and a dearth of them on the closing marketplace here, I think it will be awhile for prices to drop into the $500-$550 range. I pulled the trigger on one. New Egg has a 30 day return policy and ships quickly. I buy all my PC building parts from them.
Samsung Galaxy Note II N7100 Titanium Gray 3G Unlocked Cell Phone w/ 5.5" Super AMOLED Touch Screen / Bluetooth 4.0
$30 off w/ promo code EMCYTZT2557, ends 11/27
And then you go to pay, and they say the device may be manually unlocked with scratches...
I didn't order, and bought for 550$ from eBay.

The N7100 does not have to be "manually unlocked"
That is for US carrier phones that need to be PHYSICALLY unlocked! LOL Its a disclaimer that does not apply to already factory unlocked phones. and with a 14 day no questions asked return policy, there is not much risk taking here. NewEgg is a very reputable online store.
The only phone on Ebay for $550 was or is a used white one missing accessories. I did not see any new devices selling for $550. I would have bought it if it was a US company.
ALL unlocked phone sellers should have that disclaimer.

There was a black friday deal on ebay for a BRAND NEW Galaxy Note 2. for $550. They sold 1,000.
see if this link works for you, its an expired listing now. but u might still be able to view it.

I think newegg.com extended the sale to 11/27/2012
I purchased mine from Newegg, beginning of November when they had it on sale for $589. It was brand new in the box and runs SWEET!

Chances are that there will be another for Christmas.

I jumped on the $49 with rebate Tmobile deal. TMobile screwed up soooo badly that online orders got canceled and my phone order didn't get processed till after the deal was closed in their system. So as result they manually gave the deal, $49 and I do not have to do the mail in rebate. So not bad, I can get the phone for $49 + $200 etf + $63 for the month of service. Wish I had ordered 3 more.

I am sure and in January maybe $500 LOL At some point I had to jump. Anything less than used pricing was good enough. $550 would have been great. But My Note is on Ebay now and that would be worth less as the Note II goes down so it's a wash going forward. But yeah $550 would have been sweet considering the used ones are selling for new prices on Ebay. Crazy! I am curious what my blemished Note will bring. Its at $290 I had a BIN price pf $350 with 32GB SD Card. But that's gone with the first bid. 5 day auction so it won't be active until later this week.

I have just claimed insurance for my two times in the past one year period, and will have no more claims left until next December. Unfortunately these were both on my G2... I have bad habit of dropped them. My case was on the way.. pretty depressing.. anyways. Now that that is no longer an option, where would one go to buy a NEW Verizon G2 off contract? It used to be $450 on the Verizon website. They've upped it to $500 now. I've checked the usual online places (Walmart, Sam's, Costco, Radioshack, Bestbuy and HH Greg) and they only have it for high price. Is there anywhere that you guys would go to buy off contract?
Swappa is great.
Swappa is awesome! Bought my T-Mobile one for $465 with a Ballistic case and 2 TPUs. It was in mint condition. Retail for me through T-Mobile is $654 with tax.
I didn't see this here so I thought I would post it.

I wonder if it will work if I upgrade through Amazon... But trade an old phone through Best Buy?
Last time I bought my note 2 at best buy they price matched amazon with a sprint contract. (They also price matched an otterbox and samsung SD card to amazon.com) which saved me over $125 on price matching alone. As long as the product is shipped and sold by amazon.com and not a 3rd party seller.
My local best buy(Knoxville, TN) told me they are going to sell it there on all carriers for $299 even sprint
i would try either of those options before risking samsung not giving you any money top make up to $200. If they price match as they say you will only pay $99.99 for it at best buy.

Yeah and it seems you have to buy and trade in from the same store.
I didn't realize best buy would price match Amazon and I was buying a case and screen protector through Amazon anyway, I pre ordered through Amazon.

I'm sure amazon has not charged you for the phone. Cancel that order and head to best buy and pre-order. Seems they are not getting a lot of orders the best buy in my large city of Knoxville tn had only had 6 pre-orders total on all carriers including mine as of Monday so I'm sure they are still doing pre-orders about everywhere.
Or if you don't need the phone would were going to trade in go ahead and trade it in and try to see what happens can't hurt if you don't need the phone. On the link it never says you have to trade in on same retailer it says:
1. Pre-order note 4
2. Trade in old device at any participating retailer
3. Upload pre-order and trade in receipts to samsung.com/ xxxxxxxxx (can't remember exact site but it seems it may work.) Contact samsung customer service see what they say
When does it get released.

I specifically asked my local best buy if they would price match the note 4 with Amazon and they said no. Only price match to Sprint stores, not even other retailers like Target etc.
Forgive me I was a bit confused.
Do I have to buy the phone at best buy?
Is this only for the sprint version?
Thank You
From the looks of this I should be able to get 200 credit for my Epic? Or am I delusional?
*** Just went to try the pre-order on Amazon, and it seems it wont allow me to keep my current unlimited data plan.. WTF.
Took the GF to BB today and was told corporate sez they have reached the limit for phones available for pre order through BB store's. She was unable to pre order one with the promo's. WTF?
Lucky I ordered mine a couple of days ago. Sheesh...
I tried last week to order the black model and got the same response. The white version was available, but I don't think I could handle having a white phone, even if am going to get a case for it at some point (if I get I get the phone at all)
I was told today that the stores cannot pre-order anymore, but I was able to online. Now I plan on going to store to see if they will honor the trade-in promo, since it says in stores only
My Pre Order Experience
Today:
Went to BB, was able to pre order the Note 4 and traded in a Samsung S2 US Cellular
Was given an instant $25 gift card for the Samsung and then will receive $175 Instant rebate at time of purchase.
I was told to pick up the phone on 10/16 after 10AM
Price match to amazon was accepted.
Also applied for an additional Best Buy CC, which is an auto decline without a credit run because I already have the card and they gave me an additional $20 off for that,
At the end:
$300 Phone - Price Match
$200 Gift Card
$20 Credit
$40 Gift Certs
10% coupon
-------
$30 Balance
Love you BB
Just thought I would add that it is any store, online or physical that is accepting pre orders according to the Samsung faq on the promotion. I pre ordered through sprint and will fill out the form through Samsung Web site.

Sprint is matching BestBuy
hmm At least I get 200..
So you can get the LG G6 for 288 at Best Buy right now for Verizon. What are peoples guesses for the black Friday price of the LG G6? I just bought the LG G5 for 150 at Best Buy and really like it. I do like what the LG G6 has to offer and would upgrade if the price is right. The G6 seems to beat the pants off of the S8 when it comes to price.

I also jumped on the $288 deal last Friday and it's been a great experience. But when Black Friday rolls around I expect even better deals because the Note 8, iPhone 8, LG V30, PIxel 2 and Motorola phones will be out. I jumped on the $10 /month Black Friday Pixel deal last year and that phone was only out for a month. So no one here can predict what's going to happen on specific models. The Moto Z was actually down to $5 during that Pixel deal.
I don't see the G6 going below $288 within the next month or two (currently sold out at Best Buy) but I wouldn't be surprised if it hits $5 /month during Black Friday. I may end up with with 3 or 4 additional phones before the year ends depending on the deals. I still have my sights on a Note 8 and if I get it the G6 will be going to my son. But we will see.
Thanks for the heads up on the best buy vzw $288! I made it in just under the wire last night, it's back up to $480 (24x$20) today.

Nice glad you got one. It's a freaking awesome deal. I did not get one yet. I am going to wait till it goes down to 5-7 dollars and because im on Sprint.
I purchased mine from Verizon when it dropped to $20 a month. When BB dropped the price to $12 a month, I talked VZW into crediting me $8 a month for 24 months instead of returning it and re-purchasing it from BB.
My guess is you could see $10 a month next Black Friday.
Bought my black G6 off contract from T-Mobile for 549 euro`s. Living in the Netherlands (EU), have a sim-only T-Mobile Unlimited EU talk and data plan btw.
Just got one for 399$ of contract here in Switzerland. There was a special offer where you would get 200$ credit for buying a G6 and sending in any used phone. At first the G6 was 749$ but then they lowered the price to 599$ for the black version, too good of a deal to pass. Was using a G5 previously.
