How's the pre-order works? Do I have to pay $300 upfront?

AT&T...charges your credit card when the device ships.
Best Buy is charging 749 off contract online, which is 100 dollars more than at&t but I was told they price match in the store if you show them at&t's price.
Couldn't order online because it won't let me keep my unlimited data plan. Will have to go in the store.

Some will match some will not. I think the official policy is that they do not match the carrier stores. If you go to a Best Buy with a ATT retail store nearby, they will usually call the store to make sure the phone you want is in stock there and then they will match it.
I like Best Buy because they have a 30 day return policy with no restock fee.
Hmmm.
I just tried to pre-order the Note online at Best Buy, except that it forces you to chose one of the newer data plans. I'm grandfathered on the old Unlimited plan and do NOT want to lose that... any suggestions?
Or just I just stick to ordering directly from AT&T?

Best Buy will price match any "brick and mortar "price. Meaning if it can be purchased and in stock at any store they'll price match. Just not any online price

Just go to the B& More store. They should be able to do it at Best Buy mobile.

I just did my pre-order at Best Buy.
You put $50 bucks down and get a $50 BB gift card as a deposit that you can use towards your phone or not.
The guy said they are getting it on release day and not 2 days earlier like At&t but also said the computer many times doesn't really keep track of early release info etc....just standard release days. Either way, I will swing by on the 17th just in case.

Does it flip sideways or over the top? did you get the $50 gift card?
Can you order through Best Buy if you're an AT&T Premier customer?
Does anyone know if the case is the same as the one for the int. version? Been trying to find it everywhere because Expansys doesn't get em till the 21st.

Hello! can i use the $50 gift card on the note when i pre order it? Also, if it is released on the 19th, and ships on the 19th, wouldn't it make more sense to just wait until the 19th and buy it in store? I live in Dickson City, PA and i dont see there to many people buying the phone. thanks!
Also, i dont mind making my Mom take me to BB early on Sunday (the 19th)
Did you pre-order in store or online? This has been explained in the BB thread. When you pre-order in store, you put $50 down but get a $50 gift card right away. When you pick up the phone, you pay the rest and get another $50 GC. You can use the first $50 GC to pay for the phone. But I think you can't use the second GC because it is not available until you paid the phone. In the end, you pay $299 total and get a $50 GC.

Phone Freedom Q&A says you can pay for phone with the card (second) when you pick it up in-store. It's only when you order online that you have to use the card on a future purchase.

That's not my understanding. What I got from the post is that when you order online, you don't get the first GC at all.
Whatever the results, it seems in store is always better because those CSRs are more motivated to have the you instead of the online robot got the credit.
Here's the link to the FAQ

You cannot use the $50 gift card for the preorder. The gift card is populated at the end of the activation of the upgrade. So you will have to put up $50 for the preorder (in which you get turned into a $50 gift card) then when you come to upgrade, use the $50 preorder gift card and the $50 phone freedom gift card, then $200 on top. out of pocket= $250
I did 3 phone freedom gift cards today on other upgrades

You get the phone freedom $50 card once the upgrade is complete. Then you pay. So you can use the $50 from phone freedom you just got towards the 299 which means you spent 250 for the phone. 50 for preorder+ 200 for phone

thanks for all the help so far guys. I just preordered it! I preordered the white one but... The guy said they may only get black. Oh well. Worst case scenario I get an awesome black phone.
My troubles never end with this phone! Now I looked at my confirmation email and it says "order total: $749.99" I ordered the 2yr one! That should be $299!!! I guess I'm off to best buy again tomorrow!

Ok at work will do it when I get home, semi-noob I should see 32GB at 10 MB/s correct? Running the test right now, no looking good, 3.69 MB/s on 29.6 GB, guess I have to go back to the guy on Ebay and let him know I want the card he sold me........
Can someone run a speed test on the unit they received from Frys too?
I want to buy this but I'm always wary about the actual speeds in these SD cards.

I picked one up last night, 79 bucks, free shipping and no tax is pretty sweet for this card! I order somewhat often from Adorama and B&H for my photographic needs, they are awesome.
Damn, was tempted by this deal and eagerly hit the Add to Cart button... and then it all fizzled out when I saw how much international shipping would cost.
Subtotal: $79.95
Shipping charges: $59.00
Total: $138.95
Lol. $59 for such a tiny package?! Think I will pass! Any other site with comparable pricing that does cheap/ free international shipping? Don't mind even if it takes a few weeks to reach.
Thanks.

How is it possible that this seller has the card priced at $17.11, with free international shipping? Is it a fake? http://www.ebay.com/itm/SanDisk-Mob...croSDXC-micro-SDXC-micro-SD-C10-/120885029049

Is it UPS or UPS Mail Innovations? Either way the tracking should give a delivery date, I chose the free shipping via UPS Mail Innovations (UPS picks it up, transports it to your local US Mail Processing Center, then makes final delivery to your house via regular mail), it has a projected delivery date of April 2nd.

Hi there,
Wondering if the Nexus 9 will be appearing in the upcoming Black Friday frenzy.
Perhaps any deals can be shared here.
Thanks.
Anything?
I have not seen any mention of the N9 being on sale for Black Friday.
Since the only brick and mortar store that carries it is at Best Buy, it's not in there Black Friday add.
Maybe they'll have it for Cyber Monday.....but I doubt it, it might be to new of a device to put on sale already.
Amazon is currently $50.00 off both 16gb and 32gb. Not sure how long it will last.

I haven't seen any other Black Friday deals although HTC has a weekly deal that promises to have the Nexus 9 again (it was there 2 weeks ago) for $199. You have to be quick though as people snatch them up fast.
Every Tuesday at 12pm EST the deal will show at: http://www.htc.com/us/go/htc-hot-deals/

Not anymore. It was on their cyber monday deal page under the tablet promotions.
I checked today and it did not appear. Although we did just get back from the store trading in a used tablet and the deal was still active. Today is supposed to be the last day though I believe.
Now, you can get nexus 9 16 GB for $349.99 plus $50 google play store gift card at Amazon.
