i was told that frys electronics (san marcos ca.) is going to have the gNOTE on sale for 129.00 tomorrow. Only thing is that store only has 3 in stock.
EDIT: price is 229.00
wow only 3
Lucky you. In my area it retails for $750
Good catch, very interesting hopefully this a domino effect.
Sounds too good to be true, they might be flawed phones or something..
Fry's is notorious for flawed advertising......... either way hope you get one...
Ill be sniping online add come midnight if so ill be price matching at best buy or possable drive 30 to nearest fry's if it for all or most stores.
Hope its for ALL customers not just new this or new that
UPDATE!!! I just looked up Fry's add online and its showing the new one for this week (25th-I believe the 29th) price is showing for $229 not $129!

I'm in oceanside. I might think of picking one up but if there are only 3, I guess my chances are slim to none.

The store bought from is irrelevant, different states have different laws. In some states, the "subsidy\buy-down" is considered an instant rebate, and is taxed, whereas in other states they look at it as you're being taxed on the service for 2 years so they exempt all but the actual out-of-pocket price of the phone. To say "Sams does this but Walmart doesn't," etc is a useless commentary. It's not to say that policies and compliance are 100%, but the variance is by state\taxing authority, not from company to company.
The AT&T Galaxy SII is current $149.99 at Best Buy. So if you're like me and purchases within 30 days, go get 50 bucks back!

Also anytime you are dealing with commission there are also chargebacks. So no you arent making the salesman any commission. But if their chargebacks are abnormally high you could be getting them in trouble.

You can get it even cheaper if you have a Sam's club near by. I got one for my wife last night with a price match from Sam's for $98.88 and then the $50 Best Buy gift card on top of that.

With some discounts applied, some employers/schools have it waived.
I Did the same thing!
Got my Note 2 about little over 2 weeks ago for 189. PLUS got a $50 gift card that I applied towards the cost and end result was 149 bucks after tax.
What a great way to get a phone now though.. I used to always get my phones from Amazonwireless. But now that Best Buy Price Matches.. Ill be staying local till they quit doing it.

Looks like Bestbuy and Amazon are both marketing the Retail Price at $799 + tax.
Sprint's website is selling at $699

I can confirm that it is$699 at Sprint. I only had to pay the taxes on the retail price since I did the One Up program. My total was just $49 and I walked out with a white Note 3 in my hand!

I also had Best Buy price match the $699 price shown on the Sprint website.

Not every employee in every store is going to give every customer the exact same response. If you would have asked for a manager then you could have gotten yours price matched as well. Kinda ridiculous for you to say they everyone is BS'ing about the same thing! It's a well known fact that Best Buy will price match other online retailers! If you didn't know, you must not read many posts here on XDA, or any other forums for that matter. What benefit would everyone get from lying about the price anyway!? Just because you're mad that everyone else paid less than you did, doesn't mean you should say everyone is lying. Actually, that's pretty freaking lame of you! Lol

Go to another best buy. What they told you was untrue. Like I said I got lucky with the $250 that I paid simply because the manager didn't inquire any further after seeing the price on the radio shack website. But at the very least you should get 50 off.
