Anyone have any information as to when Verizon will lower their price to upgrade to the GN2 for $199?
My contract is up next week, and trying to find a good deal, but stay with normal distributors. (Not letstalk etc).
Verizon store, Costco, BestBuy are options I would consider at this point.
Thanks!
Probably when the phone reaches 4-6 months old.
So that would make it between April and June.
Also, please post questions in the Q and A forum.
Best Buy will price match Lets Talk. I paid $174.99 with my upgrade. Follow the Lets Talk link in the first post on this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2048946&page=2
Find the verizon note 2, pick upgrade pricing, go to check out, the $25 coupon code will already be applied for a total of $174.99. Show this to Best buy on your phone or print it out. Enjoy!
I did not mention the word coupon to Best Buy. I just showed them that it was a verizon note 2, in stock, upgrade price and the final price of $174.99. Some people reported that Best buy would not honor the coupon but they still got the $199.99 price. I got the $174.99 price without mentioning a coupon was involved.

Very good advice, I will have to try that out. Thank you!
Anyone know if Sprint has a 174-199 price anywhere for an upgrade??

Sprint sells the phone for $299 themselves so wherever you saw 379 was definitely a total rip off.
Follow the link and instructions that i posted above except look up the sprint version upgrade price and go to check out. It is $204.99. If it is a new line rather than an upgrade it is even less.
I was just reading this thread when I saw a tweet. Amazon has it for $199.99 for upgrades now. If you don't want to buy from them, maybe more ammunition for Best Buy Price Match.

Amazon just dropped it to 199 today http://www.droid-life.com/2013/01/2...te-2-price-to-199-for-upgrades-and-new-lines/ for upgrades and new lines.
Wait.... hang on. Does amazon have it for $199???

Price through VZW is $249.99, assuming the website stopped being glitchy(I snagged mine for $219 on launch day). You may be qualified for a discount through your work or the New Every Two program and thus the $199 price. Long story short: It's probably $199 either way.
That's cheaper then instore id get it
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
In store is a lot more. Go with the Amazon pricing!
My price was even better. The Verizon website listed my price for the upgrade as $199, but when I got there, the rep looked up my account and said that my price was $149! Now I get special pricing through the company that I work for but if you get a discount through you company you might be pleasantly surprised like me.
Well I don't know about my work, but my line has an early upgrade which is showing it at $199, however, I have a secondary line with a full upgrade due tomorrow so as of now I can't view the price. I'm guessing it would be $149 or $199 online? Hopefully it's the same in store, I really dont wanna wait lol
Sorry to bump, but how many more people bought it in store, and what were the prices for what contracts? Also list any discounts you may have had please
Got Mine online for 199$ With upgrade and CVS Discount. In store they charge you way more fees. Also Normal price is 249.99 Plus tax (Over 300$) Online is best bet plus free 2 day shipping (Business days) I'd do online if I was you. Should come out to 250$ ish after taxes n such.
I got mine in the store. Paid 319 with a one year contract. I saw the thread about it being 199/229 and went on VZW online myself. I found the price and took a pic with my phone. Called the store and mms'd the pic the a VZW rep in the store. About 30 mins later got a email from vzw saying they refuned my card 96.00. Then a receipt followed in the next email.
I had the store match best buy's pricing on my DROID Incredible and I managed to still qualify for the mail in rebate... so at the very least if you find more competitive pricing you may want to see if they'll match in store...
I moaned and groaned about having the Droid for way too long now and having problems and spoke to a manager about possibly leaving Verizon. I ended getting the phone out the door, shipped for $49.99
Would it be better to get the thunderbolt on a 1 year or 2 year contract? If I do decide to do the one year am i going to be paying alot more than 249?
Hhgreggs website has primes going for 399 ,today along with a 50 off promo.
Here's the link as this is guaranteed to sell out in minutes. People better hop on this fast!

If you order one, hit the thanks ..lol
Picked one up last night. Had a $50 gift certificate and 12 month zero percent. Total came to be 377.00 I didn't think it was bad at all.
Ouch. I paid $100 more only a couple weeks ago.
Awesome deal if you get a good one.
I got one, I couldn't find the $50 off promo, but I got all the way through checkout and got in store pickup with my total at $399. I will be returning my "serial number unknown" POS to Best Buy and making sure the new one at HH Greg is defect free. How do you get the $50 off?

So did everyone. I haven't seen any place selling for less than $499.
Has anyone bought from this website before. I just saw very bad reviews http://www.resellerratings.com/store/HHGregg
The 50$ off appears to exclude tablets.
The promo code is "50OFF" but when I apply it to my order, it doesn't do anything. Their home page has details about items that are excluded from the coupons.
Good price, but the $50 dollars off coupon is ineligible for this item.

We have a ton of HH Gregs here in TN, and I have never had a problem with them. I worked at Best Buy for quite awhile, so I didn't do a lot of shopping there, but my family has done quite a bit and never said anything bad.
And mine from Best Buy arrives today.

I looked into them as well and noticed they have a 20% restocking fee:
If the item is returned within thirty (30) days of the purchase date but any of the above conditions are not met, a minimum restocking charge of 20% of the purchase price will be deducted prior to the refund unless prohibited by law. Any product that was purchased when a mail in rebate was available on the purchase is subject to having the amount of the rebate deducted from the refund amount. Any product that is returned without a promotional item included with the original purchase will have the value of the promotional item deducted from the refund amount.
Given the potential risk of getting a defective unit, I wonder if it's worth buying from them.
Amazing, thanks for posting this! I'll be picking mine up tonight and returning my defective unit to officedepot.
Any chance this is a bad sign its already on sale?
I've seen a lot of sites sold out of the prime (obviously) but maybe Asus is about to release a fixed model and the retailer is getting rid of the broken ones...just a thought
fee shouldn't apply if it's defective from the wording. Who knows how much they argue that. On same site that hhgregg has 1 start, best buy does too(resellerratings). Sitting at checkout thinking about this, I decided to pass on the prime after my J and R no ship fiasco but the price drop is tempting...

NOOOOOooo..lol. people feed into hype rumors too much. All their site means is they got a deal on a large shipment. Its a great deal.
Lets hope this isnt due to the "discontinued" rumor
%[email protected]$ [email protected]#$ @#$ Found this today, AFTER picking up my 2nd pre-order (they f'd up and only had one of my phones in the first time).
But anyways, go here: myrewardzone.bestbuy.com/offers/offersandpromotions/info/0900a76f8009596b
You MUST buy the phone (upgrade, new service, whatever from that site) and you must be a rewardzone member (free). I tried to get the points added to mine, but they said it had to be ordered from there, does not work on in-store purchases.
Anyways, they will give you $100 in rewardzone certificates (I never used these, but I think it's just gift cards to use in BestBuy or something) but if you go there anyways, it's a good deal.
Offer begins: 5/30/2012 expires: 06/05/2012
Lots o' threads and posts on this here, at Android Central and elswhere. Plus there is a Sprint smartphone upgrade $50 price reduction on top of the two gift cards. Got my Evo for $49 since they let you use the gift cards as part of the phone purchase.
And those that got the "forever" coupon thing back in Feb. get another $50 so was free phone time!
WOW! Wish I'd known about all that stuff. I had a bunch of gift cards I'd won previously and used them with the $50 instnat rebate so paid a little less than $100 for my first one, and 2nd one I just go the $50 off so paid $150.
$250 for two EVO 4G LTE phones isn't bad though, haha. Might sell my 2nd one for $650 since everyone is offering that much for it, in which case I'd have been PAID $400 to upgrade to one. ;-p
If I knew they were doing that promo, I'd have just pre-ordered online. I guess I didn't look hard enough, but it just came out and I wanted to secure my pre-order position ASAP. I should've done it anyway for my 2nd line though since they messed up my pre-order and I got it late anyway.

just got off the phone with their mobile support. the rewardzone certificates are added to the account like 40 days after purchase so you'd have to put down the $199.99 for the purchase and use the certificates to buy visa giftcards or something. and if you're thinking you can get the $50 gift card too, its in-store only. so its one or the other

What $50 GC? -50$ Freedom ended in Feb, -50$ Pre-order probablay ended last night , and the -50$ LTE ended on the 1st.. All I think we have now is a Target or Sam's Club PM @ $149 and or this -100$ RZ credit.

Yeah going through the order on their rewards site, it gives you the $100 rewards at checkout but will not apply them to that order so you're still paying $199 upfront.

Just Released Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE
$50 gift card with 2-year activation at Best Buy by 7/7/12.
its right on their website
Can either the $50 gift card OR the $100 reward zone points be sold?
Best Buy has nothing besides the phone I want to buy but if I could sell those things on ebay or something for at least 90% of the actual cost it would be worth it I think.

Yes but if you order through the rewardszone website which is separate, they are not giving you the $50 giftcard from bestbuy.com.
At this point what I'm thinking is PM to $149 and have them apply the -50$ GC to the purchase. The -50$ activation promotion on BB.com is the same as thei n-store -50$ off EVO LTE. So they will apply it to the purchase, it's just a matter of IF you can get them to agree to PM then remind them of the -50$.

Correct, the only way around this would be to do an in-store pickup OR register for the promotion online.
I think I might bite on this. Right now I pay $150 at Amazon. At best buy it would be phone + tax - rz credit - gc right?
So 200 + 62 - 100 - 50 = 112?

No I cannot guarantee you'll get the -50$ online activation credit in combination to the -100$ RZ credit. I was told that they are different sites and have different policy. If you could do an in-store pickup then MAYBE but since that is not an option it is one or the other.
It'll be Upgrade @ 200 - 50 for Target PM - 50$ for LTE/Activation promo = 100 + tax at BEST!
No, you can't pick it up, only ship to your house But its still cheaper than Amazon $131 with 2day shipping ($5) and tax with the rz certificate factored in.
Amazon won't even tell me when they are shipping! Plus they were $150. So I saved about 20$ and hopefully will get it much quicker! THANKS EVERYONE!
Oh BTW! Order it tonight and use the code SAVE15 to get $30 off
Another happy WireFly Cancellation
Went into BB Mobile store, picked up my handset happily canceled WF order. I can confirm (YMMV) BB will PM Target.com/Sam's Club then apply -50$ Sprint instant activation promo. While you will pay tax you have a device in your hand AND it will be $100. You can do even better then that with a few more things we mentioned here (which I did) but do what you have to $100 is better then $200.
My cheapest long term option right now is to buy a Note straight up. I haven't seen any place under VZW right now. I wanted to get one for around 600. Most of the ones on ebay are going for more than original price right now.
Any suggestions for is VZW price of 699 the lowest price?
VZW price is the lowest I have found. I am going to buy it at Best Buy though so I can put it on my Best Buy CC and get 18 months no interest.

Search this forum and you will find a few threads already but I would say Amazon wireless is the cheapest but it is out of stock as of now... Tax depends on your state of course.
Best buy will pm vzw, then open a cc account...they will knock $20 off, then if you opt to pay the full amount when bill comes in, they take 4% off. Not a bad deal.
I purchased mine at BB and they PMed VZW. Also 18 months no interest or 4% rewards points. I just checked Amazon and they have it in stock for 644.99 and free shipping

That's the internation version that's not compatible with Verizon.
For the OP, keep an eye on Craigslist. Saw one the other day one day old with body skins for $600 but warranty is questionable when buying second hand.

Same here... I started with a 16gb S3 from Craigslist and had that swapped out about 3 times and then I got a 32gb from craigslist and swapped that one out once so as long as you keep the insurance on your account than I think you are okay... They never questioned me about any receipts or asked me where I purchased my device from. :good:
I got one of craigslist for $500 on Saturday. I'd been watching them on ebay when I found this one. There are a couple more in my area for around that price.

Best Buy Purchase
Hi everyone,
I see people have purchased their Note II through Best Buy using some 18 month 0% financing. Does this mean that you can pay installments of the full retail price of the phone?
My mom's current VZW plan that I am on only has one basic phone on it in which I plan to transfer someones upgrade on it to get the Note II. But if Best Buy does the installment payments, I'm going to figure out which is cheaper to purchase and which is cheaper to upgrade between the Note II and the iPhone 5, which my sister really wants.
Looking forward to advice/suggestions.
Thanks,

Yes you can make a min payment of $25.00 a month and as long as you pay it before the 18 months are up you pay no interest. Just don't be even a day late or BB will start charging you interest and you lose the 0 % financing. Also as of today you have to spend a min of $429.00

Well you'll definitely have to pay $429.00+ if you're going for either phone at retail value, lol.
Love using Amazon Wireless.. no tax in my state, 2day free shipping and 30 day return policy on the phone!... even returned my SGS3 on the 30th day and no problems what so ever
I bought mine off of craigslist for $500. Just gotta watch the listings and haggle with people. Always check the ESN before accepting any device. Just call Verizon tech support and they take care of it no questions asked. I swap phones every couple months or so and my TEP has remained in tact, no questions asked. I carried my TEP over from a Verizon Galaxy Nexus, an iPhone 5 and now to my Note 2.
Best Buy Financing
Just read up on the 18 month financing if making a purchase from Best Buy...You need a Best Buy Reward Zone credit card. I guess that's not an option anymore.
https://rewardzonemobile.com/
Note 2 is $299 with 50000 best buy reward points which is same as $100 gift card. You have to be reward zone member(free). It works for Iphone and others also.
Iphone 5 with 16gb was $149 yesterday with the 50000 points.
I'm gonna check this out thanks.

It only works for upgrades and new contracts at that price. You get the normal upgrade price plus 50000 reward zone points which is enough for a $100 best buy purchase or gift card. You have to be reward zone member which is free. If you order 2 phones or more they are sent to best buy store.
Is there any downside to upgrading your phone at BB rather than Verizon? Any hidden between the lines gotcha's? Fees? Spam mail/calls? I was going to get my N2 at Verizon tomorrow but if this really is the real deal..a free $100 would be nice!

How did you get them to match Amazons price?? They told me you have to be able to physically walk into the store and be able to purchase for the discounted price. If you can't, then they wont match it.

They just looked up the price online on the Aamzon Website, then matched it. Then Changed the price, but again that is with a new 2 Yr Activation. It is printed 3 times on te receipt. But I didn't get all those reward points, Just the cost of the phone. But the fine print on the website says, it is online only if I read it correctly

How did you get them to match Amazons price?? They told me you have to be able to physically walk into the store and be able to purchase for the discounted price. If you can't, then they wont match it.

I read that they would match the price of Amazon, so I decided to try and see if they would.
Went into the store and picked out the one I liked and then said "you all match the price of Amazon because they have it for $199.99"...response was we do as long as it's "NOT" from a 3rd party selling through Amazon.
He looked it up and said we were good to go for that price....I said AWESOME!

This is taken from BB website, it is what I showed the manager to price match.

Tried today, and after initial shock they we're going along until they saw Amazon's phones were backordred. They said since you couldn't buy get it today on Amazon they couldn't sell today in Best Buy. I pleasantly told them that seemed wrong, they said sorry, policy, I said thanks for your time. I will probably go the Best Buy 5,000 ($100) online rewards points bonus route for purchasing the Note II at $299. Almost as good.

you are nicer than I am. If they wouldn't price match, I wouldn't buy a phone from them later. I'd give someone else the business.
