Suppose after getting my new Note from Best Buy I decide I don't like it (or that I like the one AT&T sent me more) and I return it. Do I have to return the free flip-cover too? After all, it was free...

Yeah! My question too, exactly, cause right now I have GNote ordered thru BB and ATT.
I ordered another case thru amazon as well in case I don't like the BB case.

I'm wondering if you can clip off the flip cover and have a spare back.

I don't work for best buy but I can say YES you have to return the case as well. I've never seen a retail that lets you keep the free or rebate stuff if you return it.
Typically, if you keep the freebie, the retail price of the freebie is deducted from your refund amount
In some cases the item can not be returned without all packaging and freebies

Most of the time, if Best Buy give away free stuffs with purchase, it will show as package in the receipt. You will have to return all items in the package to get full refund.
I had the same question because i also preordered the device in store. I called best buys 1-800 but they could not help me out. So i called the store i preordered the At&t Galaxy Note at and they said that once they receive the phones an email will be sent to the email address provided to the sales associate and a phone call will be placed to make an appointment to pick up the phone on Sunday. I have not received an email or phone call so maybe my store has not gotten them in stock yet or maybe they just forgot to call me. I preordered the Note on the 5th and was the first one to preorder the phone at this specific location.

Is it Sunday? Nope
Youll get a call on sunday. Or you can just be there when they open
I know its not sunday its clearly thursday...the best buy associate stated they get them early and would give me a call once stock was received. So it means that they just have not received them early...you dont have to be a jerk about it just trying to help in this forum.
Any thruth to my thoery that BB won't get the Notes until ATT starts shipping the out tonight for their pre-order customers?
As in ATT is treating BB as a "pre-order" customer (just they'll get like 5000 phones!) thus BB will start getting phones into thier stores by Friday/Sat?
It's possible IMO. And the fact that the BB website says that preorders will ship "after 2/19" leads me to believe that as well.
The BB employee where I ordered my note said they will most likely arrive in stores at 10AM on Friday, with the latest being noon. He said to call Friday morning to check.
While I haven't been into my store in the past couple of days to see any updates, GENERALLY with pre-ordered phones..Any pre-order done in store will be available in that store on release day. No other options. Now, it's true that some stores will either miss the memo or ignore the memo and sell the phones before the release date. The company has been trying to crack down on this as far as I can tell, making sure there is more information out there about release dates on these phones.
*NOTE* I have no idea how the warehouse for Best Buy's website handles the shipping. If you did an online pre-order, there is an equal chance you will receive the phone before the 19th, on the 19th, or after the 19th.

No truth to that. My store has at least ONE of the phones in right now (A co-worker sent me a picture of the white one, causing me to have a mini freak out)

And now I'm wondering if I like the white better than the blue!
I live 5 mins away from BB, I am going to try my luck tomorrow night. I received all the accessories needed, but no phone. Killer right there.
so i ordered two phones from best buy, took advantage of the free case and the $299 price (premier was was getting $399 at ATT site) and $50.00 Best buy card for two phones.
But i also took the free shipping? saw some comments where free shipping = 5 day shipping, not overnight shipping? is this true? may have to cancel and try my luck at store.

Yeah, my order thru BB is the same, free shipping, but equates to SLOW shipping, 5 days. And thats after BB gets the phones into them.
So if you go to BB website and look at GNote it says "ships after 2/19"
So After 2/19 equals Tuesday the 21st since 20th is a holiday, 5 days later you'll get it, so by the 27th is my guess.
I actually ordered thru BB and ATT. My ATT phone JUST shipped and will arrive tomorrow.
And now I can't cancel my BB order cause I'm within 7 days of the launch date.
So I'll have to return it as soon as I get it. Unless I return the ATT phone, but will stink if I have to set up the ATT just to turn around and wipe it and do it all over again with the BB phone.
That's my fault for being inpatient!
But seriously, even if I didn't order one thru ATT, I probably can walk into BB on Sunday and get it.
Hey guys, just saw this ad, att is selling all phone, including the note today for 50% off.
http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/de...are&siteId=dZCX6Je2w8Q-sBG3oO9zQ5oOdYyuLQ44IA
Try the link out, and add the phone, plan and data plan to your cart. Once completed, go to checkout to see the 50% discount for $150!
I just called them up, and they WILL honor the $150 price!! Apparently after 5 days a 50% price drop is not bad!
You have to call and ask for it. I called 611, got transfered around a bit and finally got it approved!
If you ordered thru premier, call 866-499-8008
Hope this helps you guys! I know this just made my day!!!
You say this works even if you pre-ordered it? Did they try to fight you on it?

Damn, I bought mine at BB for $250. I wonder if it's worth the hassle of returning it and buying one from ATT to save $100.
and your base rate on ATT HAS to be at least $40 (fine print), I tried it on an add-a-line at $9.99 and it wouldn't let me
is this only for a new account?
You have to be a new or an add a line customer.... Upgrades are not eligible :-(

So this will work on preorders but only for add a line or new customers but not UPGRADES?
THIS IS FOR A NEW LINE??
I already have a line. I called AT&T to see if they would refund the differnece between the $300 I paid and this offer but they will not.
Am I missing something?
well this sucks, because there was a 50% off link posted in the other thread, but wouldnt work with the note,contacted the online help and said it was 50% off for any phone except iphones and the note
(i am a new customer)
What is going on here today? Just click the link, the text could not be any more clear at the top:
All New and Add a Line customers are eligible to save
up to 50% on select wireless phones and accessories.

except for this.
Read the bottom too
Does NOT work for upgrade.
Just to verify. I called and tried as hard as possible and spoke with the manager but they will not honor this price if you got the phone as an upgrade. This ONLY applies to new customers or new lines.
I highly suggest the OP or a MOD updates the title to reflect this info, so that it is not misleading to anyone.
Does one need premiere account or reg account for this?
So I take it that you would have had to order online as well. I went into a corporate store 20 days ago picked the skyrocket and then when note was released paid the difference. It would be awesome to actually get 50 dollars back from skyrocket purchase LOL. I am a new customer as well.

If you bought it as a new line or new customer, then you won't need to bother, just call 611 and get the credit. If you were an upgrade then I highly doubt it will work.

Wouldn't give refund, but did put $150 on my account...Hope it works for you guys...If It does, just hit the thanks button...
Hi everyone, I was looking forward to join the I717 community but sadly, I don't think I'll be getting my Note because of some ******* who decided to rip off people thru ebay, I was so happy by the fact that I was getting a new Note, and now I'm trying to get my money back and the guy keeps giving excuses, ebay told me to wait until Saturday to open a didn't receive item case, but for what I know is gonna take some time, the bad thing is that I sold my Sensation and my T-Mobile's Galaxy S2 to be able to buy the Note and now I'm stuck with a Prepaid LG Flip phone. Beware when using ebay, don't wanna end up like me. Bad thing $600
Anyone here can point me on the right direction...

Buyers are always covered. Which is tough for selling. But it gives buyers some confidence that they have some sort of recourse. Without buyers ebay can't survive, even with millions of sellers
Only way the seller can win the dispute, is if he can show tracking signature delivery to the registered pay pal address.
It takes 10 days at least, sorry to hear you have to go through this, it will just take some patience.
Try not to instigate or piss the seller off. Just keep it cool and let ebay/paypal work for you. At times they may end up sending you the item damaged on purpose, then the claiming gets harder.
I used Ebay to get mine and they were a great seller i believe their name was cellstoreusa and also got a 2 year squaretrade warranty as well I would just say next time make sure you are buying from those sellers who have the highest ratings, Im sorry this happened to you though i hope you get your money back

From what I heard, you have to use eBay for shipping in order for eBay to trust your tracking information. If you shipping the stuff youself without using eBay to produce shipping labels, you are SOL.
Not true.you have to use a shipper that provides online tracking our a method where deliver can be confirmed. You can use USPS with delivery confirmation, UPS with tracking, Fed Ex, DHL, etc.as long add you can show that it had tracking and show proof it was delivered via online for example. I am a Powerseller on EBay btw.

Don't worry. You will get your money back, but it will take some time. I got scammed some years ago. It took a few weeks of going back and forth with ebay, paypal, and the seller. Paypal finally awarded me the money. But (at that time) they could only award me from money that was in his account. That may have changed. Best of luck.
Can't provide any direction, but I"ll chime in with my own Note from ebay experience.
Won one on ebay last month, posted as "brand new". When I received it; no stylus, aftermarket rear cover, and aftermarket battery. Most likely stolen Returned and still waiting on refund.
Had a similar experience... Long time ago with a 300+ dollar phone

Sorry to hear that, sounds like you may have been sold a Best Buy demo unit. Those are usually missing the Stylus, battery door, but everything can be bought OEM except the box. No box to compare the IMEI usually is cause to be alert and weary.
I was offered a phone in that condition, while testing it, it would go into the orange demo screen and randomly show feature videos. But it can be reset via recovery.
I mostly buy my devices locally on Craigslist. Usually cheaper than ebay and I get to really test it out before paying. Not say youre guaranteed anything tho. Still a risk. YMMV
I've always wondered, how would PayPal get you your money back if the seller just closed their account (banking account)? Do they actually come out of pocket for you?
Yes they do..

years ago you were sol..not sure how it works now.
If OP paid by CC or bank to paypal to seller you can dispute the charge through them
If you paid with funds already in your paypal account you have to wait through the process unfortunately (a good reason why I always pay via one of my credit cards, and not my paypal balance)
Here is the link for the listing... It was listed as brand new/unopened, thanks everyone for the help and support.

I just sold my Iphone on Ebay and they are so anal about protecting the buyer, I was upset on how long I had to wait to get my money. Now I'm not that upset about it. If you do exactly what they want and either use Ebay to print yor shipping label or upload your tracking data immediatley, there's no way to get ripped off except maybe for missing items or defects. I didn't get my money until Ebay got confirmation of delivery. I then had to wait 4 days to get my money from Paypal. I don't know what takes so long for Paypal unless they try to mske a couple days interest off my money.

No email from Best Buy regarding my G3 for Verizon. Supposed to be released today 7/17 but website now says Release Date: To be announced.
Called my local store and they have confirmed they do not have any g3s nor have any information on their arrival. I would just go to a Verizon store but I have a 50 dollar gift card that I can apply towards the G3!.

I didn't get an email today either but I went into Best Buy this afternoon anyways. I just handed the guy my pre-order paperwork and said "I'm here to pick up and activate my Verizon G3". The guy said "oh I think they're still in the back, they just came off the truck". Sure enough, he came back with it and I'm typing this on it now. I'm not sure if they weren't sopposed to give it to me or not but I figured I'd give it a shot. I still haven't gotten the email from Best Buy either. You might get lucky if you go in and just act like you got the email. Good luck!

Interesting. Maybe their just a little late getting to California stores....
The Best Buy stores in my area received them today (the 17th). We received the AT&T and Sprint ones a little ahead of the release but the Verizon ones we recieved day of. Give it a day or so and they will have them if they don't already. I don't know how the email system works, but it might indeed be worth it to walk in and ask.
Seems like the bigger city stores got them but not the smaller cities. I called my local store, Ames, IA and they said Des moines had some but theirs were still on order.

Interesting. It doesn't look like everyone has received these emails. When did you place your order? Mine was first thing in the morning on 7/11 and AFAIK they didn't have the pre-order available on 7/10 like VZW, so I'm fairly confident I'm one of the first folks that pre-ordered. A rep I spoke with did confirm that they're going to ship in the order in which the orders were placed, so maybe there's some sort of issue where they realized they don't have enough stock to cover all pre-orders and are send emails to folks who ordered after some cutoff time? Another possible thought might be that if you pre-ordered and had one of the expedited shipping options (i.e. your expected delivery was yesterday or today) and they knew they weren't going to meet the estimated time they sent the email?
All speculation of course hinging on my hope that I might see a new phone in the next 4 weeks.

Look like store availability is running on the site. Might what to check your location.
I think they are all screwed up over there. Has anyone tried to order and have the phone shipped to home? I keep getting that the shipping option is not available on the Verizon model. I went into the store yesterday and ask about Shipping and they said that this phone would have to be activated in the store.
Getting absolutely nowhere with BB support. Judging by the twitter conversation I had with them, it doesn't look like they've started shipping any devices at all, with no estimate on when they'll start.
Since we're all on here twiddling our thumbs until they give us something to chew on, anyone care to share when they pre-ordered and whether they've received a delay email?

HAHAHAHAHAHA! I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing at Best Buy for thinking that's correct and laughing at that employee for having to make that phone call. They are just asking for it.
I just went into my local best buy and they didn't even know they had them in the storage shelves right behind them. I had to tell the guy the phone came out yesterday and then he checked for it. I didn't get to use the $50 upgrade promotion but they did let me use the $50 towards accessories like a screen protector, case, and audio aux cable. Loving the phone so far.
Had a pre order with Amazon.got an email this morning saying delay this delay that sorry wah wah. Cancelled order went on best buy website. Paid for replacement device(full price) got my your pickup is ready email. Typing from my amazing g3. Best buy chick was on top of it. Even have ne me the option for her to activate it or me at home. I said. Me (duh). Popped SIM in as soon as I was in the car. The rest is history. I did pay more at best buy but I call it a(I want my device now) fee.

I am still waiting for my 10th Of July preorder from Verizon not BestBuy.
Amazon, UDP, $400 Activation Fee
Wonder if you go with Amazon and perform sim swap trick to maintain UDP, would you be hit with the $400 fee for not activating it Amazon's way? Given the delays with BB, I'm almost tempted to take a shot with Amazon but wouldn't necessarily want to get hit with an extra $400 for not following their directions. Any experiences buying phones off Amazon but maintaining UDP with sim trick?
Went to best buy and upgraded with Verizon edge and they gave me a 100$ gift card. They had a 24 inch 1080p TV for 120. So I got the TV for 30$ put the door ..glad I upgraded

Anyone know why that might be other than buyer misreading a number? What is the first thing I should investigate here? Thanks

I just realized that I don't have imei number and that they could swap my good one out for a bad one and send it back to me no? Is that a scam people do or is that a silly idea? Shouldn't T-Mobile be able to provide it to me even with it being on an old phone?

How did you sell it? Like through swappa, ebay, craigslist? Did you include the original box with it? Compare the ESN/IMEI with what's on the box. As well as compare it to whats underneath the battery. He could swap it with another phone that isn't the one you gave them. But its pretty easy to tell. I really don't know the full situation so i can't give you a very thought out opinion about the scenario.

I can't imagine not making a note of the IMEI before selling a phone. But anyway, do you have a backup from the phone? A good backup will contain the serial number and IMEI. Otherwise the original receipt. Or ask your carrier to check their records.

Buyer hasn't got back to me. Hopefully they've figured it out.

I sold my TMO S5 that I had unlocked and I was using on ATT to someone on Swappa, they guy never closed the sale and after having the device for over a month he sends me a message over swappa stating that the device was reported stolen, and now he doesn't have signal. I talked to the person I bought it from (A store around here) and he was like I sold you that new it cant be reported stolen, long story short today I received the S5 back after I had to refund the guy his 510.00 and the store I bought it from is waiting for the phone and he said if he has to replace it he will do what ever he can to work with me.,
I think its bull and I honestly believe that the guy who bought it for me just put insurance via TMO and then reported it lost or stolen and now he got back his 510.00 and he only had to pay a deductible to get a S5. Seem like a great deal for him. No matter how much I tried to contact the guy asking him to close the sale he never ever replied.
Sorry about the post was kinda venting out a little.
Hope you can solve your issue.

Why did you refund his money if he never closed out the sale within a month?

Last i remember, you can't put insurance on a phone that T-Mobile did not sell the person directly. You would have to buy from T-Mobile in order to get insurance added to the device.
If you got the device back, why not test it? Also, go to T-Mobile and show them the sale on Swappa. Personally, i think the guy you got the phone from is the one who reported it stolen. Hell, they themselves could have actually stolen it from the store.
