Best place to buy unlocked s9+ - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Hey folks,
I plan on buying the s9+ in a couple weeks. Are there any perks to buying it directly from the Samsung site as opposed to amazon?
Thanks

You can get their accessories bundle package for $99. See link here for more info.
Further, if you create an account with an email ending with .edu, you can get their educational discount. You can create one here. I bought the S9+ for $777, which is a $63 discount. See the attached pic from my purchase.
And its free expedited S&H via FedEx.
Good luck.

Now, My wife is ready for her upgrade...
Where is (who has) the best current deal on the EvoLte?
We have a TP2 that can be turned in for credit...
Thanks for any advice given...
amazon.com hs it for $0.01 for new customers and $99.99 for existing

Best Buy dropped the price to $100 on Sunday. Online retailers have had it at that for a while.
I was unaware of the amazon deal,
Thanx,
Will be shopping this weekend

welcome!
Make sure your looking at the upgrade prices and not the prices for new sprint customers

I really lucked out and got it for $50 the day it came out on May 24th at Best Buy. Signed up for the phone freedom $50 gift card back in Feb and got $50 off instantly . Then they had a $50 gift card promotion going on for the phone and got that instantly as well. So walked out only paying $99 but an hour late I got an email from Best Buy thanking me for buying a phone and to click the link to download my $50 gift card. Ended up printing that up and buying a Otterbox Defender case with it....but returned it a couple weeks later for the Commuter case. Still amazed at the deal i got considering i was upgrading as well.

Best source for non upgrade note?

Just played with the note and DNA at the vzw store. I really like the feel of the Note which surprised me. What is the best/least expensive source to buy the Note 2 off contract? We aren't extending our contract again if we can help it.

Craigslist!

Waiting for it to show up online for no tax such as Amazon and for WireFly to update their pricing to match Verizon's (currently $759).
Craigslist is a good alternative but warranty is questionable.
What is the best place to purchase and still get Asurion coverage?
Verizon, Amazon Wireless for the sure. Where else?

Will Best Buy price match Verizon Wireless if I'm buying off-contract? I have $400 in Best Buy Gift Cards, so I'm going to buy it from them regardless, just would prefer not to have to pay $100 extra.
I've heard of people getting Best Buy to price match, but have never tried it personally. What's the worst that they'll tell you? Sorry, we can't do that?

Verizon and asurion will definitely not warranty your device from a device bought off Craigslist. I've tried before, and contacted various VZW reps and asurion rep

If insurance isn't an issue, some should be popping up on swappa.com in the next couple of weeks.

From what I've seen, no, they're not going to discount the month to month price.

My Costco won't, just the contract pricing.
What about just going to the Verizon store, should be a decent place to purchase, right?
Also, how about Asurion when buying from Wirefly?

Good job. I placed a Craigslist wanted add offering $550 cash but no response so I bought it full $699 price at Best Buy. Fuu.... but good thing it's worth it.

$175 - $199.99 @ LetsTalk - New Lines and Upgrades

Title says it all. Also if you use the coupon code, you get an extra $25 off at checkout (which will make it $175+ tax.) Plus there's free overnight shipping. And if you got the phone from anywhere else, see if you're still in the price match window, as I am. Going to get my $100 back from BB now. Hurry!
Coupon Code: 25RAFLTC

Yes sir they did, just got back from getting my difference. I did call in advance just to verify and they told me to come up and bring a print out of the site the deal is on. $106 in my hands.
I tried that Coupon Code and, it says "Coupon is not valid. Must enter coupon through Refer-a-Friend link your friend sent you."
I bought my Note from Verizon on Thursday for $299. Do you think LetsTalk will match it?

LetsTalk is cheaper, so I'm guessing you're asking if Verizon will price it. Then the answer is no, they won't.

I'm sorry, most of this info was provided from a post by Captain53 at AndroidForums. (I just shared the info here and on a few more sites I visit.) I, myself, didn't purchase through them, so I'm not sure of the procedure for the coupon code. I just used the info for BB to price match it and wanted to share for those who haven't bought the Note 2 yet because they were waiting for a price drop.
Thanks for the heads up! Best buy gave me money back also.

As long as you don't put the phone on another line for 6 months or cancel the line after your return period is up, then you're good.

I've looked and see nothing that says you can swap phones. Do you know this from experience??
Ugh... Local best buy told me they only match online prices if there is a local retailer in the area.

Tell them to check there own website for the updates on price matching. Letstalk is not on the list but you can still talk them into matching Amazon $199 price.

No sir. Heard a lot of others mention it.
After having my shipping date change three days in a row and not getting any legit info from their CS reps, I canceled my order today. Buyer beware.
Went back to Best Buy with a printed screen shot and they price matched on the spot, no questions asked.

I dont mean to be a pain. Basically I need Best Buy to price match because I am within 60 days on 3 of my phones. So I was hoping to get a better shot of the price tag and the detailed print. Any help is appreciated.

good luck with that. Bestbuy just told me on thursday that they are no longer price matching phones. Wouldn't price match for amazon wireless price. Said it came from corporate office.
Post here if you succeed.
That is weird. Best Buy price matched the amazon $149.99 price last week when we bought them. Also Endadget posted today that Best Buy was going to match online retailers permanently. The article specifically mentions Best Buy Mobile and cell phones, and even mentions price matching Amazon.

From what I read online, they will only pricematch online-only pricing if you buy from their online front. But when I was in store just this evening, they told me they dont really care and pricematch everyone.I got them to pricematch Dell.com and then at the register the guy hooked me up (probably since we talked about rooting for ages) and punched 99.99 in. The manager came over, didnt question a thing, and I got my Verizon Note 2 for $108 lol. Time to load up on accessories!

I just took the Dell page to my local Best Buy where I bought mine for 199.00 ten days ago and they gave me the difference of 100.00 (149.99 plus 50.00 Dell Gift Card)

I went today and they price matched it for me. I downloaded the picture to my phone, and acted as if I had just come from Sams and had taken the picture myself. They did it no problem at all.

Good catch. I admit, I just glanced over it.
I go to Best Buy a few times a week. And they always do a great job of price matching. I havent gotten push back on it in a long time. I actually prefer shopping there because of their price matching, especially up to 60 days after purchase!

No indication on how long the price will remain, but Samsung phones have been all weird lately at Sam's Club. I've been watching the GS3 fluctuate from $200 down to 96 cents (Black Friday), up to $150 and now at $99 all within 2 months.
Debating myself to get another one of these and selling it, but not sure if that's a crazy thought.
If you have guys have any questions on Sam's Club lemme know, I've been working at a club's kiosk for 7 months now.

And they only tax you on the sales price 98.88 not 699 whatever.
If anything the sale will last for another week unless it changes today. Most stores received over 20 notes. There was no advertising.

My favorite part of the cart is the fact that it asks you select a country and the only one available is Canada?
Possibly because it's sold from "Computers Canada"?
Why is there a country choice?
If you registered your Note 3 with Samsung, they send you a 50% off any cell accessories under $50, with free shipping if you spend $50. So basically on the Samsung website, it would be $25+shipping if you only order it alone.

when you log into your Samsung account on the phone, it automatically registers. So when I entered in my info while setting up my phone, I got an email with the code.
