Not sure if anyones noticed, but its 199 on the site. I paid 250 on 1/5 for it and renewed my contract. My question is what are the chances of seeing 50$ back since ive had it for 20 days? I swore i asked the in store sales guy about this scenario and he directed me to call att for a refund. called and the guy pretty much shut me down and said no. having a manager call me back tomorrow but has anyone been in this similar situation?
I called AT&T and was told I'd have to take it to store where they promptly credited my account $50. As long as you're within their 30-day price guaranty you shouldn't have any trouble. It sounds like you're well within the period.
I just bought mine today for $199

I also got mine from AT&T on January 5, and it was $150. The $200 it shows as now is a price increase. Maybe a regional inconsistency?
If you're within 30 days, you should be able to get a refund for the $50, but it's odd to me that you got charged $100 more than me when I got it at the same time as you.

im guessing so, its 199 all around here.
so fyi i did have to go to the store and they credited me 50. thanks all!
Add me to the list of those who paid $149; also purchased on the 5th and agree, must only be certain regions.
I think the price varies as I also paid $149 a few weeks ago.

Still gotta pay activation and shipping, though, which I didn't from AT&T.
Looks like a lot of good AT&T phones are real cheap on Amazon right now. And AT&T is selling refurb Galaxy S IIs for $10.
I'm telling you, man, if you don't own a higher end smartphone these days, you're nuts. How can you not?
i got mine for 199 as well yesterday.

When you have discounts from insurance you pay less and still get $300 back.
When I got my One S from tmobile I paid $260 for the phone plus activation and got the $300 card back.

Just picked up one of these from bestbuy. Had an issue with having to add a service plan to it, even though we already have one on that line, so I just called the number on their website and it worked out fine.
Also, now T-mobile has this phone for $99, with a $50 mail in rebate...

I don't think that's the point at all since they're going to get returns specifically to trade for the SGS3 (and I'm sure they're aware of this). I do wonder though, if the SGS3 were available today would it be included in the sale? Probably not.

I just called to ask about the Fathers Day sale but it applies ONLY to full upgrade. I'm not due for a full upgrade until September
That sucks!
I'm about to pay $169 for it by doing some other promotion the guy is applying for me since my Galaxy Nexus was just stolen last Thursday.
So full upgrades get the full deal this weekend?
I thought it was only for new lines.

Just bought my VZ GS5 at Best Buy this morning. I saw this offer on the Cotsco website and talked to the BB manager. They agreed to price match this offer by taking $100 off the phone. I coupled that with the $50 upgrade credit I registered with BB for in February and walked out with a $50 SG5.

Argh!!! I had to go through the Verizon help center agent, and she did try to help me by referring me to Best Buy and using their online purchasing system. I live 40 miles north of Tulsa and "running into the local cellphone store" is not on the bucket list.
guess I will have to be glad that all of the upgrade fees were revoked, Best Buy gave me a value card towards future purchase.... Didn't match your deal, but better than going online at Verizon.

its a little trickier... they will only charge you the "sale" price but they also tax you on the sub price so tax is over 50 bucks.

Have they just not received any stock? or do they keep selling out? If they keep selling out I am sure there is someway to wait list yourself for the next shipment. I think they are just running low inventories for some reason even amazon is showing out of stock.

Your better off trying a sprint or AT&T store...
Has anyone had any luck ordering one online from Best Buy or even directly from Samsung?
Best buy mobile has them as well. But amazon has them... watch out tho they randomly like to charge a little more than asking price. Its shipped by Amazon (prime) but sold by 3rd party.
the att stores should have them...
I got mine from AT&T. Amazon Prime is your best bet.
My black neo came from best buy online sight unseen.

I pre-ordered about 2 weeks ago with AT&T and they had shipping dates of April 8, but then the Gold/Browns were all delayed until April 30. Try a black if you want to get it quicker, but I have black Galaxy Gear 1 and want new color.
Well my delimma is, I was originally going to order the black/silver from at&t. went to the website had everything ready hit the order button and it errored out said I can't because there isn't any service for my zip code. Must be because I live in the middle of no where

At&t is running a promotion if you order 3 accessories you get 25% off. The watch is included. I already had mine but got the difference refunded from bestbuy because of this. Either way go to https://www.att.com/shop/wireless/accessories/accessorieslist.html Order the watch you want and two $5 items and you will get the watch for $225. It works so even if they are slow to get back in stock it's worth the $75 savings. Otherwise keep checking at BB and show tjis website and they should price match.:good:
Hello everybody. Want to share my experience for anybody that pre-ordered their v20 through AT&T and was planning on getting their $200 trade in credit. Just got back from AT&T store and process was pretty simple. I took in a old iphone they checked it out, asked for my v20 imei, then they gave me an instant $200 credit in my bill. They also said I could've used the credit instantly to buy accessories at the store, or wait to get some type of card that I could use later.

You don't have to go in store, but I believe its easier and quicker. You don't need an email to go get credit in store. Just tell them you pre-ordered and are there for the credit. I couldn't find a cheap prepaid phone to turn in. The cheapest I found was a AT&T iphone 4 on eBay for $50, that AT&T valued at $5 trade in credit.

I don't know if it's the same at every store, but the rep usually gets some form of commission on accessories.
So that would probably explain it.

My local AT&T store said I had to use all $200 on accessories in store and seemed shocked that I chose to keep the phone instead of trading it for a bunch of accessories I didn't want or need. Kind of like they always act so shocked that I never want the cheapo tablet offers that will cost me $10 a month for 2 years.
