Best Buy Price Refund

Best Buy has dropped the Infuse price to $149. I went in today and got my $50 dollar credit. Don't wait, as the refund can only be obtained within the return period.

It may be $129 tomorrow (Memorial Day) on Amazon for upgrades. Maybe cheaper for new customers. Check it tomorrow. If it is $129, I will probably pull the trigger.

Crap. Sucks that I went through AT&T about 5 days ago. Paid $199.

Went and got my refund today. Used half of it to buy a case that finally came in.

I did the same thing but they are offering new lines and new customers the infuse for $99 so I called and complained. They ended up giving me a $100 credit on my bill so I basically paid $99...

Infused(personal)

i got mine from best buy on friday for $130 on an upgrade. i knew they price matched so i went in thinking i could get it that day for $179 for matching amazons price and not have to wait for shipping but they guy started checking around on his own and told me about the walmart price and hooked me up with that.
now i'm just riding out the return period waiting to see if they'll announce the release of the gs2 before the time runs out.

Where do you see the $99 for a new two year? Did you speak to any customer service rep?

I want to know if this 100 adjustment worked for more that one person and what was said and what kind of rep/dept it was

As a new customer for AT&T you are able to use an online promotion that takes $100 off almost any phone as long as you order online. I tried it for the Infuse and it works, but since we're already customers we don't have access to any $100 off promotion. I didn't buy my phone at AT&T so I can't try getting $100 back.

So I called them today to complain about feeling as though I was "slapped in the face" as a loyal customer (been with bellsouth/ATT wireless since 1997). After a little interrogation and some hemming & hawing she gave me the $100 credit (105.42 to be exact). This phone rocks pretty hard with a $100 price tag...lol. I'm glad more of you have called and done the same thing. While I understand the importance of marketing to obtain new business, current customers should not be left out in the cold. ;-)

Spoke to two reps this morning both said no. One regular rep, another was the online rep. The online rep said I should just return my current unused Infuse, cancel the order and line, and re-order a new one for the $99 price since I'm under my 30 days. Made an note of it as well.
I'd loose the activation fee and have to pay another. Any idea's?

Ask for the retention dept, be adamant about the online price and tell them you want the credit. When I called I told them my brother just order the same phone online and got it for 99, the Rep said she couldn't do anything so I asked for a supervisor. He is the one that authorized the credit. Trust me if it comes down to losing a contracted $79 month customer over a $100 credit they will give you a "one time courtesy" credit. You just need to be persistent...

AT&T Infuse for $450

Guys, if you were on the fence about buying, at full price, an Infuse, AT&T is listing them for $450 online and in-store. That means stores like Best Buy have to sell them the same price through their price-matching policy.

Best buy will only price match if they are selling it for that price at an AT&T store. If it's an online only deal they won't match it.

Are you kidding me? I did post in the General forum that i dropped my phone a couple of days ago and ask any feedbacks from anyone who dropped their phone and fixed it. But everyone told me that if i try fixing it, its best to get a new one. Thats why I said 100 cause i know much it cost to fix it. If i just add another line to my plan it wont be more then trying to fix it.

That's a good deal. Considering verizon has it for $199.99
http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/...t&action=viewPhoneDetail&selectedPhoneId=5801

Verizon is not the same phone and you need to sign up for two years. I think it is a good deal, but that is me.
"•The unlocked Galaxy Nexus requires GSM compatible service provider for voice calling. In the United States this includes AT&T and T-Mobile. Phones purchased from devices on Google Play are not compatible with Verizon or Sprint."

Maybe you should ask him if he would help first. If he agrees then we might be able to set up another phone fund. Since we just lost are kernel dev it would be great to get another.

If you guys are still selling your phones, I would recommend putting an ad up on your local craigslist. Before I dove into the root world and unlocked my SG4G to its full potential, I posted an ad up to sell my phone for $200 and got all kinds of offers. This was about two months ago.
Sad to see many people moving away from this phone. Although I do believe it is becoming outdated, I still think its a great phone nonetheless. I'm personally holding onto it because I will be spending a year abroad and have already unlocked it for international use.
Best of luck.

I'm trading for an hd2 and beats!

Any Verizon deals going on?

Strangely enough, the phone isn't being sold on Amazon Wireless, Letstalk, or Wirefly (which usually have some discounts).
Does anyone know of a promotion or site that links into a good deal on the SGS3 (double data or money off the phone) ?
Thanks in advance!

I realize that, but that didn't stop all those sites from having deals for the other carriers (AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile).

Ordered S4 from Walmart![8-8-13][Information on firmware][TAKE the POLL]

So, this is my second S4, it may be a short run depending on how the phone ships!
Here is the info to be supplied by this post!
1. Price I paid to Walmart.
2. Time it takes to arrive, (remember I purchased online 8/8/2013)
3. What firmware did it ship with? (will report soon as I get it)
4. If not updated, (possible rooting before the update happens)
5. End result, (those of you wondering if you can get the Samsung 3rd party before the last OTA update) we will solve here!
6. Updates will appear in post #3
Stay Tuned!!!

Walmart Price
$159.95 cheaper then ATT at posting!
this is based on 2 yr renew contract!
FREE FEDEX SHIPPING!
My Device has shipped with an arrival date of the 13th...

Updates will appear here!
:laugh:THINGS WE NOW KNOW:laugh:
1. Good deals exist through out the various carriers, do research before you buy!
2. Good sources, (right here in this thread) suggest the firmware is on the box...(look before purchasing)
3. Athough a good deal can be had online, your taking a chance of getting the updated/locked-down firmware from hell...
4. 3rd parties as well as the carriers still are shipping the old firmware, but as old stock depletes latest will be shipping!
5. If you are fortunate to get the older firmware... do not insert Sim until rooted & booted to prevent OTA..
6. My personal S4 from walmart shipped and has a delivery date of 8/13/2013
7. Please take the pole...
THANKS for STOPPING BY!

Sorry but this thread is pointless, even if you get an mdl (pre mf3) from walmart doesnt mean all wallmarts or third parties will be the same...some att stores are still selling mdl and others mf3...it just depends what that individual store has in stock

1. That is true, but some folks want to take some guesswork out of the math equation...
2. Its a better chance for Walmart to have stockpiled S4's directly from Samsung having the old Firmware..
3. If this post is useless to you... Move along!
Thanks, for posting!

Just curious, does anyone know if there is an identifier on the box that could give away the build date of the device? Would only help checking out local inventory, if possible. I threw mine away about 2 weeks ago.
