Alright, I see the 32G SGS4 in stock with AT&T. Did anybody see this one on Amazon or at Costco yet?
I asked at my local Costco and they said they haven't recieved any indication that they'll have the 32gb version, at least anytime soon. I'm planning on just returning my 16gb to Costco next week and just buying the 32gb from att.

I went to costco today and they are selling the 32GB SGS4 for $200.00, $50 discount.
They are also selling the HTC One for $129.99
This is the Costco in Azusa, CA

Did they have it in stock? Or will have it in the future, and if the future, did they have a date? I've been waiting on costco/walmart/amazon to get the 32gb, hopefully at a discount.
This sounds like great news.

They had the black 32GB in stock for $200. I also got some information on their protection plan which is better than Square and Trades. It's $100 up front and the deductible is only $25. It's a shame my upgrade is in July 1st.
Good luck getting them. The HTC One was completely sold out though, only because they didn't get many of them. But it looked like the SGS4 was readily available.

Are you certain they had the black 32gb in stock? I spoke with our local costco who said they do not have it and at this point will not have it, and he checked with the Azusa store and they had no indication that they were carrying or would carry the 32gb?
May give them a call directly in a second, just wondering if you were able to confirm in person with the device that they had the 32gb?
I did see on costco's site that they list the 16gb version as $249 - $50 discount for a total of $199, rather than just straight $199. Wonder if that was the confusion?
I wrongfully assumed so due to the 250 price point being marked down when it's Costco mistake for advertising the 16Gb was 250 before the sale.
They have the 16Gb,sorry.

Not a problem I was really hoping that I was getting the runaround but it looks like I'll just need to go to ATT and buy it outright, could be worse. Now if they would just announce when the active was coming out so I can decide if its really worth waiting 2 months until mid July

I don't know where the "right" ads are, as the ads to the right show 299, as you say.
If the phone is released after the 2/26 they don't have to honor the $249 price tag, thats when the ad expires.
You can still get it at vzw for $249 after the 26th.

Best Buy does not pricematch anything when rebates are involved.
Best Buy also reserves the right to make price adjustments.

bestbuy will honor the 249 price! wont say it again! (for pre orders)
I assume its too late to preorder? Altough its not out so...
Then again the ad says 249 after savings. Which I assume is the instant rebate or the upgrade savings?
I guess if you put down $50 and get a gift card of $50, then you still have to pay $200 when you pick it up or $250?

I went to BB in Lafayette, LA last night and was still able to pre-order. Got the 50$ card with it too. Give your local a call. They may have some.
Pretty sure it's release price is going to be 249.00 whether it's release this week or next.
Went by BB today.
I picked up a copy of the ad just in case. The sales guy said the phones are locked up but not yet allowed to sell any. He showed me the boxes. He had no idea when he would be allowed, he said call every day.
I also asked about the preorder and price. He said it will be 249 this week for sure if he can sell them. He said he knew about the 299 change, but he thought it meant it will be 299 with a $50 gift card (instant rebate) bringing it "back to 249". As to preorder, he said the $50 you pay up front gets you a gift card but does not go towards the price. So when you come back you still owe 249 but can use the $50 gift card. So in the end you pay a total of 249 and tax, 50 up front for a gift card, and 200 more and the gift card when you pick it up.
So hopefully in the next couple of days we can start getting them. Although I feel Wirefly and Amazon will have them for less, maybe 149-199 and no tax. We'll see.
Does anyone know what the upgrade price at best buy will be? I want to know if I should cancel my preorder if it above $150 and go somewhere else. Thanks

i'm friends with several at the mobile department, if it can be done they'll do it. if not, i'll wait until they have it in stock, return mine to at&t, and buy it there. i like black tie that much...although i've yet to use it.
I'm wondering if they'll price match radio shack at $49.99. I'm hoping they will of course. I used to work at Best Buy, so I hopefully may be able to convince a BB Mobile employee to price match.

I also went to a best buy in stl and I ask the best buy employee, so when's the htc one x coming out?! I think it's going to be another month atleast. And that was Sunday he said this. Lol the store I went into was a best buy mobile store ONLY! But didn't know they would price match or I would of gone with them.
Still no word on the BB price? They usually are the cheapest around. I guess either way I could price match to $150, but I'd be surprised if they didn't already beat it.
I believe from when I did my pre order that their price is 200 for a upgrade. It should be the same price as ATT maybe as low as 150.00.
I went with them as I signed up for that free 50 dollar gift card with a upgrade earlier this year so that on top of the fifty I used to pre order and some other gift cards means I will be paying about 75 for it.
As for the info I would wager that they will send out a official email around Friday saying it will be ready for pick up on Sunday. That is what happened with my Galaxy Note I had on pre order.

So now the S IV has been rooted. People have had their hands on it for a little while.
eBay sellers still show pre-orders. Can't find a shop with stock since the phone hasn't been released.
Where are people getting their S IV???
They must be devs or beta testers and or reviewers.

S4 isn't for sale anywhere - but in Denmark you can make a pre-order in about 20 shops at the moment. First delivery end of April.
Right and stores in Germany and the UK are also taking pre-orders.

Does BestBuy have an advantage over AT&T? I am asking because I am trying to decide if I want to go through AT&T to buy mine or another brick & mortar store. I'm not going to buy online because I want to be able to physically see and hold what I will be buying in this case. I plan on buying it at full price, but that might change if I can get a deal on a plan if I subsidize it through AT&T.

They usually charge less. Also if you get their warranty, it's much better. Covers everything and you don't have to pay for a replacement or repair.
AND, the next time you purchase a phone, they will buy the old one back. Usually not as much as you'd get on eBay for it, but could help defray the costs of your next phone.

Thanks for the reply. It sounds like a pretty good place to buy from but I am a little unsure if BestBuys is going to even be in business in 2 or three years when I go to get another phone. I guess its going to come down to how much less they can sell them for versus AT&T.

Yes, it will. Nexus phones have always and will always be unlocked.
Best Buy's prices on this phone(as well as some overpriced stuff like cables) make me feel much much better about using them as a showroom. I'd be willing to pay $50-$100 more to get the phone a couple weeks earlier(I lost my phone Halloween) but the price point they're pulling is ridiculous.

Radio Shack ?
Why would Best Buy sell the 16gb phone for $799 ????? They sell Chromecast at the regular $35 price, same as the Play Store.
What's wrong with these people ?? Worst Buy is damn right.
I was looking forward to find the N5 in a brick and mortar store, does anyone have an idea when it will be available at Radio Shack, and what the price will be there ?
BTW I think a ~$25 premium over the Play Store is fair, ie $375 for the 16, $425 for the 32gb version. No more than that.
Walmart > Best Buy, they sell iPads and iPhones for LESS than Apple does !

Best Buy lowered the price to $449 for the 16GB version now. Better than $799 but still too much IMO, given the google price is $349.

That's $449 for the 16GB model, not 8GB, so it's $50 more than Google Play. The 8GB model is $349 from Google Play and Best Buy doesn't even list that one, and of course the $449 16GB is listed as a Sprint model (doesn't matter since it's unlocked regardless).
If you just gotta get one right freakin' now then that's probably the only option given the shipping times and inventory shortages at Google Play - but then again it says November 8th availability too, bleh.
There is no 8gb nexus 5. On Google play its $349 for 16gb, $399 for 32gb.

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.
