Best source for non upgrade note? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

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.

Anybody have any experience with Costco? Do they sell phones at a discount without contract?

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.

Buying TB: Best Buy or VZW Web/Store?

I'm glad it's coming soon. I'm wondering what benefits would buying from best buy vs verizon.
I am actually looking to buy two.
One as an upgrade for myself. The other for my girlfriend, porting her number over from sprint.
Upgrade for me I know either will be fine. But I am unsure how well BBY can port numbers and if it would be better dealing with verizon directly.
Best Buy no MIR (I guess none at Verizon too), larger selection of cases and accesories. Best Buy still has a machine that can transfer contacts and photos (e.g. if you're not coming from a prior google phone w/ backed up contacts). If you want protection best buy has a 9.99 a month option, covers accidental damage, battery replacement, hardware issues (but not theft) no deductible while verizon's insurance is cheaper, has a deductible. Free enrollment right now with the buy back program.
Cons: limited stock, generally not sent as many units as verizon (highly suggest you pre-order), some people just hate best buy and refuse to shop there. some accessories might be more expensive
As far as porting goes, just bring in your girlfriends bill or account number and best buy will have no problems porting over her sprint number. just make sure she is fully out of contract vs eligible for an upgrade. Otherwise she will pay an etf with sprint.
Thanks for the info!
I don't care much for best buy either but will shop there when deals are good.
She will have a etf regardless but with her contant dropped calls it is worth it.
Anyway, I don't usually load up on accessories. When I do it is usually an extended battery and holdster from seidio. I love seido.
One question.... can best buy bill equipment to my account if I pre-order?
I'd like to have one billed on my account for my upgrade... I asked a best buy rep.... said not possible. So VZW for at least one of them
Yea they cannot bill through Verizon. As far as extended batteries go, the one that is currently sold for the evo probably wont work
Does anyone know if BB can transfer an upgrade from another line on the account for a preorder?

just activate it on that line then call vzw and have them move the phones to the correct lines... I had to do this for my incredible... you just have to call and then hit *228 and reprogram both phones after they correct the esn numbers...
If i have an early upgrade (upgrade after 13 months on a 2-year contract) can i buy the phone at a 2-year contract price from best buy?

I bought at best buy cause it included the buy back program for free promotion... they estimated the phone will be worth 130 in 2 years when its at end of life...

Best Buy will not do 1 year contracts, I refuse to sign a new contract that says I have to wait 20 months for an upgrade. Not in this day in age anyway.
Just pre ordered. Buy back program is a good incentive makes for earlier upgrade possibilities. Paying full retail

No, it was $599 at launch on Verizon and still is.
another cheaper way to get this is(verizon retail price), price match this to bestbuy for 599 and then use chase freedom credit card to get another 5% cash back(at bestbuy).
Or use amex credit card(by syncing them to twitter) u get 20$ back for 200$ spent at bestbuy..
and then use the chase freedom to pay the remaing 400$ and get back 5%(20$) at bestbuy .

Damn! Special friend pricing? I've been wanting the DNA, but I sure would like to pay a little less than $600.
wow $450 is very nice deal.
my bro was up for an upgrade end of this month, and my father in February 2013, (I bought Inc4 day it came out as my 2 year). My father gave me his upgrade for my bday(in Feb.) present.
So, I took my brothers upgrade and early upgraded to get the DNA (will be here Monday) and my brother can use my father's in Feb.
Paid $246 with tax and all the other crap.
$450 though is a heck of a deal.
Can't wait to get this phone, can't go wrong with having a DINC4G LTE for back-up either , should be ok til 3/2014 lol
Should be getting the nex7 sometime after xmas, gotta have some AOSP lovin in your life right?

How is it that this phone is $199 at AT&T and at Best Buy I can get it for $99?

That's how I ended up with my One X.
If you want the BB price, but want to buy from AT&T, check if your credit card has some sort of price protection. My card has it. I just had to call in and they open a claim. You fill out some paperwork and send in the advertisement with the price and they send you a check for the difference up to $250. I'm waiting for my paperwork for the OG right now.
BBUY price match to Amazon $50
Best Buy has a deal right now where you can sign up before Sunday to get a $50 gift card when you upgrade, but they will also price match to Amazon.
I got the price match a few weeks back and got the phone for $50. The $50 gift card would've been nice, but I had to buy before the end of last month for another deal. $50 credit on my AMEX is better than $50 at Best Buy.
tl;dr Best Buy price match to Amazon = $50 plus tax [on unlocked price].

Best buy makes commission based on how many they sell. So if it is free they make commission only but if it is more they make commission plus the price. The phones are worth 600 so either way your carrier loses money in the short term which is why there are contracts to keep you locked in. Best buy is paid by carriers for giving them 2yr customers.

Where would I get a best price for an upgrade for OG?
I tried Best Buy and they said they only activate new lines. I'm not sure if I was lied to by a sales rep so they would not waste time on customers with lower commission than activation a new line. Other places have the same attitude. It seems only ATT stores do upgrades and also phones are the cheapest there when you upgrade.
BTW, I am eligible for an upgrade (not early or anything).

Best Buy Mobile employees do not receive commission, and they also do do upgrades so you were lied to or at least misinformed but it wasn't because of commission... Perhaps a misunderstanding or a new employee, but as far as I know Costco is the cheapest right now but Best Buy will match any ones price so Best Buy is always the cheapest if you use price match.
The question is which stores have good prices on phone upgrades?
(They usually advertise new line prices only and upgrades are more expensive than AT&T store)

I just got two DNAs from best buy last Tuesday. They priced matched the $50 price that Amazon had. I ended up getting them both for free because I signed up for the $50 gift card offer that best buy was offering the week before. They gave me 2 $50 gift cards for signing a new wireless contract.
I switched from T-Mobile. I had the HTC Amaze. So far I don't regret the change. But the only thing that I'll miss from my Amaze is the 32gb ext sd card. It's going to take a bit to adjust the limited space that's on the DNA. Other than that, I'm really enjoying the DNA with the Venom Rom.

There is no cons from buying there I have bought phones from amazon in the past and they were brand new and worked great.
The reason some don't buy from them or Best Buy, etc... is if you cancel within 6 months or something, you pay their $350 early term fees in addition to Verizon.

Also anytime you are dealing with commission there are also chargebacks. So no you arent making the salesman any commission. But if their chargebacks are abnormally high you could be getting them in trouble.

With some discounts applied, some employers/schools have it waived.
I Did the same thing!
Got my Note 2 about little over 2 weeks ago for 189. PLUS got a $50 gift card that I applied towards the cost and end result was 149 bucks after tax.
What a great way to get a phone now though.. I used to always get my phones from Amazonwireless. But now that Best Buy Price Matches.. Ill be staying local till they quit doing it.
