Well after getting my new Note 4 today, I wanted to get a watch. Read online that it was released today but Best Buy didn't have any in nor had a model. Checked the website and it shows that you can preorder and it will be released in March 2015? That's odd. Has anyone been successful at purchasing at Best Buy?
Best Buy
I went to the Best Buy store after I bought a Gear S from Sprint. The Samsung rep at the store had no word as to when they were getting any.

Yea I see that the carriers have them, but since I have Best Buy Gift Cards, I have to purchase from Best Buy. Hopefully they get some in sooner than March 2015.
Waiting out best buy too. Their smatwatch protection plan is awesome

go to best buy and buy a visa debit gift card. they cost $5.95, but are great for converting gift cards to regular money. then go get your gear s at your carrier (if they have it)

It seems the buy outright price has risen a tad bit Samsung 329.99
White will be exclusive to best buy (supposedly) So if you buy from here try to price match AT&T 299.99 outright
I ordered the Galaxy Gear S yesterday from Best Buy and it shows it shipped and received a tracking number today.

it's live on the website, but no GSP plan showed up on the listing. I called and chatted and both reps said that there was not a GSP for the gear S...
I bought mine last night in the store. They do cover the watch.

Short answer is no, unless they are going to only be sold online only and not in stores(VZW Stores) and I really doubt that is happening. Sorry. VZW stores don't receive shipments on Sundays either so no chance.
apparently the tbolt is on the bestbuy ad. actually printed out paper. 299 tho.
Thursday only, look it up

My best buy told me (as of 11:30am NY time) that they have no release date at all.
Which is better than the other best buys I called last week telling me they had them and would sell on the 24th..
BMX tweeted that this week was a go. I am betting Thursday.
Yesterday I asked someone working at a kiosk in Costco about the TB, he said he had no idea about a release date but did say that Best Buy had 60 days of exclusivity. Waiting an extra 2 months to pick this phone up from a reseller, for what it's actually worth, makes this a definite pass for me.
Best Buy has had them in stock for a week or so.

It was in last week's ad at 249. The printed ad.
Also, some BB locations have had them in stock already for a week or so. Just could not sell yet.

Amazon and Wirefly and others should have it day 1. Its only retail store exclusive, not completely exclusive.
This may be why Verizon stores also have not received the phones yet. Because they are retail exclusive to Best Buy, the way the Nexus S is on T-Mobile, Best Buy only in stores, or online.
Told u
Also retail exclusive doesn't apply to verizon, they sell the phone no matter what. BB just gets to say they are the other store you can get it from

I don't think VZW stores would get as many accessories and promotional material as they did for the device and not sell it.

Just picked up my OG on Friday from the local AT&T store. When I looked at the price card under the display it said ask an associate about your $50 accessories credit.
So I did and he told me with the OG I got $50 of free accessories. So I got the bumper case and a 4 pack of NFC tags.
When I got the receipt, the promo code actually knocked the phone down to $149 and I paid for the accessories.
Probably going to take the case back and see if I can get a refund.
ordered mine online. Wonder if the store will do that for me?
all depends on the manager...but I would doubt it.

They will but you may have to argue a bit with them like I did today. I first called 611 and the woman had no idea about it but game me a $25 credit to my account after I spent 10 minutes trying to explain what was going on to her. Then I headed to the at&t store to ask them about it I spoke with the first rep who was not so helpful but he got his manager, I explained that I bought my phone on the 8th of November and that when I bought it they had no accessories and that I would like my free ones. Took about 5 minutes of talking to her but she finally gave in after I showed her my receipt to prove I didnt get it when I bought the phone.
I also told her that since I was still in my 14 day return period I would just return it and head over to best buy and buy it for for $99 but would rather just have the accessories I should have got from the get go as it is finally set up the way I want it.
Did a Google search and couldn't find anything cheaper. Does anyone know of any good deals?
Thanks!

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 .

Guys, I am prepping mine to sell, and would rather have it go to an XDA'er than some person on CL. PM me if interested this evening, otherwise it's going up on the Want to Sell tomorrow. In perfect shape, it's had a screen protector and case on it since I left the store.

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?

A gently used one at Swappa is your best bet given the age of the device.
I got mine a few weeks ago for $399 new, plus a $100 VISA gift card. The Company ended up just refunding $100 to my CC, so I paid $299 for new 32gb.

it usually ships ahead of the schedule if the machines is really in stock.
my guess is tomorrow the ship out date.
Is there any word if this will be available in the lighter silver for AT&T? Verizon seems to be the only carrier to have that color so far.
Can anyone confirm this is the 32gb version from ATT.
Mine shipped. Will be here by 3pm tomorrow.
