Best Buy: Galaxy S9/S9+ Official Pre-Order Thread!

In my experience, they charge the card you use online. Only reason you bring the card is to verify you are who you say you are and that you're the owner of you card.

Well no updates yet. I'm hoping to see some Monday with maybe Wednesday or Thursday delivery. That would be nice.

I Pre-ordered just after midnight on the 2nd and Best Buy finally charged my card for the tax today. I'm wondering if it's getting ready to be shipped?

 

[mbco4]

My credit card just says pending good sign

 

[anon(1733)]

Mine had said processing for a few days now. I hope tomorrow it posts.

Best Buy strictly adheres to the carrier retail store date. Even for mail-order.

That is a first I looked through the preorder threads on Best Buy forums for the S8 and Note 8 and most were shipped at least a week early and others said the iphones were the same way

While that may be true, that is not what has happened going back to the S7.

they released the S7 early in stores and shipped orders.

the S8 was released in stores on release day, but shipped orders were delivered as early as Tuesday of the week of release.

It's just crazy that the forums on bestbuy.com have had so little chatter

Funny, I was just checking my VZW account for something else and noticed the orders from Best Buy were showing up there. Pricing was correct for the payment plan, so even though direct orders are already being delivered, $100 is $100. I don't mind waiting til Friday for that.

Yep. Because once you have it hardball that will matter. Sucks waiting but for a 100 in savings I'll wait.

Meh, poor wording on my part. I'm referring mainly to Verizon. If Verizon isn't early, neither is BB. Though what I replied is BB's official position. BB employees, please feel free to respond.

Yeah but looks like Verizon has shipped so I don't know. Watching Hulu and a Samsung S9 commercial just played. It's just teasing me now.

One guy on the Verizon threads said he got his.

Well, the one positive of picking up in store is that at least I wont be compulsively checking for shipping updates ... I'll just compulsively check my amazon orders for my screen protector and cases lol...
