Best Buy pre-order pick up

[Denisew 1972]

Best Buy just called to make an appointment to pick up my phone tomorrow, how nice. They confirmed my phone and bundled the charger with it. Unfortunately the charges are black... I kinda wanted white to match the phone but hey, it's free right! I'm excited, feel like a kid at Christmas!

Crazy how we get so excited over a phone. I'm waiting for my email with shipping info. White gs6 32 GB. Anxiously waiting!

LOL true, very true. In my defense I am still running with a Galaxy S3... I've been patient I think... But yea, I'm super silly excited... I just hope this phone holds up as long as my S3 did.

I pre-ordered mine March 27 & haven't gotten an email & no phone call. Needless to say, I am pissed off & will be there at their opening tomorrow & demand my $50 back & will never use them again.

It'll probably be at the store when you go.

Not for nothing but in reading everyone's post on this thread I can feel your paaaain !?!?!?

I preordered mine via ATT and had it since Wednesday with which actually was a day earlier than expected ?? The anticipation kills us tech folks and granted it's just a phone but as much as we all try to convince ourselves of this ........ it's so so painful nevertheless !!! Hope everyone gets their notification emails to come on in sooooon !!!! Good luck !

My Best Buy just informed me they did not receive any of their At&t preorders yet. What a bummer.

 

[zanois]

yep, same here, have been informed Best Buy has not received any AT&T phones...... so much for pre-ordering

Mine hasn't received AT&T 64gb white Edge models. That's just what I ordered too.

I am going to best buy right now and if they tell me the same thing i am cancelling my preorder and going to AT&T next door and never preordering from them ever again. What a sham!!

 

[dgravo]

Problem with that is both AT&T's near me don't have anything but 32GB's.

I'm thinking I'll be disappointed too. Never got an email or call. Sprint 64 black model. Going there in a few hours. Yep. Never will pre order again from Worst Buy.

Wow, that sucks! While I'm not too fond of Verizon when it comes to their software updates, I have to say when it comes to pre-orders they don't disappoint. I got my S6E a day before it was scheduled and I didn't even pay for overnight. For someone that is anxious like everyone else, I would have to say VZ delivered on this one.

Lol! Just got a call to setup appt for pickup. Amazing. 15 mins before store opens.

I would imagine that, depending on when you pre-ordered, the store allocation hadn't quite caught up with the number of pre-orders. My local BB said that they will probably get more in today, and those will go to fill more pre-orders.

I actually pre-ordered two, one about a week ago and one yesterday (mostly just to get the free charger), and that's what they told me. They will probably get drop shipments in daily (knowing how it worked for iPhones it makes sense). So hopefully today or tomorrow both will arrive at the store.

Called best buy and stopped by and they dont have any AT&T models in. Called local AT&T store and they have it in stock. Went to AT&T and got myself the galaxy edge 32GB in black. NEVER EVER BEST BUY!!!!

 

[dgravo]

Just received my BB email. It better be there when I stop by after work.

Just got the email to pick up my Black 64GB at Best Buy...No wireless charger though...

 

[sandoff]

Never got an email from best buy but I showed and my phone was ready!

Was there at 10:05 AM to pick up my white 32 gig edge. No problems they had set aside with the charger, got a nice little black Samsung bag, and the Samsung rep threw in two T-shirts and a cheap TPU case while I wait for my Spigen cases to arrive. I did overhear one of the Best Buy workers say that they did not have any 64 gig in white for the edge. But that was for people walking in the store who had not pre-ordered. Still can't believe it cost me $60 in taxes! And I picked up an $11 Zagg screen protector to wait until mine arrives.

All in all they could not have done a better job, and I was number one to go through line so there were a few issues with the "Smart Switch" that the Samsung rep have to remedy based on which WiFi connection he was pulling in the store. One was just deathly slow. Besides that the battery came at 40% charged, I had it plugged into my laptop just playing with the while I try to go through and dismantle my S4. Some contacts were saved to device not to Google plus. Anyway, all in all I could not have been easier and was way easier than the switch from an iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5 I did a few years ago. That was a total hassle because you had to sign into your Apple ID which if anybody has ever forgotten your Apple ID even on a simple iTunes card is a total pain.

Now as I am left with S4 brick that I will probably give for one of the kids to play with, I am envious of the very little battery that I have used off of the S4 compared to the S6 but I have not really done a whole lot of tweaking yet.
