Best Buy Preorders Any News?

[jbrook]

I was told they had a few in stock but they could only sell pre-orders. They said if I came in and pre-ordered I should get a pickup notice in a few minutes.It worked just like they said it would. NW Suburbs of Chicago. This is now from my new white S3. My last post was from my 3gs in store while this new phone was getting activated.

What store? I am in the same area.

Schaumburg store on Golf rd. is where I got mine. If you check online Bloomingdale and Crystal Lake have them listed as in store only as well. The rest of the stores show them as unavailable. Not sure if those stores will do the same.

i highly recommend anyone tired of waiting for BB to order through ATT directly. I placed my order at 6 30 pm, and it has already shipped.. free over night shipping , eff BB!

Yes but order ONLINE! I can't stress this enough. Don't call, don't go in the store. People having the most success are doing it online directly. Good luck ladies and gents. Good advice btw, pnizz.

I am trying to order my S3 online with ATT and I only see 2 day shipping. I thought I read others were able to select overnight shipping? Am I confused....

Did you have an option to choose the overnight shipping? I just went through the process and my only option was 2nd day.

lady on phone presented me with both options but gave me the free over night, a $50 credit on my account and the phone for free. feel like i hit the lotto. But sense they sent it to wrong address i will not have it today, but I am not complaining.

That is great!! Did you just call the main ATT of the site for ordering?

Yep, I just called att directly, it was hell it over an hour. But I called around 6 30pm, i had my shipping confirm around 10 pm. Had they sent to the right address i would have the phone in my hands by now.. which is why they hooked me up so much.

Just purchased a white one on att.com at 12:40PM CST. Its now 1:40PM and the status has already changed from Backordered to Processing.

My options for shipping were Priority for free or Overnight for 14.95. Chose overnight of course lol

Got my phone from the local best buy! They got them in this morning and of course I was the first person to come in. Anyway the mobile manager gave me $50 off and now I'm finally holding my s3 right now. Good days

What city are you in?

For those in San Diego, the La Jolla Best Buy has the blue S3s available. They have no white ones though.

 

[Csiaprincess]

same here in Fort Smith, ar.... Blue no white

 

[guinnkevinr]

Three stores in the los angeles area have the blue and one of those three have the white.

Gave up and preordered via att. Hoping I have better luck going this route. I'm a premier customer so it took me to their website to order hopefully this won't change anything as far as my order is concerned. Did everyone who switched to att get an initial email that said 10 business days?

hey all. just signed up but been watching this forum for 2 weeks. i finally pre-ordered at Best Buy on this past Sat 6/23 b/c i was told they would have them arriving on Mon. well...that never happened. Today i pre-ordered with Att online and paid for overnight and i already have a tracking number for delivery tmrw. About 1hr after i received my tr# from ATT i received an email from Best Buy in Westbury,NY that my Siii was available for p/u. So much for calling the store 3 times today. Anyway, not enough time for me to get there by the time they close and i already have my # ported to the included SIM in the one being over-nighted so figured i would just wait for tmrw afternoon for my phone. besides its a pain in the butt to get there from my work. anyway, a new ATT defector from a Sprint EVO 4G i've had since launch. i cant wait to say goodbye to Sprint's SLOOOOOWWW network that stopped WiMax build out 5 miles from me.

I cancelled bestbuy preorder today I'm so sick of the employees not knowing anything. Ordered thru AT&T online at 2:00 pm and i have not received a shipping notice and also there was no overnight shipping option either it said 2 day air but I was wondering if they just upgrade you to overnight because on the forums people have been saying ordered mine online last night already shipping out will be here tomorrow. Sometimes I wonder if there just full of crap

Anybody tried preorder from Amazon?
