Best Buy Preorders?

[solo1]

SEATTLE - Southcenter Parkway Best Buy has EVO 4GLTE ... I just got a call letting me know that they are in and pre-orders are set aside so I can come in at my earliest convenience. Time to clean out the Evo 3D.

Are most of you getting calls/emails of when to pick them up? Or should I be calling?

I got a email . My brother got a call. Toledo OH

Best Buy really screwed me. I got the calling saying my phone was in. I am purchasing it outright so when I placed the pre-order, I checked on the price. The rep told me $699 and I asked if they could match the $549 price of the Sprint Store. He said yes, no worries at all. I get the call today and try to confirm this with the chick, she said no we cannot match the price at all. Now I am stuck w/o the Evo cuz I'm not paying $700. Ridiculous. Now I need to wait for the corporate store to get them for general purchase.

So I'm at the BBM store and I can't purchase due to some system not communicating with some other system, so my $50 pre order gift card can't be processed =[ I'm most likely gonna purchase without the pre order GC

I should have ordered from that store. Atlanta people don't know what is going on. It's closer to my office too.

Finally went and talked to BB, they said they had just recieved them an hour ago, and that I have to wait another hour before they process or something like that. So now, I sit and wait in anticipation. I'm really happy they at least got them in!

I posted this in the XDA Forum too. Hope this helps you guys to know what to ask for and expect when you go into BB to pick up your E4GLTE.

Got mine at BB Brighton Mi this afternoon. $18.48 OTD Taxes with Black Tie Protection!

Here's the pricing breakdown:
$199.99 EVO 4G LTE
-$50.00 GC for Pre-Order
-$50.00 for EVO Trade In (had broken screen and broken charging port)
-$50.00 instant discount for activating a new phone on Sprint Network
-$50.00 Phone Freedom GC
+$9.99 Sales Tax
+$9.99 Black Tie Protection
$18.98 Total

I got there at 12:30 and had to explain what the promos were. They were mostly confused about the $50.00 for upgrading your phone on Sprint. They had to call the BB Help Desk. The $50.00 wasn't accepted at the register so a supervisor had to override it. All in all a very good deal!

Bring a car charger. My phone only had 14% battery.

Also, make sure you update your PRLs and disable LTE for now.

I was able to get $150 off the phone. Also, if you guys want to get accessories at BB, go on their mobile site and do the "check upgrade" which will give you a coupon for 20% off one accessory. Loving the new phone!

Dang it! Called the two best buys nearest me and the only stock they have is for pre orders. Generally that would work, except I'm paying for it with the gc from the buy back program. Hope everyone is enjoying their phones.

-$50.00 instant discount for activating a new phone on Sprint Network
-$50.00 Phone Freedom GC

Can someone explain to me how I can get these?

Also, what is "Black Tie protection"

Thanks!

Best Buy is telling me that I can still Pre Order and receive it by next week. Should I believe them?

 

[zeejay]

For those of us who have used the mail to residence option for preorder any news on that.....??? anybody....>???

Physically went to my Best Buy in Watertown, NY. They have plenty of accessories for it, but they still do not know when the phone will be available......this is some B.S.


Guess I will have to try again tomorrow.

Soon to be sent from my HTC EVO 4G LTE using Android Central Forums.

My status FINALLY changed from 'backordered' to '1 item(s) - Order in process of being fulfilled; Usually ships in 1 - 2 days.'

I should've ordered it in person.
