Re: Best Buy and Nexus 6

I've always heard that retailers such as best buy do not match online retailers, only other brick n mortar stores within a certain distance n only if its in stock..

Best buy priced matched my TiVo with Amazon. Saved $150.

Best Buy price matches online retailers, including Amazon now. They kinda have to or else they wouldn't stay competitive.

Re: Best Buy and Nexus 6

would best buy give me a subsidized price on Verizon or can they only do that if Verizon offers it in their stores?

Re: Nexus Devices Sold through Costco?

I hope this phone is sold through Costco. It looks to be very popular

My dad asked me if Costco would sell it and initially I said that they wouldn't. But now that I think about it, since Google is going more of the carrier route this time, and it'll be on all carriers eventually, it's possible that Costco might sell it. However, I'd say it probably wouldn't be until months after release.

Re: Nexus Devices Sold through Costco?

The 90 day warranty doesn't apply to the cell phone guys though, they are a separate company that is in the store, wireless advocates, they show a 90 day return policy on their little display but if u read the entire verbage, its 90 days exchange for the same device if the original device purchased is damaged. The real return policy is 14 days, just like every other cell carrier, to where if you don't like the device you can return and refund your purchase. I went through a whole bunch of **** last time around when I got the S4.

Re: Nexus Devices Sold through Costco?

On a related note, does anyone know if you can buy any phone off-contract at Costco? It's my understanding that you can't.

Nexus 6 reviews

Since the word is that the embargo on Nexus 6 full reviews is lifted as of tomorrow (Nov 12th) I figured I'd start a thread that we can link to reviews. Looking forward to reading more than the unboxing and first impressions.

Re: Nexus Devices Sold through Costco?

Well...considering you can only get the white Note 4 (the black one STILL says "coming soon") and you cannot get the HTC One M8 from Costco...I am kind of doubting they will have it.

Really the best deals at Costco are on iPhones and Galaxy S-series devices.

The charge on my card from Motorola went through. Hopefully that means they'll ship and be delivered before the 19th.

Yeah my Motorola charge finalized on Saturday but still hasn't shipped.. They told me won't ship until 11/12 or 11/13 with delivery no later than 11/19...

Re: Best Buy and Nexus 6

and a lot of times even though the MFG Model # might be the same I've seen Best Buy (and other retailers) have different stock numbers.... I've seen them use that as a "Technically not the same" excuse when it comes to price match.... Best Buy did that to me with a Samsung TV once.... had a slightly different model number... Samsung listed it as an H7000 series TV... and the one at Best Buy was like an H7000ABC and HHGregg had H7000ABD so they wouldn't price match... I asked Samsung the difference and they just told me the ABC was a Best Buy model and the ABD was designated for HHGregg but outside of that they were exactly the same thing.... and on the back of the TV when I finally bought one it just says H7000XXX on the ID plate.... Only the box had the ABC designation on it.....

Not saying they will do this with the Nexus 6 but don't be surprised if they did....

Maybe... but the model number should be the same XT1103 for both us and the Play Store.
It was the same for the Nexus 5 at both places too (D820) which is why price matching was allowed.

However, if it's out of stock at the Play Store, technically you should be paying the 699.

The version Best Buy is selling is only eligible for subsidized pricing on Sprint, and no other carriers.

Re: Best Buy and Nexus 6

Any word on pre-orders? I'm going to be on a plane Friday morning and won't be able to hit the store up until later in the day and I'll be pissed if I miss out.

Re: Best Buy and Nexus 6

I've called and talked to every Best Buy with in 50 miles of Kansas City (slow day at work), and not one of them even new what a "Nexus" was much less that they were going on sale Friday. One of them did try to sell me an iPhone instead though lol.

That sounds about right......... If rumors are true and they are only going to have the 32 GB blue for Sprint.... I'd guess you might hear something Friday and see it in the best buy ad on Sunday.....

Re: Best Buy and Nexus 6

Hopefully Sentrix is right that it is going on sale soon and it's not like the Note 2 a few years ago where Sprint sold it for nearly 2 months before Best Buy was allowed to.
