Hi,

I pre-ordered Pixel XL 2 Panda from bestbuy, given google store doesnt have stock.
But I dont see any shipping date. Any ideas when or how much bestbuy will have stock?

What is restocking fee for bestbuy for this phone?
 
I believe the fee is $35. Was it for the Verizon version? If it is then no unlocking bootloader
 
They only carry Verizon , and yes if opened $35 return fee

There is no restocking fee at the moment if ordering from Verizon.
Best Buy normally does not charge a restocking fee on other phones....not sure about buying Verizon through them.

What was the discount through Best buy?
I could have sworn it was 100 dollars but it's only 25 off for XL. The 2 is 100 dollars off.

It started at 100. I know that for sure because I almost bought it through them, then at some point it changed to 25. Maybe they only discounted a certain number of devices. I'm sure the regular Pixel isn't selling anywhere near eBay the 2 XL is selling. I should have bought it from Best Buy and got that 100 off. I didn't like that there was no release date advertised though.
 
The $100 of was only for monthly installments no discount for full price purchase bummer and thats what I did as I don't use Verizon.
Pretty sure that discount is still available

A discount is available, but It's only 25 off for the 2XL. I just checked. When I first looked on launch day, it was 100.

Yes....the discount is for payments but it's only 25 now

I on Best Buy website now, on the 2XL you save $25 dollar @$1.05 a month, for the pixel 2, you save $100 $4.17 a month, no discount for full purchase
I don't think they could change the price after lunch day, or they would have to price match everybody else

I preordered mine from VZW for two reasons. One was they are waiving the restocking fee and two was bc there was no ship date from best buy. Verizon has an 11/1 ship date.

They did change the price and if I'm not mistaken price match is if the price drops not goes up.

I didn't order day one with Best Buy, so I'm not sure if the price changed, don't think so though, and yes price matche if you find a lower price somewhere else within 30 days , and I doubt monthly installments would count for price match probably have to be full retail price, and not seeing a discount there becausez I paid full price

They don't price match payments. So, that's not the case. They can change that however they want.

Trust me, it was 100 at launch and then they decreased it to 25. I wish I had ordered it from them in the first place though. Oh well, live and learn.
 
I try not to pre order anything from Best Buy they are slow to an crawl when it comes to shipping always the last besides the new pixel is not wroth the money to me hell I take an 6p over the new pixel
 
I thought about pre-ordering a 2 XL, but there's no ship date of any kind and I already got a Pixel 2 on order through Google with a ship date of Oct 17

Yep. That is why I didn't go through Best Buy. They didn't even mention a possible date. I will stick w/ Google and be okay w/ my Oct. 26th date :).
 
It is disappointing not to have a estimated ship date, would have ordered through Google, but my credit report is locked down with that whole Experian thing.

Ah yeah. I already had an open account so it was just a few clicks and done.
