A specific phone is attached to your account when you placed the order. And my Costco will not release the phone until March 8 even if the receive it before.

Ordered my Verizon S10+ yesterday 03/05, and it should arrive 03/08.

Received email directly from Verizon about my order. Shows Processing. Hopefully it changes soon.

So Costco wireless store does not charge sales tax for some reason( MA tax 6.25%) which saved me $62. By far the best deal. $200GC + $30GC + $62 (tax) + $200 (trade in at Verizon) + $130 (Buds of Samsung GC = $622 off, that's like $378 for the S10 Plus

Does $200 Verizon trade in work even if its not directly through Verizon?

I didn't realize trade in was possible with Costco. I did the verizon phone through them, but how are you managing the trade-in? I'd love the details, since the private market here seems on par with the VZW trade value

Thanks

So costco will not give it out early ... !! 200$ gift card is worth it for wait .. But seeing lot of tmobile and sprint customer even verizon getting their phones one or two days early .. If thats the case ..they would claim ear buds by the day we get hands on our phones ...

Read the fine print. The alternative is better in my opinion.

Dint get you , what fine print? Regarding?

AT&T rarely does. They usually always screw you offering you a bogo but one needs be a new line which sucks.

That's how they pay for the phone

First, you are netting closer to $300 by going with costco. Not $200.

Second, the Galaxy Buds are already all claimed. Samsung ran out.

Third, you should read the fine print in everything in life. However in this case; "Only 132,000 Gifts available. If Gifts are unavailable for any reason, Samsung, in its sole discretion, may choose to issue a Reward eCertificate in the apprx value of the Gift as a substitute. " They value the Galaxy Buds at $130.

You can spend $130 on Galaxy Buds later on. The free Galaxy Buds were in white color only. If I decide to spend it on Galaxy Buds I want the black ones.

The wireless guy at Costco said they do not even tho MA tax rate is 6.25%. They enter any price the want.

I will find out for sure on Friday when I pick mine up

It depends on your tate. Iowa collects taxes and the first payment.

[TheLastPanda]

Ordered my phone on Tuesday and it showed processing status, Wednesday it shows shipped with arrival date of Friday.

Will pick it up tomorrow.

Just initiated a trade in with Verizon online. They are sending me a box and I send it back. 2 years ago I traded in at Verizon store.
