I must be in the minority here who would prefer to have their phone shipped to them lol I have never bought a phone in store. Even when I used to buy phones from T-Mobile, I never bought them in store. Always online.
Like Annie mentioned above, you could order online and have it shipped to you. That seems like the perfect idea. I have to say, I'm like you. I hate shopping with a passion. If I can avoid walking into a store and have it shipped instead, then that works for me.I must be in the minority here who would prefer to have their phone shipped to them lol I have never bought a phone in store.

Oh bummer! That makes a huge difference.Definitely. It's just a bummer that they won't honor the in store trade in price.
This is a common practice in retail in general. There are often separate in store and online only deals.Definitely. It's just a bummer that they won't honor the in store trade in price.

Walking in with your trade in, and out with your new phone in your hand can't be beat.. the only way I'll do it from now on. No more shipping, praying, and waiting :-\
I used to prefer that, too, until I started reading people's horror stories on this forum about phones disappearing en route (typically the trade-ins).:'(
Yeah... that happened to me. I had sent a trade in device to Samsung that was worth 400 dollars. When they received the box, there was nothing in it. Somebody at FedEx opened the box and stole the phone. Luckily, for me, Samsung just absorbed the cost and nothing else was required of me. Still sucks though. I was pissed.
Did they immediately offer to absorb the cost, or did you have to wrangle with them? The latter would still be stressful.:-\
