Samsung.com Pre-Orders

I have to make a decision. Do I stay with Verizon or go to the Samsung deal. So for $340 more I can go with Samsung, get ear buds pro 2 and not be tied down for 3 years. I don't need the ear bud pro 2. I also got another $50 coupon code sent to me because they couldn't convince me they gave me the reserve credit, so they gave me another one, I get that whether I stay with Samsung or not. I'm half way debating about ordering again thru ratuken and using that code.

So is it worth $340, $290 if you take the discount code into consideration to not be tied to Verizon for 3 years and a bonus of the ear buds

I personally would go unlocked if it's not a financial hardship. There's just something about being "forced" to stick with a carrier to get a good deal that rubs me wrong.
 
Got my preorder in, lol, just now posting. I must say I was not happy with the carrier trade in/deals on samsung. In past could use samsung financing on phone, now only unlocked. T-mobile deal, while good if you have the magenta max, for those of us on say magenta 55+, only $360 credit vs $1000. Came close to passing this year. Finally did unlocked.

It's not really my concern of carriers as where I live there only 2 choices which only one works for me. I'm more against the é years of being tied to Verizon. It's a mental thing as I'm not going anywhere.

If ratuken goes thru us $254 more and I get ear buds pro 2 also. I'll probably stay with Samsung if I can get verification that ratuken goes thru. It comes unlocked, so I won't have to flash the unlocked firmware on it either

Have u checked your Rakuten account? I haven't received a notification or email yet, but it shows up in my account.
 
The $$ amount want show up yet. If you go to shopping trips do you see the pending there?
Yes there's actually 2. The first order I cancelled and the second order that's live. Everyone has said they are getting emails from ratuken after the purchase is all, I have not

Well it says 2 to 3 days so I'll see what happens tomorrow. I just thought there would be a email is all. Maybe being Sunday is the issue

Maybe things are moving a bit faster this year. I have capital one and when I pre-ordered it deducted the full amount right away on my card. Then like in the past went back onto my card again and now it was just charged back onto my card. Usually they deducted it to see if the card works then refund your card and then charge it again right before it ships. Anyone else have this quicker this time around?
 
Unlocked graphite now backordered? My order said receive by February 17th yesterday, and even right now it doesn't show a delayed date if you try ordering an unlocked graphite
hopefully just a glitch?View attachment 350973

How is the status going for you now? I ordered and said 17th, today it does backordered. Did it change back?

I got to thinking more on this, when Samsung goes to backorder status on your order they usually send a email stating it. Did you get a email?

It's probably just a glitch. Their order page so does 17th.

I ordered unlocked green 512. With the low trade INS, I can't imagine a back order already, if any

On his order. It shows in stock. It says back order on his order page if I remember right

I'm in the same boat and I think it's just a glitch in the shop Samsung app. When I log into my account is still shows delivery on the 17th but on the app it says backordered. I did not receive any email from Samsung that there was a delay yet. My card has the charge on it already as well but I still have the cancel button and no FedEx label created. I'm hoping for some movement today since it's Monday but who knows. The suspense of these preorders!

Grrrr....I did it. Unlocked 512gb Titanium. I figure I've got plenty of time to back out of the deal if I get buyer's remorse. I just didn't want to run the risk of losing the $150 accessories, free memory upgrade, and Rakuten 15% vs waiting to see if trade in value increases. I also said if the Titanium goes on backorder before mine is shipped, I'll cancel. I really don't need this phone. Ugh...

Ha ha. I was just waiting for this post. You say no not this year, and then cave. Welcome!

Ikr! I swear my finger hovered over that cancel button last night. This morning I said if it doesn't go on backorder, there's no harm in getting it, comparing it to the S22U, then sending it back. The lies I tell myself
