What did you pre-pre-order?

I was really mad with the Samsung Bait & Switch after registering July 26th. Got the pre-order email around 2 hours after the Samsung Unpacked Event was over. I jumped on the link and started making my selections & come to find out they are only offering $300.00 trade-in value for my Note 9! WTH! When Registering, Samsung wasn't just implying I'd get up to $600.00 trade-in value for my Note 9, they actually displayed it that way (even after I selected AT&T!). I was convinced of this (as so, so many others were too).
So, I did end up ordering a Note 10+/256GB, Aura Glow & selected to trade in my Note 9 for $300.00. I got a $200.00 Samsung merchandise credit ($50.00 for early reserving & $150.00 bonus). I might sell my N9 and just have Samsung charge me the $300.00.
Before I submitted my order online from my computer, I decided to click on the pre-order email link using my phone and thought maybe using the Shop Samsung app would get me a better deal. The N9 trade-in value was the same and all of the "packages" that were offered via my computer weren't displayed but it did display that I had a $200.00 credit and could click through different tabs/sections (wearables, tablets, cases, accessories). Only when I first accessed the cases section, there were several deals on new cases. If I selected a color other than black, the deal was gone. I had to use the back arror and go to the previous section to come back and see the case deals again (in black only) so I jumped on three of them for a total of $13.34! Huge mark down!
I wanted to get that 45W Charger but the way that dumb Samsung listed the items, it didn't confirm the specs of the item & the picture didn't show a US plug, just the 2-post one used in Korea (and elsewhere ?) so I didn't order the charger. I still have $186. credit but hopefully can use that on an Active2 Watch next month.
By using the Shop Samsung app, I was able to apply the $33.00 I had in points from using Samsung Pay. Online, I could have got an eBates/Rakutan rebate of 3% (and maybe could have gotten both but didn't followup for a phone order...oh well.)
Still looking forward to this Note 10+ no matter what anyone says!

Just pre-ordered the Note 10+ and some other goodies!!! does anyone know how the trade in work's? do they send me a return box when I receive my new phone?? thanks
 
I ordered the Tab S5e but would have waited and used it on the watch.

Probably.... Better this way I don't spend $750 on the Tab S6.

They send a pre-paid mailing label. I can't remember if I got a box but probably. You can't add more tracking or insurance or anything like that with a pre-paid label. Just in the past month I got an email from Samsung that they accepted my Note 8 trade-in! I never got an email before that & was never charged on my credit card so didn't worry. I have been getting other Welcome Emails from Samsung recently too for the old phones. They must have had an email software glitch! LOL! I did get an apology email saying they sent an email out in error & to disregard. This week I've gotten emails that said "See what's new with your Galaxy Note8!" and "See what's new with your Galaxy Note9!" One and two years old. UGH!
 
I could only reserve, have to wait for follow up email from samsung
Note 10+Aura Blue 256gb (Unlocked)
 
Note 10+ Glow 256gb (Unlocked) - $200 credit (hopefully I can use on the Active 2) - $600 S10+ - ship date 08/21
 
For good measure I also pre ordered the Note 10 regular version lol.

Just in case I change my mind to want the smaller version because of size. I'll decide over the next few days which one I want to keep and then cancel the other.

Wasn't planning to upgrade but couldn't pass up deal buy $1500 worth of devices for $700. I held off buying the Tab S5e so this worked out well.
