I've never used Rakuten but it's showing 14% back on Samsung mobile phones. Not sure what's typical for them or even how it works.

Is the 14% on the original retail price or whatever you pay, such as ~$400 after trade in credits?

That's odd...it's still showing 4% for me. You typically get back whatever % of the purchase price before taxes. So after discounts, but before taxes.

small detour: if you're using Rakuten, doesn't that necessarily mean you're buying direct from Samsung? i.e., you're not going through the carrier. inquiring mind, here.

I went to Rakuten first then click on the Samsung link from there and logged in . I did get an email from Rakuten thanking me for my transaction .

I interpret that to mean using Samsung.com. I would think you could still go through a carrier from the site.

Pure speculation!! I've been going unlocked for many years, so I don't know for sure.

If i deep think it, carriers are usually monthly 'contracts'. Idk...great question.

This was the first time I had no glitich , It was very fast transaction,
@TheMiz:

like you, this is the first time in many years' experience buying via samsung.com where there was seemingly no or little traffic to bog down the entire website! this goes hand in hand with my earlier posts mentioning that i feel this time around, there is so little interest in folks wanting to buy these new phones!!

i'm happy that the transaction went smoothly though!

bought the earbuds too!

@mustang7757: pinging you sir! did you buy it yet?
eager to hear! thanks! ;)
