Why Can't You Pre-Order the AT&T Version on Amazon Anymore?

Like the title says. I was looking into one of these for myself and maybe my wife, but now you can't pre-order on Amazon. You could as of last Friday. I put two in my cart and then went back to it this morning and it was completely unavailable. You can pre-order the Sprint and Verizon ones, but not AT&T. Anyone know anything?

That's strange. I just pre-ordered mine today on AT&T. I don't think Amazon was offering any extras was it? I think you can also pre-order on Best Buy and get a $100 BB gift certificate.

That is weird - I did my pre-order through BB for the gift card but just did another through Verizom today. I'll get that one tomorrow.

Yeah, thought it was a little weird. I like Amazon because you have a longer return period. And it was there on Friday and now they're gone. Very strange.

All I can think of (which really doesn't make sense) is that ATT is not letting Amazon pre-order any more since ATT is starting to ship tomorrow. Don't know what one thing has to do with the other though... :-!

I've been watching Amazon also during the G4 rollout and it does seem to change daily. All I can say is keep checking. I was going to give you the link straight off of my order but not even that finds the AT&T version. Seems like they are staying on top of their inventory which is a good thing.

I just thought about this - when I was at Best Buy, the rep mentioned 2 year contracts were going away - he mentioned June 1st so not sure if this has anything to do with them being mia on Amazon.

I also read where they will still offer two year contracts but through their stores and web site. This could be why they aren't on Amazon.

All good points. I'd just much rather get it from Amazon as there's no restocking fee and a 30 day return window. Just in case. Every where else will cost me to return it, and only be a 14 day return window. I'll keep checking just to see. I'm pretty happy with my S6, but the battery leaves a decent bit to be desired. My wife isn't all that happy and wants her SD card back, so this may be perfect for her.

Thanks for all the replies!!

Costco has a 90 day return and Exchange policy. But keep in mind your contract is locked after 14 days.

Wow never knew they had that policy for phones. I can return the G4 when the Note 5 arrives

Except that Costco isn't even showing the G4 for pre-order.
