The best deal was this morning at Microsoft. $200 off plus free galaxy buds in addition to the high trade in values. Could have also used chase offers.
They were quick to jump on it to lower all the trade in values by lunch lol
On a slightly related note there is a sale on the Galaxy S9 64gb going for $300 on ebay. It is open box but the seller has over 10k feedback with 99.6% positive. Also offer free 30 day returns. I bought one this week and considering some of my friends still have one it is still a great phone for those who do not want spend lot on the latest model.
Just got the Note 10+ through PerksAtWork with 15% back + credit card points.
Samsung sent me an email this morning which made my trade in value of the Note 9 worth essentially $382 (assuming you could pay $899.99 on Amazon, my subtotal after trade in came to $517.99).
Factor in tax, the total I paid was $560.72 (includes galaxy buds as well, same note 10+ 256gb unlocked, white). But I will get $78 back through PerksAtWork, and I’ll just say 2% back on the credit card, brings my actual total cost to $471.50. Side note, I earned 1040 samsung points as well. Alternatively if you have the Chase Business card with the Samsung offer, you could get even more $$ back.
Alternatively I could have bought using this deal, paid $899.99+tax=$974. Minus 20%, so $180, cost without trade in $794. If I sold my Note 9 on eBay, I’d be lucky to get $300 after eBay fees, PayPal fees and shipping costs. $494 going this route.
One other minor difference, is I was able to choose the Aura Glow Silver wireless galaxy buds, which I prefer over the black ones that come with the Amazon deal. All in all, both are pretty good deals but I like the less amount of effort selling my existing Note 9 and saving $22 by going the route I went. Of course if your employer doesn’t with with Insperity / offer PerksAtWork then this is probably your best bet.
Nice math and comparison.
Unfortunately, all the Samsung deals are useless for me as I’m a Samsung user of International variants (having specific demands w/ international Samsung Pay app, since Samsung Pay is strongly region-specific)
But still, all the deals are good, going Amazon might just feel more robust to some guys, so just enjoy the phone and forget abt math just for now, maybe?
Best Buy currently has much better deals on the Samsung phones that started today. Check out their site for all the Samsung flagship phones. I went with the Verizon Note 10+ for $27.08/month at $650 total (and it’s just a $450 down payment credit so you can pay off the phone and unlock soon after purchase if that’s your preference).
This is a deal that everyone can buy. You put out something that only Verizon customer can. Same with the guy blasting about PerkAtWork. Can’t say a better deals when people can’t buy it
