If you are planning to buy a ATT phones, wait till Friday all the phones will be at 50% discount including the TILT.
was announced on the RADIO.
More info anyone???
Can anyone provide more info (certain markets, or nationwide?)... or confirm this?
ATT 50% off Blackfriday
This sale is pretty much limited to CA, NV, ID, AZ, NM, UT, HI, OR, WA, CO. You get 50% off on almost any phone (no Iphone or Go Phones included). You however have to be eligible for an upgrade or new line of service. It seems to be a pretty good deal if you are looking to get the tilt or blackberry.
you can check it out here

i believe at&t has a 30 day price match offer that includes them dropping their own prices, so you should be able to get the difference refunded if your in one of those states.

I await your findings. I live in AZ and I just bought my Tilt like 3 weeks ago so I fall in the 30 days like you
Before I bought mine I asked them if by some chance the Tilt went on sale for cheaper than I got it for (399.99) would they price match. They assured me that it would not go on sale so I insisted the "what if". They agreed that if it did go on sale by some weird chance (like black friday weekend) then they would do a price match.
Still I'm curious what you find out.
Thanks!
TILT price match
Hi Guys!
I got ordered my tilt on 8th and got it on 12th. I think i will be eligible for Price match. I got it on a forced upgrade for 592 USD with tax. Hope i can save some money on it.
Please post your opinions and findings..
.... Raj
I live in St. Louis, MO area, although i'm not on one of those states listed, i bought my phone about 2 weeks ago from an At&t store, not a an authorized dealer and actually store by at&t and that was the first thing i asked my rep was what if the price in it drops the day after Thanksgiving will they offer me that, and she said yes, they have a 30 day price match, also i told them about the amazon.com offer of 200bux plus a 25.00 rebate for a total of 175 for the phone w/a 2 year contract, and they did a pretty close offer of 250.00 and i dont have to pay the 36.00 activation fee, so basically i paid 214 2 weeks ago for it, sure the amazon deal is cheaper, but the in person service is something i dont mind paying a little more for incase there's a mess up w/something i can go back to the store, which is only 5 minutes from me and talk to someone in person and get everything right.
So I just got back from the AT&T store and they gave me an additional $150 credit to my bill since I puchased the phone less than 30 days ago!
Anyone that has purchased their AT&T Tilt less than 30 days ago needs to contact their original point of puchase today and tomorrow only and they will recieve a 50% credit to thier purchase!
SCORE!
Wonder how that works if you bought it from the AT&T web site...
Call customer service. They might have to do a return repurchase maneuver.
Thats what the AT&T rep told me when I called in before visiting my local store where I originally purchased the unit.
What if you bought it from a retailer like CompUSA or from a website like Newegg? Will they still offer you a discount on it or do the retailers have to do that?
I spoke to an ATT rep who told me that if I go into any ATT owned store I can redeem the credit. I hope that's true because I bought the phone on my parent's side of town - hours away.
150$ Refund!!!
I called att sales today and they refunded my credit card 150$ however I didnt qualify for the 100$ mail in refund though.

what did you say to them?!
I went down to the ATT store I bought mine from and I didn't qualify for the 50% off because-
a) I didn't have the data plan added on my phone (39.99 $/month)
I would have qualified if I just added the data plan on for that month BUT it would have screwed up my super mega ultra ridiculously low plan that already has unlimited internet access.
Was anyone able to pull off the half off without having the pda connect plan that is 39.99? If so, can you PM me the phone number of the ATT store so I can call them and see if they will credit me?
Okay...I've been drooling over this phone for the past few weeks. I'm almost ready to pull the trigger...but I'm looking for the least expensive but most reputable online dealer to make my purchase. I'm in the USA so it would have to be imported.
Suggestions? Experiences? Warranty issues? I'm all ears. Let me know what your experience has been with the different online retailers.
Cheers!

Good Point! eBay is probably the one place I haven't looked! Thanks man!
Amazon has a few sellers offering them for around 650. they're also fulfillment so you get free 2 day shipping.
I'm also getting ready to pull the trigger.
If you're just looking for a cheap price, eBay has Australian Notes on sale, which I think is the cheapest of them all due to currency fluctuations.
Anybody know of a seller that does international shipping that has a REALLY lenient return policy? I tend to have horrible luck with displays and don't want to get stuck with one with defects (I once had to return five LCD monitors in a row because each one had more than two dead/stuck pixels! Also, my current Cellphone, a Streak, has an always-on stuck red pixel).
Given the fact that AMOLED screens slowly develop defects, I would really like to find a seller that offers 14+ day return policy with little or no expense on my part, in case I end up making multiple returns.
I found this in another thread but Integrontech has them for $650 also. Here's the link: http://www.integrontech.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-N7000-16GB-Unlocked-Black-p/sam-n7000.htm
I've never used them...so I'm not sure how reputable they are.
I did buy my i9100 from expansys USA and it was perfect! Fast shipping. Never had any trouble with the hardware...so I never dealt with the warranty part. But my experience with them was very good.
Might pay to be a little more patient, I'm thinkin' there will be at least another 50 drop post Christmas.
Just a thought and I could be wrong so...
Be nice to use that extra savings towards accessories though IMHO
When I first started lookin' I couldn't find one below 730.00 so if I can get one for six I can that custom leather case I want and break even there.

Hello! Link please
I've got friends who would buy this for me in either India or Australia.
Where would I have either one of them shop in their respective countries to get me one? Is it worth it, plus shipping, or should I just drop $650 on Ebay? I mean, from what I saw the exchange rate, 35,000 Indian Rupees (MSRP) is $660.

I see amazon is listed as an official vendor which makes me curious.
+ there is no warranty on international phones imported to U.S. because the official U.S. versions are the ones sold by the damn carriers via at&t , verizon etc.

Yeah, I saw that, but the arrival date was in 2012.
Newegg had free 2-day shipping (shoprunner free year trial) and I had a $20 coupon from google.
So, $679 and I'll have it Monday. Plus there is a free charger thingy thrown in, so that's a plus.
I just really hope my unlimited data isn't f-d around with after putting my sim in...

Doesn't the GT prefix indicate the IMEI will be considered a tablet? Some listings omit the GT prefix...I think these are the Polish/Netherland version that doesn't flag ATT as a tablet...
Hmmm...it appears the white one is going for $800 still, while the black(ish) one is $650ish. I'm debating on importing 5 or 6 of these to see if I can pay for mine.
Thoughts?

This is just my experience, this is very YMMV (your mileage may vary) and depends on the rep you get and how you treat them/what you say.
I was upset that amazon was taking 2-3 weeks to get me my phone. I called sprint telesales and played dumb. I asked the cost and of course it was 249.99. I told them that I have seen phones priced at 199.99 and it seemed to me like i was paying for the 149.99 discount which was "unfair and disappointing* as many of us were complaining about. Played the loyal customer card, She talked to supervisor and they over rided the price. Had to endure listening to those terms and now the phone should be here in 3-4 days instead of weeks. With my triple a discount, it comes to 199,99 + 12 shipping + tax, around 220. However no activation fee (thanks to triple a). If your ordering through a third party and not happy, i would suggest trying this out.
If it doesn't work, try again. You can call in and say you got cut off but they were in the process of applying the $50 discount and you didn't get the customer service number for your ticket. You could try for even more off but odds are it won't work.
Good Luck!
I got mine at 199.99 at Sprint Stores, told them if they dont give me the phone for the promo of 150.00 i will go to another company, they told me that they could offer me for 199.99. So i got it
Just got off the phone. Asked politely and they agreed! Got it for $199 + tax + $12 shipping.
Hoping to get it soon!

What number do you use to get to telesales? I'm getting a bit pessimistic about my Costco preorder shipping friday. If I order tonight from telesales, it should ship tomorrow and there's a good chance I have it Friday or Saturday.
Also, what's this triple account you mention in order to get the activation waived?
Thanks!
Got mine at the store for $199. The rep wanted to sell accessories so bad that he dropped the price of the phone to buy a spare Battery and charger for my wife's note 2.

I'm currently on AT&T and would like to get a T-Mobile Note 4 and unlock it to be used on my AT&T plan. T-Mobile wants $420 down for the device (based on my credit check (thanks ex-wife)), but the device outright can be purchased for $600-700 online. Is there any other alternative to getting the device without paying so much up front?

Oh, used? I guess that makes sense then.
From another thread in q&a:
I bought the phone. It was a bit of a process but easy. You have to have a service plan for them to sell you one. So I signed up for the phone and the cheapest plan they would get me. Then went home and called Tmobile customer care and paid the balance of the phone off. Then went to cellunlocker and got an unlock code. Then for the next day or so I used it on AT&T to make sure it had no problems. Then I called up Tmobile and canceled my plan.

Yes, but they want me to put $420 down just to start a plan with them...if I'm going to pay that much down, I might as well just buy the phone outright. I was just seeing if there was an alternative.

I put mine up on Craig's list for 800.00 and it sold in a few hours. The full price of the phone on AT&T without a 2 year contract is $825.00. As long at you sell it for less than that it sells pretty quick. Don't know where you got the market value is 600.00 if you are selling it for 600.00 you are getting ripped off. They go for way more than that. Even on ebay most of the auctions are finishing in the $750 range.
Put mine on craigslist 3 days after it came out in Washington DC area. Took 3 days to get a reasonable offer- $760. Sold for that amount. My brother listed his on craigslist three weeks later at $650, didn't get any bites for a few days and finally had to settle for $600 (this was one week ago). I'm not sure where YOU live, but the market price for the AT&T version of the Note 4 is certainly around $600. Look at Swappa: five phones listed for under $630. You know how much they make after the $10 fee and shipping? $600. Do not advise people that they can get even close to retail asking price for the AT&T version. Maybe the T-Mobile version... that price is holding steady around $680-$690.
Yeah, there are a couple T-Mobile Note 4s on Craigslist around here for like $550-650.

Well that sticks for you I guess. There are plenty selling for $750 on eBay and Craig's list. Swappa always has **** for prices for a seller. Look them up on eBay. And there are tons up for sale in my cities on Craig's list for $750. Just had a friend sell his yesterday for $780 he didn't even bring it home from the store, found an offer before he made it home.
Sorry you can find any one to buy it for more than $600 but that send like a you problem, not the going rate for the phone.

Ok, sell on eBay for $700 (if you're lucky, still seeing recent sold ones for ~$650) fee break down: $70 to eBay, $20 to PayPal, $10 Shipping. Net $600. I don't know why you're arguing this... any way you sell the phone you're going to be getting ~$600 for the phone, give or take $25.
Yesterday's average selling price on eBay of new or like new AT&T Note 4s was $657.08 with a standard deviation of $53.32. The median was $664.43. So If you're that middle guy, selling for $660. You'd be getting $660 - $66 ebay fee - $19.44 paypal fee - ~$10 shipping fee. You're looking at $564.56. Even at the top end, you're looking at $608.46
OK, so Rent-A-Center has them for $29 on black Friday and you have 90 days to pay it in full. So...having it paid in full in 3 months is a cool deal.
Now...has anyone got one from Rent-A-Center and will it work on AT&T and use it as a T-Mobile device as far as rooting, flashing, etc.?

Full price on the rac version was 890 +tax locally.

That's not exactly true... I've received $200 in TMO credit, $100 in Visa gift cards, three new phones, due to all the crediting, and four years of Netflix. Not to mention a 128GB device when I originally bought a 64GB one. You just need to be polite and they'll do anything for you. If one representative says no, hang up and call again.
Yes, I did adopt early. Preordered and had it delivered the very next day, on Friday.
I did not get netflix it was online only. I chose to get it at a store and no I did not get $100 Visa card or and upgrade to 128gb. Because I got mine full price the wee it came out. I even tried the $50 rebate for memorial day and was declined. I personally did not get one single promotional offer.

You should have tried the Netflix promo because it worked for any s6 within a time frame. They said it was only for pre-orders but it worked for both my phones I bought in store.

Samsungs had a website that you gave your imei and mac adress to verify your had a activated s6. After verification they emailed a Netflix code that put over a hundred dollar credit to your account.

Well to be fair it was supposed to be only for pre-orders and they got a insert with the promo info. It just happened to work with non pre-ordered phones. I think it was worded like the first 50,000 pre orders get the Netflix promo.

I bought my S6 on release day in a T-Mobile store. I got the Netflix deal with no problem. My wife upgraded from the Note 4 to the S6 Edge about 2 weeks before the price drop ? I called and they took $100 from the overall EIP. I'm cool with that!

i was rejected for the $50 memorial day gift as it wasnt in their time frame for purchase on top of that people who got the phone a month later got the 64gb s6 for the price of 32 gb
so overall we were fools to get this phone on the first week
i wrote a letter to the customer relations @ Tmobile and they responded in a week saying the do understand the situation but cannot change the terms in the promotion , however they still went ahead and gave me a $50 credit on my bill

so overall we were fools to get this phone on the first week
i wrote a letter to the customer relations @ Tmobile and they responded in a week saying the do understand the situation but cannot change the terms in the promotion , however they still went ahead and gave me a $50 credit on my bill

Some of you might have been fools for buying within the first week but I can tell you right now I was not. I knew I was not going to get the best price and miss out on alot of deals by buying the first week, I just wanted the phone and didn't want to wait.

Yeah but for all of us who bought it the first week and paid way more than we should have. We all get shafted. Nothing. No appreciation. A big fat one for us. Thanks T mobile.

Are you really upset because you paid top dollar and bought it the very week it came out? Are you new to buying -anything-? That's how EVERYTHING works. when something new and shiny comes out it's expensive as crap, after the initial few weeks it slowly starts dropping in price until its outdated and massively cheap or not even on the market anymore. How is someone having to explain this to you?

That's not exactly true... I've received $200 in TMO credit, $100 in Visa gift cards, three new phones, due to all the crediting, and four years of Netflix. Not to mention a 128GB device when I originally bought a 64GB one. You just need to be polite and they'll do anything for you. If one representative says no, hang up and call again.
Yes, I did adopt early. Preordered and had it delivered the very next day, on Friday.

I would -LOVE- for you to break down how all this occurred in a step by step format so others could benefit from your way of handling their customer service in the future if you'd be so kind please. Due to various issues with Tmobile screwing me over and me finally figuring it out (related to their "warranty" that doesnt warranty -anything-) and ongoing issues within my account, I was given a MASSIVE discount on the S6, 2 free phones and 200 dollars credit, but again that was mostly due to me realizing theyve been screwing me over for a -long- while, then not giving in until they evened the score properly. (Also got the netflix promo, but that was unrelated to their compensation)

The netflix promotion was available for any and all S6/Edges during the promo timeframe, I got mine in-store the day it came out and was able to use the online promo for netflix without issue

I'm all for trying to get freebies and do it myself regularly, but if you are -honestly- upset that you got "screwed" over because you didn't get a cheaper price or special goodies on an initial release purchase, you're just being silly. that's how EVERYTHING works. the early adopters get the highest price and often buggy product in return for being "The first of the first". how does anyone not get that? It happens with quite literally everything, with technology being a leader in example.
