Strangely, since they are the only ones selling the 32GB WIFI model apparently, that tablet is on sale this week for the same price as the 16GB. It had been selling at $549 and it is this week $499.
There were three other folks in line for customer service when BB opened yesterday to do the exact same exchange.
So....I returned my 16GB and exchange for the 32. I told them I would take the same $50 price reduction they were offering on the 32 but they said they weren't able to do that. Makes no sense since they will now sell mine as an open box unit at a $50 discount.
Wonder if they guarantee the price for a couple of weeks...just bought 2 32gb at 549.00 each...

If you bought it last week, yes. If it's more than 1 week, no.

Well turns out since I have the Rewards Card and have myself enrolled I could have waited up to 30 days if the sale price held that long. But the 1st unit was purchased 8/22 and its beyond 2 weeks by a couple days and they refunded 50 on each for me! So I bought a Logitech S keyboard.
I had Best Buy sale me a 32GB last Sunday at the $499 deal! I only paid $118 since I had some $100 gift cards I needed to cash in.
The 16GB model has been priced down to $449.99 in a lot of places as well.

I took advantage of their offer they had for $50 gift card for any working tablet and got rid of a ton of them and some other electronic stuff and had enough to pay for my 32gig wifi tablet with ZERO out of pocket money (actually had some left over).. got a new tablet and got rid of some clutter in my house. .. a win win situation

Refurbs often are great deals....much depends on warranty. I see that the seller has raised the price from $399. At what they're asking for now one might as well buy new. Not really a "deal" anymore IMHO.
Staples presently has the Tab S 10.5 for $499. Get them to price match Best Buy at $399 (print copy from web). Then use the $100 off coupon in the flyer :http://weeklyad.staples.com/StaplesSD/WeeklyAd?storeid=2278485#!/ Have to do this in store. Was not able to get same deal online.
Was on the fence regarding this vs. the 32 GB version exclusive to BB. However at this price it is well worth it. FYI, they only have the Bronze versions in the store (at least in my area).
yeah i was on the fence too but that price is amazing. i will invest in a nice big SD card

I got it at that price +5 % rewards cash back, the manager gave me the Bronze one then I returned the white one to Walmart @ $379.00 previous price match but this deal is even better $299-15.00 =284.00 also I just pick up an other Chromecast for $25.00 on sale at the same store
Thank you
Wow did you have to pay tax on $499 or $299
Thank you op for the heads up. I just bought the tab s yesterday from best buy. I'm going there after work with the info and if they're unwilling to match it then I'll return it and get it at staples.

Tax was on the $299
I got it too for $299 and I have a free $100 gc making it $218 with tax. The override need miracle. YMMV on this! You might have to try different stores. Keep your cool and you might get it.
Best buy refused to price match Staples because the staples deal used a $100 off coupon and coupons are specifically excluded from best buy price match policy. I was however successful in getting the $299 deal at staples!
Went to best buy and ended up returning the tab and driving 5 minutes to the nearest staples and after a short discussion with the manager they allowed me to buy it for $299.99. Being in new Hampshire meant no sales tax. Again ...thanks to the op for posting the info.

I tried this yesterday and got denied. Then I bought a refurb for 335 free shipping and no tax. I'm pretty mad. I guess it's not that bad though as long as the one I get is nice.

The nearest Staples is 67 miles from Panama City. They don't stock the 10", and they are out of stock on the 8". Wow, such a deal! :crying:
32 GB is now on sale at Best Buy for 449. I just went and got my $100 back since I paid full price earlier this month.
I gave staples a shot. No can do. Oh well. I guess I'm not the charmer that you guys are lol.
I got the 32gb version on eBay for $410.00 after using a promo coupon lol. Got really lucky!

After thinking about it...That price may likely be the suggested retail price since its for the contest. Carriers may price differently. If I remember correctly the S5 was $669 though at tmobile, so $699 could be it.
My state tax is 6.75%
So edge possibly
$799, 32Gb = $853
$899, 64Gb = $960
$999, 128Gb = $1066[emoji15]
With many people (me included) thinking they at least needed the 64Gb. Whoa! I hope the wireless charger is included, since that might run 40-50 bucks for that Samsung one which I would prefer.

i have the Verizon Note 4 with the locked bootloader and its been buggy (wasnt aware i had to buy directly from samsung if i wanted it unlocked). i bough the nexus 6 to dump the note and get into roms for the first time but find myself using the note still.
so yeah im looking foward to a new samsung devices, thats less buggy and laggy. + id like a smaller device. and i could always get a pen for the s6 (less percise sadly)
im looking for 2 things to happen tho
1) verizon need to either have the bootloader unlocked/a devlopers edition/ or an exploit so i cant root the s6; a) so i can root/get titanium backup b) so i can get ride of any bloat
2) color choices. i dont want black/white/gold which is what verizon usually has for samsung devices. either the blue S6 or Green Edge

I was leaning edge, but now I think for the extra hundred or so I would get s6 in larger size like 128. In the long run not sure if the edge will be worth the higher price tag for less storage space!

Seeing them and playing with in person will probably help with that a little. If the price increases line up with the euro sites prices, we could be looking at $150 jump to get the edge in the same storage size. That would definitely make my mind up to go with regular s6.

Hello! will the Verizon 128GB Gold Galaxy S6 Edge be available for pre order tomorrow?
How exciting that your interested in getting a new phone! I'd be more than happy to assist you with any questions about the preorder for the Samsung S6 edge. Let me check that for you.
May I please take a 2-3 minutes to look into this for you? I appreciate your patience.
While you wait, any accessories you want me to look up for you?
Thank you so much for waiting. I did check for you. The Samsung S6 Edge 128GB will be available tomorrow for preorder.
will there be official Samsung accessories available tomorrow?
Yes, accessories will be available for preorder tomorrow as well.
i guess i'm just trying to clarify. The Verzion 128gb Gold/Platinum version of the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge will be available for pre order tomorrow. Correct?
Yes, it will be available.
I haven’t received a response from you. Do you still need assistance?
fantastic! Do you by chance have the price options? Off contract and 2 year. Thank you verymuch for your help
With 2 year contract it will be $499.99.
Without contract it will be $1049.99.
That off contract price scares me...

Best Buy always charges more for off-contract devices compared to carriers. Verizon will have the same $499 contract price, but off-contract they'll have the 128GB S6E for $899.

I hope so, or soon, because I need to switch my preorder from black to gold before launch. I tweeted BB Mobile today and they didn't have a date for Sprint gold variant.
I went on the Verizon website to check if gold was available, and it is. But.... when you place the order, it shows a shipping date of May 1st.... sigh...
I might just preorder this one. First time I've ever preordered. Now I just have to decide between black and gold.
Last phone I ever preordered was the HTC Incredible and it arrived a week early. Hoping for the same blunder in the warehouse lol.
Ended up ordering from Verizon for $150 less than Best Buy.

I actually posted a bunch online saying I'd use this as an excuse to jump ship if Verizon decided to screw with me one more time by not offering the gold version. I still want it, but I'm pretty peeved that it's coming in May, since that timing is so iffy I might as well wait for the Note 5. I'm still debating, though I'm leaning heavily towards buying it.
've been struggling with whether to go White or Gold. I think I decided on White, but I do wonder about the 32GB vs 64GB vs 128GB. So my mentality is this, I definitely don't want to do 32GB so it's 64GB vs 128GB.
Is 128GB better? YES, of course. But I have a 64GB card and I think with one of those nifty Meenova devices (USB OTG to micro sd adapter), I could easily add any amount of data to the phone on the go.
Anyone else have a big reason for going 128GB? Because the price is insane at that level.

It depends on how much you plan on storing into your phone. I have my entire music catalog on my SD Card so i went with the 128GB. I also have a young daughter and i use my phone as my main camera so i wanted the extra memory. If you use streaming sites for music or store your pic/vids on a cloud based service you really do not need anything more than a 64GB. Just my opinion.

Those are valid points. I backup to the cloud but have about 10GB of pictures and video on my phone. I do stream my music mostly. So I think really I should be good. If I want to have movies or other things I could prob do the 64gb card via the dash micro adapter. But then Verizon gives $100 off so I feel like I could get 128GB for 64gb price. Lol
Does anyone one know of a safe place to buy the N920I (international variant) ? I am in the USA and want to use this on At&t.
Thanks for any help!
I bought mine on Amazon.com
It's coming from overseas but they have ways of resolving problems and refunding $
I bought mine from Amazon as well...
Just made the purchase today, the Gold model was just too beautiful to resist.
It was almost impossible for me to find the 64 GB version, so I had to settle for the 32 GB.
Not a big deal for me personally, most of the stuff I do now a days is almost always backed up to the cloud.
I've seen them for sale on various sites, eBay, Swappa, expansys-usa, amazon and more...
Prices vary from reasonable to ridiculous, so be mindful of that as well.
I ended up paying $750 with free one day Amazon Prime shipping included.
There are a few on ebay. I ordered mine from Taiwan, shipping was incredibly fast. It got here in 3 days through DHL. Gold color with 64GB
Only $715 64GB

Right before I purchased from Amazon, I did one last run across multiple websites. At the time they didn't have the N920i version in gold/64 GB combo.
So I went ahead with the 32 GB.
For me, it's not a huge deal breaker. I switch phones often. My last 4-5 phones have been 64 GB & 128 GB and I barely fill them up all the way.
So I'm okay with my decision now.
I'll eventually sell this in a few months and purchase something newer.

I also noticed this as well, but its not Gold color. Which is what I want. Not a fan of the "black" model. Mainly cause its blue. Lol.
It's still a beautiful phone, I just fell in love with the gold and silver models when I first saw them and swore I would buy one in gold or silver.
That is a really good deal for $590.
