I also have one, if someone is interested pm me. Edit: here's the code: dmfajodtd
Im located in Canada but don't really understand why I would need a 50$ discount for the candian HTC store since most M7 accessories (if not all) are out of stock and most phones are not sold from the HTC store but redirecting you to a Canadian carrier website (so the coupon doesn't apply). The only things you can buy with this is either an A9 or M9 at full price minus the 50$.... So 800$ CAD for a M9 2 weeks before the M10 launch.... and the coupon is only valid for 5 days....What a deal HTC ...
Sorry, didn't check what 50$ would actually buy. I already jumped to Sony z5, wanted to do that for a while..

Don't be sorry, its generous to give your coupon, just wanted to say that you can't actually buy anything interesting with this (from the canadian htc store) except a phone that will be much cheaper in 2 weeks. I guess this strategy is working fine with ppl that aren't really following news about upcoming phones... "Hey I'll give you 50$ off on that 850$CAD phone even if we know it will cost about 200$ less in 13 days because we are launching a new one and want to get rid of the overstock now. And you know what? We are still selling it full price even if you can find a brand new one on ebay for 500$CAD"....
Is this supposed to be a good deal HTC? :laugh:
@millicent btw just realized we are both from mtl, joined xda pretty much at the same time and both using a south park character as our avatar. :highfive:

Sorry i meant best buy. I normally buy my phones from best buy off contract because they give us the highest value for our phones. Currently the GS3 is worth 360$ plus 50 gift card sign up promotion they normally do in January plus an additional 50$ gift card for their trade in if you have their protection for a total of 460$ last i have them price match sprint which is 550$ meaning i only have to pay 90$ plus tax. anyone go this route? or simply upgrading?
My local best buy said 230 for s3 in new condition and 699.99 for the HTC and they will not price match for contract phones even tho I'm paying retail. How did you pull that deal?

Wait... what? If you're paying unsubsidized price for a phone, that's not considered a contract phone. You should show them their own policy.
(http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Payment...ee/pcmcat297300050000.c?id=pcmcat297300050000)
I don't think ANY phones via trade-in will surpass the amount that you can get for them selling them individually. Best Buy provides that as a service to customers -- not so people can make money off trading phones in. I would strongly suggest just selling the S3 and buying the phone from Best Buy with the money that you obtain from the sale.
I called a few and they all say they will not price match phones at all. My problem is none of my sprint stores or the main sprint tele sales store will even sell me one unless I add a new line. I've gone to 3 stores in person and they all said it will be a month or so before they will sell the phone at retail price.

You might try asking after the 19th as well, as I know I was told they can't price match during pre-order. But once it's released for sure, they might be able to.
Are you opposed to buying the phone online?

Thats not true. best buy is hurting because now they even price match amazon.com which they NEVER used to do. I dont know who you guys spoke to but its not true. i have receipts to show the last 2 years. i have had the EVO 4G, EVO 3D, Epic 4G touch black and white. EVO LTE, GS3 IN WHITE, THEN OPTIMUS G, GALAXY NOTE 2 THEN BACK TO THE GS3 IN PEBBLE BLUE. So trust me when i say its true. Call a store in atlanta and they will tell you the same. Im actually considering just using my upgrade and getting the additional 200$ on a gift card.

I'm not 100% sure but I remeber reading on the best buy price match policy that since they are now price matching online retailers one of the exclusions was mobile phones. Not sure if this was only for contract phones or all in general.

i would not suggest that as buying it out that early is quite expensive. if your within 2 months of your upgrade i believe its only 50$ and they add it to your bill no up front cost.

I'm not sure about price matching amazon's mobile phone but i know they will do sprints. what they will do is go on sprints website check the retail price and take it from there

now that i didnt know i used to have the white till i traded it for the optimus G. i think its because the blue is less common than the white. im the only one i know that has the blue. i know at least 15 people with gs3s maybe more and all of them have the white.
Yeah, I checked all the carriers s3's and they are all around 220-260. Only the Blue sprint model is that high

Check sites like borderlink or comgateway that allow you to shop in the US and then ship it to your real address. Many Europeans/Asians are using this method. Both are compatible with Amazon.com, I'm not sure for Best Buy or Google Play

It should release in EU soon. Play store in UK now has movies etc added. I also was able to order another chromecast today from bestbuy here in the US for deliver next week. Surprisingly I also got another netlfix code emailed to me. I'm planning on mailing this to my friend in Osaka. These are tough to purchase, even googlers can get them BUT you can beg people here! Perhaps not all are trying to profit.
Have this same problem in Australia. $100+ on eBay from American sellers. Hopefully Google will make it available here soon along with the new Nexus 7.

You can still get the 25% off price by calling your local best buy and order over the phone, ask them to match t-mobiles' price.
I just ordered and picked my galaxy gear for $280.73 with a 2 year geeksquad warranty.
Hope this helps.

My best buy still honored tmoble price match. Just got watch about an hour ago. Talked to manager straight off the bat and asked if they had watch. When he said yes I asked for price match and handed him tmoble price I printed off a few days ago. He said he's not suppose to but doesn't really care and he gave me the price. Got it for 209 plus tax.

I would buy direct from Sony. There is a part in the terms and conditions that say if you do not buy it from a authorised Sony reseller, then the warranty may not be valid.
I bought mine off ebay. Its now been 5 weeks and its still not back. I'd never do that again!
If you're a student or college faculty member, you can buy from Sony for 10% off (I think). So it'll be around $585
EDIT: only on the Sony USA store...

I don't see where they ship to US. Only gives Canadian Provinces I wanted a rose gold for my gf. See their white only comes in silver.
Just ordered 2 Ivory and 2 Orange. Now I'm researching how to make them work with out Samsung device. I figure with the new S5 coming shortly these will be a good addition.
what if I tell you that I got mine for... 9€ ? :victory:

I just got off the phone with bell Customer Service and was told that they had so many orders that the system went into Back Order mode!
They can'f fulfill all the orders they took and are now contacting Samsung to see if they can get more to satisfy the existing orders.
I expect Bell will be cancelling many orders very soon.
I got it
I am in Nebraska and I got one of my local Best Buy to price match. I think the said ok because I got the orange one ( Broncos fan). I also knew the sales rep because he helped me in the past with a lot of stuff.
Now on sale at Future Shop for 100.
I picked one up today. I'll cancel the Bell order tomorrow.
