Tablet Insurance - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General

Hello all, I am looking into getting insurance for my note. I have never had tablet insurance, and was wondering if anyone has any recommendations, or would like to share their experiences.
Thanks!

I am happy with square trade. Just got a refund from my nexus 10 policy after dropping it and cracking the screen. Went and bought a note pro yesterday to replace it

Awesome! I have heard good things about square trade. How do you like the pro?

The note 10 and the pro are both incredible tablets. I still have both right now, lol. Picked up the note 10 first assuming the 12 would be too big for me, but the 12 looked so darn cool in the store... I went back yesterday and picked one up so I could try it before deciding which one to go with. The 12 does take a little adjusting to, but I love it. It isn't too heavy, using the pen with it is a blast, and once that logitech keyboard comes out for it, it will be a great little laptop replacement. I think the 10 is going be the one that goes back.

Shop around for SquareTrade as places like amazon, New egg, Tiger direct and Square trade directly all have different prices for the same thing.
Best Buy and Walmart even have protection plans.
Here is a coupon code xv781j for 35% off at SquarTrade directly up to a max. discount of $35.00.

Scope out Costco for their SquareTrade policies. I just bought one for my Note 10.1 2014 for $49.99. (It's good for cameras and tablets from $300-750 ... and you do NOT have to have purchased your device from Costco.). It's the best price I've found for a 2 year all-inclusive policy. Just my 2¢

That is a great deal but..........
I just got this from there web site.
This service plan is exclusive to Costco Members. You must purchase the new tablet or camera from a Costco Warehouse or from www.costco.com. Other terms and conditions apply.*
How the SquareTrade Service Works
Service plan must be purchased within 30 days of purchasing the tablet or camera in-store. If the tablet or camera is purchased online at Costco.com, then the service plan must be purchased within 30 days from receipt of tablet or camera.

I just got a 30% off coupon for a squaretrade warranty if anyone is interested. I bought my Note from Amazon so it was cheaper to just buy the squaretrade warranty straight from amazon.

I have several ST 30% off codes if needed... Just PM me and i'll hook you up.

I got my ST warranty a couple of weeks ago. I spent HOURS looking on line and trying a zillion codes that were posted. Each one said "this code has already been used". Amazon....YOU MUST BUY YOUR DEVICE FROM THEM FOR THE ST WARRANTY TO BE VALID. I have it first hand from Amazon and ST. Finally I called ST and said "listen, I've spent hours looking for a code that works. Is there anyway you would consider offering me a code?" "Sure, no problem". So after a few minutes he came back with a 30% code he generated for me. Just call them and ask for one

Extended Warranties?

So I was looking into possibly getting an extended warranty for my nexus 7. I purchased it from Sam's club, which offers 2 additional years for $20 (anyone ever bought this before, how is it?).
I was also considering a square trade warranty. They are $23, and for an extra 26 you can add accident coverage. Anyone ever bought through them before? Plus i got a 30% off coupon today.
Also when it says 2 years is that from today, or is it like Sam's club that extends the warranty 2 years making it 3 total.
Thanks for your input.

for square trade i think they start the coverage today also im going to be getting it from square trade since play store doesn't offer option to extra warranty
with the 30% off code I can get a 2 year (starting from today) Accidental coverage from SquareTrade. Sounds like a good deal to me...two years from now i'll definitely want something new

I dont, they are all one use per coupon. But check this thread on slickdeals as a bunch of people are posting ones they received to use http://slickdeals.net/f/4891980-Squaretrade-30-off-check-your-email
Definitely Square Trade Warranty. The B&M ones are ridiculous. Office Depot said their's was $79.99. That's 1/3 of the Nexus 7!!!?!??!?
Just got one with Accidental Damage for $34.99 with the 30% off coupon. No need for a case anymore. Just guna use and abuse my Nexus 7.
30% off coupon code came out again today from Square trade.

$259 on Ebay

Newegg is selling black or white for $259 on ebay
I just got ordered one directly from newegg site the other day for $279. I never dealt with newegg before. Do you think they would adjust the price on my original order to $259?
If I return the $279 back, does newegg pick up the return shipping or do I?
Not going to lose sleep over the $20, but if pretty simple process and minimal hassle, $20 is twenty bucks

I picked this bad boy up through this deal
I asked them in chat if they would price match it from ebay since newegg is selling it on ebay, but they said they would not do it. So i just ordered it off ebay and got a 2 year sqauretrade warranty. I can't wait to get this thing!

I couldn't get a price match or credit for my order, so I went the ebay route too. I'm thrilled -- I would have bought it at $299, and surprisingly I find it for just $259. Now I just have to wait. Thursday's the big day!

I have been waiting patiently, but then decided today to purchase of eBay for $259, I was going to wait next week so I price match Best buy, but I don't think they will match it nor stay at $259. Or $279 on NewEgg. Hopefully it s a perfect device. thursday.
Same Route
I took the Ebay route too - at 5 am this morning! No other source will approach this price for some time.
Are we getting Newegg's discards? I don't think so, sealed box is sealed box, and the units are advertised as "New" and nothing less.
Let's swap notes when we get our packages.

Talked to Newegg support chat this afternoon giving them my order number from yesterday's order and after some discussion got a $20 gift certificate on the way via email. Better than nothing and still got the $279 deal. Mine is on the way delivery scheduled for Tuesday. Good luck anyone else with the price matching.
Is anyone worries that there are no returns accepted?
I've got a refurbed N7 on the way right now, but for this price I would return it and get the GPad. The no returns is giving me some hesitation though...

If it's broken they have to accept a return. Per ebays terms. So I wouldn't worry.

You're reading something into the ebay buyer protection program that isn't there. If the item is "not as described" or you didnt received it then it would be covered. Receiving an item with a manufacturing defect is not specified addressed in the terms of the sale and assuming you could utilize the BPP in such a manner would be foolish.
So Newegg doesn't want anything to do with a "I don't like it after all" return, but a new item is covered by manufacturer warranty anyway right?
So it would be more of a pain to deal with manufacturer instead of retailer, but either way you wouldn't be stuck with a lemon right?

Let me share a story that may ease some fears. I dropped my HTC DNA and smashed the screen. Screen repairs are expensive, so I made the mistake of going with the cheapest vendor -- Mission Repair. Not only did they do a shoddy job, gluing the speaker back askew and leaving the red stripes on the side loose, but it was returned with the wifi malfunctioning.
I paid with PayPal (owned by ebay, of course), so I followed their procedures and opened a dispute, where I told my side of the story. Mission Repair actually responded that I should return the unit to them so that they could determine whether there was anything wrong with my phone! Of course this was unacceptable to me, so I escalated the case to a claim, which would force PayPal to intervene. I summed up my story and MR was given 10 or 14 days to respond.
I guess they realized that they had no ground to stand on, because AFAIK PayPal never heard back from them. Right after MR's response period expired, PayPal refunded me the cost of the repair. Well, in the meantime, the problem with my wifi cleared up. I wasn't about to say anything, though, because I felt I deserved at least a response from MR. If the wifi had still been broken, I would have pushed for more than the repair cost.
So, the point of the story is that PayPal and ebay seem serious about resolving disputes. I don't know about ebay buyer protection, but it's easy to get PayPal to arbitrate a claim. If this doesn't put many minds at ease, just look at NewEgg's 99.5% positive rating on ebay.

$579 is not really much of a price break,, especially for Costco where items tend to be significantly cheaper than their competitors. I was hoping to see at least a $50 discount (10%).
Oh well.

I agree. I read somewhere here that at one point it was $50 dollar savings. But still having it available at Costco is still a win for us because of there fantastic 90 day return policy no questions asked.

Just bought a brand new white Note 10.1 2014 Edition 16GB on eBay for $519 and no tax. The seller has over 10,000 transactions with 99.9% positive feedback. Added a SquareTrade 2yr Accidental Damage warranty for $99 and I'm set. I preferred the black model, but it's going to be in a case. So the color was not a deal breaker by any means.
Now, I need a decent case and a 64GB micro SD card.
I picked one up at costco on the 6th. I wouldn't really call this a bundle. The pouch is pretty mediocre, the price is just okay, but the return policy is awesome and I didn't have to wait for it or go to best buy.
If anyone else bought this puppy at costco, can you explain how the pouch converts to a stand? I can't figure it out. The best I've been able to do is make a bump out of it and I don't think I would ever try to rest the tab on it; it would most likely just slip off of it. I pretty much just use it as a sort of placemat under it when I put it down. It's not even good as a pouch.
The note itself is pretty cool, though and I don't really mind not getting much of a price break. Sammy still hasn't sent me the code for the perks though. That kind of ticks me off. The serial number and the mac address don't match and it's taking them forever to deal with it. If they don't get their act together pretty soon I might just bring it back and wait for them to go on sale. It would be a shame though, this one has no issues that I've noticed yet. No screen bleed, build quality is excellent. Battery life could be better and there is a little lag but I can live with that. Oh well.

Well you have 90 days from when you purchased it at Costco so I'm sure something will happen by then. I too have yet to receive the code. I even had it escalated through live chat 3 days ago and was told that I should be receiving the code through email today. Nothing yet so far so I'm sure I'll be talking to Live Chat once again. Regarding the Pouch as a stand? My mistake it doesn't stand the tablet up at all. It's more of a way to set it down on an angle for typing maybe? But I agree not much of a bundle but we did save some money for a 32GB model. I purchased a Poetic slim case for $9.99 @ Amazon with Prime shipping. It looks great and now well protected. Very happy I bought this tablet.

Keep checking. I'm sure it will come that way. Costcos here carry them (Washington State).
Update: Finally received my Code perks! It took about two weeks but finally here. I now just registered my second Note 10.1 2014 unit for perks as well. Unfortunately I also had to speak with live chat agent regarding errors during registration. I was told I should be receiving my perks within two days.... more like 2 weeks. At least now I know it will be coming.

Still nothing at my local Costcos which are only pushing the Note 8 and Tab 3.
Personally, I bought brand new 16gb version on eBay from a reputable seller located in New York on December 13th and had it in my hands in Southern CA on the 23rd (even with the UPS delays). For potential buyers, you may want to consider this option, though only buy from a reputable seller.
I bought mine from Costco in early Dec for $579. It is interesting though, the store I went to had a whole stack of them, but no other Costcos in the Detroit area had any. When you check for them you may want to have them search all the Costcos in the area.

Just at my local Costco today and noticed that they lowered the price from $579 to $529. If you purchased yours within 30 days of this change in press you can get back the difference or just simply return it and get another one since you have 90 days return policy.

Costco refund
I paid 579 for mine. I saw they now had it for 529. I went in and got 50 refund. I think this refund time is for 90 days. Just offer to either return it or get the difference and they will always give you the difference.
We have 3 Costco's here and only one has ever had the Note 2014. The other two never have it. They have it online, but the price is higher.
The pouch is pretty worthless. If it can be a stand, I have on idea how that would work.

Yes as a stand I agree it's worthless, it's more like a way to have an angle when you rest it on a flat surface for typing maybe? I was told from an employee if you purchased before the price change, you have 30 days from the start of the reduced price to refund you the difference. Your safety night of course is the 90 day return policy.

Is Newegg good ?

Was waiting for a deal on this tablet and it seems new egg has it on sale.I was waiting for a good deal. How good is new egg for good products ? Was hearing some pretty scary stuff about them such as used devices being sold as new and such. What has you guys experience been like using them. Should I jump the gun and go ahead ?

I purchased mine from them a week ago.
Mine came in an open box, but from what i have read, this happens in all stores.
New Egg is definitively not Amazon, i had lots of problems ordering mine, and customer service could not provide a simple answer. Having said that, they currently have the white version for $279, and you could see if their Masterpass offer (20% off) is still active for even more savings.

Yes. You have to go in store and have one of the workers look online and see that its indeed cheaper. Sometimes you can show them on your phone but most often they look it up themselves. Sometimes they try to say its not the same item but obviously there's only one model of the gpad. Only difference is white and black. Also they think all tablets are white due to the box only showing the white version. So you need to educate them that they need to read the sticker to see if it's black or white.

Honestly it all depends on the store. They will probably just price match the 299 price. The good thing about best buy is if you have any issues you can exchange easily. I had to exchange mine that had a dust particle under the screen.

Two days ago I had best buy match the $329 Newegg price. I am going to factory reset and return this tomorrow, then order from Newegg for $279.
Best buy will not post purchase price match with anyone other than themselves. They also won't match the coupon deal part.
While best buy has improved recently in response to online retailers putting pressure on then; they still will loose business this time with the restrictions of their policy.
It will be a pain to do this but worth $50.
I bought my LG G Pad 8.3 from Newegg when it was on sale for $250, tablet came just fine and works like a charm, no issues, have dealt with Newegg in the past and never had any issues.
I purchased mine yesterday using the 20 $ off total was about 299$. LOL I live in New Jersey so I had to pay $20 tax. Will let you guys know how it goes.

Newegg is usually fine, though they do like to re-sell returned items from time to time (especially for exchange replacements), and their return policy blows (they force you to pay shipping - about $12 - and won't ship you a new item until they receive and process the old one, which takes about a week). The one I got in the $250 sale was perfect, but the screen got borked during a screen protector installation, and the replacement seems to have faulty power/volume buttons.
Just returned the Best Buy one. That was $329 plus tax. Just ordered newegg with 3 day shipping, no tax to GA only $283.99 total.
I ordered mine yesterday as well for $283.99. As with all stores and sites, there will be some bad experiences. After reading all the positive reviews I opted to go with newegg. I paid via paypal in case there is some big problem and it's easier to dispute through them than my bank. Hopefully will get home from work on Fri. to have it waiting on me.

Was waiting for a deal on this tablet and it seems new egg has it on sale.I was waiting for a good deal. How good is new egg for good products ? Was hearing some pretty scary stuff about them such as used devices being sold as new and such. What has you guys experience been like using them. Should I jump the gun and go ahead ?

Back between Thanksgiving and Christmas I had Best Buy price match New Egg twice via phone. At that time they were running a post purchase guarantee but currently they (BB) only post match with themselves. The low price guarentee page on their site shows the policy. Scroll to the bottom to watch for special price match offers like I was able to get... twice.
Good luck!

Square Trade Warranty for Note 10+

Anyone here getting Square Trade warranty with your Note 10+ ? Considering fact that phone costs $1100, is Square Trade worth it - or anything else for extended protection ?

I still have my SquareTrade warranty originally purchased for the Note9, now rolled over to the S10+ then I will roll it over to the Note10+ whenever it arrives.

It was $129 for 2 years and $99 deductible. FYI it doesn't cover loss or stolen.

Thanks, that's cheaper than paying $8.99 per month.

Yes it is. I've never had to use the warranty for repairs, but it's definitely a great piece of mind.
Looks like when i try to checkout, i says ran into technical issue
Looking at their website they no longer offer the one time 2 year price, it's now monthly @ 8.99/month and $149 deductible. Does that link you posted get around this?
Thanks,

Not sure, I purchased mine almost a year ago without issue. Give it a shot?
I went with www.upsie.com - it is better value.

I hit the same thing, AFTER it took my credit card. You don't need to use that link just google squaretrade sartphone plan.
I called the number and was told they no longer offer that plan and it was my fault for using google to find them. I explained I was on a page in their site that took my credit card and that he's telling me it's an old unsupported page that you can only get to through google.
I asked to talk to manager and was told they were all busy and one would call me back.
I've used these guys in the past but from that experience I'd stay away from them at all costs. They now have credit cards under false pretense. If I don't get a satisfactory answer within 24 hours I'll be reporting them for PCI violations
UPDATE: Got a call from a "Manager" who obviously had no more clue than the idiot I talked to earlier. He kept saying "well if we charge you, we'll refund". He obviously has not idea about credit card security or his company obligations. I will be reporting them to Allstate and filing a PCI complaint first thing.
I guess I'll get Upsie a shot.
I have used Worth Ave Group. For 1100 in coverage it is about $100 with $50 deductible. Covers accidental damage and theft but not loss.

I have used them for a couple years. Worthavegroup.com. I have made claims for an iPhone and note 8 and note 9. You make the claim then get it fixed (pay out of pocket) submit your receipt. They cut a check within a couple days for the cost minus $50.
