New GearVR 2016 Heads up (20% off in store) - Verizon Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion

Just wanted to pass along the info to you guys. I noticed this morning that on the VerizonWireless website that the 2016 model GearVR was showing as "20% off with the purchase of a Note7" so I figured it was worth a shot to try it in store even though I had pre-ordered. They had no problem hooking me up with the new GearVR for $84.79 after tax once I showed them the receipt that came in my Note7 package. I just so happened to have $84 left on the VZW Debit card I received as part of the S7 BOGO deal I got for my wife and son back in June, so I only had to fork over $0.79 out of pocket.

Good luck :good:

I purchased mine on pre-order at full price. I called them and they credited my account $20.

Very interesting! I was just at the Verizon store and they had a deal going on. With the purchase of a Note 7 (or proof of purchase) they were offering the Gear VR 2016 Edition for $49.99 + tax. Needless to say, I got one...

I think you got lucky because they had the white MicroUsb one for $49.99. The Dark Blue USB C one was 20% off to be $80.

Sales rep might not have realized that there was a difference aside from the external color and just rolled with the 50% off deal. Congrats!

Also $79.99 at BestBuy in store only. No need to purchase Note 7 like the Verizon deal. Grabbed the last one today.

bought one. Pretty cool little toy. haven't played around with it too long. gives me a headache

Best Buy. Long story but they really wanted me to buy a tablet there. Employees came from all around with discounts for me at check out. There was an actual line of employees with printed skews in their hands, each one adding a new discount. I was still in disbelief when I got home. Like I said, Just for fun I might stop by and have a go. I'm sure they need some kind of entertainment around there.
Oh yeah, the funny part was when the all got through with their discounts another guy walked up typed something in, while another dropped his jaw and said, "Did you just give him a $100 off without a managers aproval, how did you do that?" He just smiled and walked away. Everyone gets luck once in a while.
Will bb reimburse 100 to price match if you already purchased and are within 14 day return period?
Can you scan your receipt from best buy ,so some of who not lucky can used as proof of purchase..thanks![...QUOTE=T120ted;15826374]Best Buy.

Thank you so much for this post, I just got back from Staples with a 16gb Tab. The tech guy in the store said they got 3 of them in yesterday and 1 person bought one late last night and the 2nd one was purchased 5 minutes before me and I got the last one. While he and I were talking 2 more people walked up asking for them and were told they were sold out. He said each store only got 2 or 3 of them.
They did have the Xoom, Playbook and Iconia in stock. The Iconia was quite tempting for $299!!! I also wouldn't have minded getting a Xoom for $399 to goof off with. This new Tab is for my son as I already have one myself. I wish they had the 32gb versions in the store but they said that model is only available online. Staples is also running a special for 15% off any tablet accessories when purchasing a tablet but they no Tab accessories in stock yet. The guy said they haven't received their end cap for the Tab which usually comes with the accessories shipment. He said he would honor the 15% offer once they receive their accessories so I'm going to check back periodically. Checking stock on their website shows other stores in the area have Tabs as well but the guy said it can take up to 24 hours for the online stock checker to update so with the rush of buyers looking for them with the coupon deal I suspect they'll all be gone very quickly. FYI, they are selling the metallic gray version (not the white). The website doesn't give any indication of color...

So how much did you exactly pay for the 16gb SGT??
Depending on your tax, I got mine for $430 after tax and coupon.
Too bad they don't stock the 32GB in any of their stores...
I wonder if they will honor this coupon over the phone to order a 32GB?? Guess I'll be trying here shortly
they do honor in store...

Tried a few Staples in DC metro area. Some don't have any. One store that do have in stock can't make the coupon work. Finally found one store that the manager knows about the coupon and offered to order one for me from Kiosk and pay at the register to use the coupon w/o any problem. I'll pick the tab up this Firday. $420 with tax.
Well, I was on a fence because of luck of Netflix. But now Netflix is sorted out and I've got 16Gb for 400 bucks plus tax from staples.
Got mine from staples 424.99 16gb when to four stores and the last store had 3 left also most stores don't have them on display
I picked up my Galaxy 10.1 at Staples today. I noticed that they didn't have any on display, but there were Xooms, Acers, Blackberries, etc. When I asked them why, they said that yesterday somebody tried to walk off with the display model, so they took it off display. Seems to me that he could have tried to walk off with any of them, so why remove just one?
Anyway, another guy said they had gotten their shipment in on Sunday (3 days ago), and I was the first to buy one. He said the store is getting many returns on tablets, because people buy them thinking they are laptops -- minus the keyboards. I assured him that I was familiar with the android system, owning a rooted Nook.
I am happy with the Samsung so far, but Honeycomb is a little bigger learning curve over Android 2.3. But my buddy at work has a Xoom, so I'll be picking his brain over the next couple of weeks.

What do you mean, "Netflix is sorted out?" Can Netflix be played on my Samsung? (Forgive me, I'm a Honeycomb newbie).

I just picked up my AT&T G5 this afternoon, only issue I had was them not having the free promo items in stock. "Extra battery, cradle, cable" Mine is arriving in store Thursday the 7th; I did receive my free $100 gift card though. Not an unpleasant experience surprisingly.
Picked up my Titan Sprint G5 from Best Buy this morning, the cradle kit originally back ordered has shipped today.
Verizon model titan color picked up from best buy today as well. None of the promo cradle kits were shipped to them. Apparently it's going to be shipped to my house on the 4th-5th.
Same as few above, Vz Titan, picked up no issues. Promo cradle/battery and USB Micro/C converter shipping next week.
maybe its because you ordered that it arrived to you directly and they are waiting for the "preorder" bonus, maybe try changing the order to pick up at store. i too got my g5 today for att and the bonus didnt arrived yet but they will call me when it arrives i also aplied to the lg page bonus so that i could have 2 spare batteries.

which is the LG Item Code for the Cradle ?
I preordered my G5 in store at best buy and the cradle/batt didn't show up, their system wasn't even loaded for it other than it being an online item or something. They basically had to special order it in for me , then the manager had to override it to get it to me for free. Either way, no big deal, I can manage until next week without my Free extras. I'd imagine I'll only need the secondary batt on rare occasions.
they delayed mine so i went into the store and they said they had 3 on the shelf. Im like why did my instore pickup get delayed then. Oh well canceled preorder and reordered. Special ordered accessory bundle and off i went.
I didn't get a notice but I went to the store on Apr 1 and they had my phone, but no accessory bundle. I bet that's wht they're all delayed. I was able to pick mine up anyway and had the accessory bundle set up to ship to my house when available.
i went into a best buy on sat and they had 1 g5. not one person knew anything about the phone. all the staff kept saying how ugly and stupid the phone was and only bashed it. Funny they had nothing but bad things to say and not a single person had even used the phone... I have been doing much research and the intranet has much of the same. Nothing but negativity or pre-release reviews that don't give this phone any justice.
apparently no one ordered the bundle, so mine is coming in the mail as well...

I don't see Best Buy gift card as an option:
-$100 payment with 2 year contract.

i think the $100 gift card is for at&t- the phone is $199 and you get a $100 gift card in the mail in a few weeks. Sprint phone is $99 at the register so no gift card.
I have at&t and purchased from best buy , it's a $100 best buy gift card that I got right away. Still havent found anything useful to buy as of yet from there.

It's here. I showed this to the rep and he agreed Sprint also receives $100 gift card. I was unable to upgrade for unrelated reasons, however, so I can't confirm that he would have eventually actually given me the gift card. But he was convinced.
However, I'm doing the $150 *cash* bonus on trading in old smartphone via Sprint directly instead. For some reason they're also taking off $15/month for switching to the installments, so once I trade in the old phone it'll be like they paid me $44 over the next two years to have upgraded.

I didn't see one for Sprint so I figured I would start one. I ordered directly from Sprint. Got the black S8+. I was debating ordering from them or Best Buy but went for Sprint. Hoping I get it before April 21st.

I was having the same exact thing! After multiple hours on the phone, online and in the store. Finally was elevated to retention department and they were able to fix the problem (I think they simply voided the lease). So frustrating since my wife's had no problem upgrading. Glad to hear (although unfortunate) that I wasn't the only one having this problem.
IS there not that many Sprint people around? Am I with the wrong carrier?
I'm around and getting ready to do the same thing (upgrade to the S8)

Because I signed up to return it and never did. So they contacted me and offered me more. And sprint contacted them when I tried to upgrade to s8+ and my meid number didn't match my original note 7 so sprint couldn't do anything

So you just really got your refund on the note 7?
I pre-ordered from sprint.com
Can't wait! - S8 midnight black
I am selling my Pixel XL (128mb) when this comes in. WELL - I'll live with it a little bit and make the decision.
The Pixel XL is honestly really great. Just boring.
And I am excited to get to a "truly one handed" phone with a large screen (if infact the S8 can be that for me).
Does Sprint have any history of delivering early or anything?

I'm with T-mobile, but over the weekend a Sprint rep tagged me down while I was walking by, he was arguing with me that 256GB micro SD card doesn't exist, because they were offering 128GB micro SD card lol
I pre-ordered in black, online at 1 am on the 30th. Hoping they ship early, but being on sprint and with a Samsung phone I doubt it.

Just wanted to share some of the information I put together while putting in two pre-orders for S8's today at a Best Buy Mobile store.
First off, I was informed by the Assistant Manager that helped me at Best Buy Mobile that the $50 "gift card" for the S8 and $100 "gift card" for the S8+ would lower the amount of the installments over the period of the 24 month installment plan (I assume the same for the lease option too).
For instance, if I go with the 24 month installments on the S8 ($50 deal), I would get $2.08 off for 24 months bringing the monthly price down from $31.25 to $29.17. If I got the S8+ ($100 deal), I would get $4.16 off for 24 months bringing the monthly price down from $35.42 to $31.26.
Now based on what I have read on other forums I am still left wondering if I am actually getting a gift card for the phone or if it will be applied like mentioned above.
In addition I called Sprint to ask about the special offer "Get a $10/mo. loyalty credit on lease or installment billing when you stay on your current plan." that shows on my account. I was informed that I would not be eligible to receive this credit if I got the phone from Best Buy and the only way would be to order it through Sprint or through "telesales". I feel like the person was lying to me and just trying to get a sale.
The Assistant Manager at Best Buy Mobile checked with her local rep who told her that I would get the $10 loyalty credit and that it doesn't matter where the phone comes from; if your plan is eligible the credit will hit your account within a few billing cycles. I asked about the waived $30 upgrade fee that Sprint is offering. The rep said I would not get that (which I'm OK with if everything else checks out).
Anyway, if all this works like I have been told by Best Buy, my two S8's I ordered will be $19.17 a month and if I would have got an S8+ it would come to $21.26 a month.
The question is what is true and what is not true?
Preordered from sprint.com the first day it was available. Getting a $10 a month loyalty credit, or $240 off over 2 years.
Moving from a S4.
I ordered mine from Sprint today. I normally would have used Best buy but they don't offer Galaxy forever.
I had the same problems ordering as others here. They tried to charge me for the rest of my lease from my S7.
Once I called they cancelled the rest of my lease to fix the problem.
At this point it seems Sprint has the best pre-order deal.

Orchid gray plus also, ordered from best buy. That promo they offer i think you need to go on samsung after you get your phone to register. Defaintly gonna pay 100 extra to get that 256evo gb sd card, it cost arou d 100 on ebay on its own

Actually, the black one was super nice. Sort of reminded me of the Jet Black iPhone. Coming from the LG V20 that I absolutely hate. Always having samsung sort of spoiled me I guess

I called Best buy twice. The two agent's I talked to said the Galaxy forever was a Sprint only promotion.
That $100 they are taking off the monthly payment isn't such a great deal when your making 24 payments.
I rather go through Sprint and be able to trade my device in after 12.

Lol i did the same thing i havent recieved it yet so i havent been able to send my phone back... i have an old moto x im hoping they'll take because I wanna keep my nexus 6p around
btw: the s8 is on backorder so idk when it'll ship
Might as well buy your phone from a guy in an alley way. ?
Last week the Samsung eBay page had the S8 and Plus for $599 and 699, but by the time I went to order, only had the Plus. After using it a few days, but a bit too tall and heavy for my liking, so sending it back.
I ordered the S8 from Samsung yesterday using the $200 trade in and free 2 day shipping. It also said backordered, but did ship out a few hours later for delivery tomorrow.
The oldest phone I have here is a Verizon Note 2, so I'll most likely sent it in for the tade, as they are only selling for about $100.
So in the end, would go from $740 for the S8+
(including tax) on eBay to $450 for S8 on Samsung.com. I know I could of done the S8+ for $100 more, but opted for the slightly smaller model.
Seems this is a trend, price is high in the first few months and then it drops, same thing happened with the s7.
I did! I sure hope I don't get ripped off.
Ordered Sunday night and I'm still waiting for a shipping number.

Samsung is known for ripping off people
Yep, I ordered the unlocked version yesterday, but it's backordered. I figured that I'm never going to get $200 from my LG G5 unless I take them up on this.
Anyone care to comment on how long you've been backordered? I'm a bit concerned about this arriving when I'm out of town in a few weeks, which reduces the time I have to transfer and then ship off my trade-in.

So the trade in for the Sprint only accepts Samsung phones, not any phone for $200 like some of the other carriers. If I trade in my HTC 10 for the Verizon version of the S8 would I be able to follow the carrier switch guide and activate it on sprint?
I ordered the unlocked S8 Sunday night and just got shipment notification this afternoon.

Still waiting for mine to ship. I ordered the day after you. =(
Mine has not shipped yet . Anyone know if I can get a cheap $25 prepaid smart phone and trade that in. I really don't want to trade in my Nexus 4 or Moto X.

Got my shipping notice today. That was 9 days, I think.
I ordered on the 20th and got it on the 22nd, even though it said it was backorder.
Ordered on the 19th and received it 2 days later.
Traded in my wife's Verizon S6 for the unlocked version for $454.xx
Mine shipped yesterday, and should arrive on Monday (July 3). I hope they take my Samsung Galaxy S (AT&T Captivate). Perhaps they can put it in a museum. It meets every qualification I can find, as it holds a charge and the screen is in perfect shape.
