I have never had a Best Buy employee open a box after activating it. I specifically ask them not to, and to not worry about helping me setup my phone.
Just say that, and you will be fine...
Just ask them nicely, and I am sure you will be fine. If not, you will just have to deal with it.
Their off contract phones are always a bit more expensive than other retailers, it's always been this way. The iPhone 6S isn't any different.
Correct,that's why some stores won't do the price match. Most stores will because let's face it,am I really going to loose a sale over $50.00 dollars where your going to more than likely buy some accessories and possible a protection plan and have you as a satisfied customer.
Its 10pm and it still says processing. I'm gonna be worried if by tomorrow afternoon it's not in preparing status cause it should be shipping already I would think. I had it preordered for store pick up
Any pre-order item that I have purchased from Best Buy has never gone to preparing item the day before for in store pick up items, only the day of. So don't be alarmed if your status doesn't change if you did in store pick up.
Alright I appreciate it. I'm gonna call my store tomorrow afternoon if I don't get any type of email yet to make sure everything is good and if there opening at 8am
So I should wait until Friday to worry? If I don't have an email from best buy tomorrow night I'm a head to an att store and pick one up and than just cancel best buy...
Don't wanna wait and than not get it and everywhere sell out
I would not cancel Best Buy and let it play out. If you can get an AT&T phone then do it because the Best Buy phone, if available, isn't going anywhere for 3 days minimum. I am waiting at home for my wife's phone, so even if Best Buy says my phone is ready, I am not rushing down there.
Well I think I may go to ATT around 7, they open at 8. If they have one get it otherwise hope best buy has it
That's not a lot of phones tbh. After you separate them by the carriers and all.my friends store as of today
I'm not sweating it. Though yes I hope I get it Friday I won't cancel it from Best Buy. My phone cost $960. I have $315 in Best Buy gift cards. So it will be way cheaper for me if I wait. Waiting on unlocked Verizon 64gb iPhone 6s Plus. Had to pay outright so I can keep my unlimited data. Damn Verizon lol
That's supposedly what came in on the weekly truck. More are supposed to be coming tomorrow I'm guessing through UPS/FEDEX.
My preorder wasn't among them either, so I'm just as worried as you guys.
So I checked before I left and we did get the phones in. We only have a handful of 6s Plus units and a ok amount of 6S. No Rose Gold that I saw. Most of the phones were for ATT.
