Just thought I would share my experience. Got the $99 price, was denied the $50 gift card. Can't really complain, getting a phone during it's first week for that is awesome. I had pre-registered for the $50 deal, but the guy was having issues trying to get it to work. He said he'd just sign me up again and it said my phone number had already been used. He then called in and was told the deal wasn't valid on the G3. I was offered 25% off accessories when they finally get some in stock as some compensation. So far very happy, now time to root.

Ended up getting mine from my store. Got the phone on next paired with the g watch and a tempered glass screen protector. Traded my s4 in and didn't come out of pocket at all.

Hi all! First time poster here.

I was lucky enough to catch this Best Buy special and bought the G3 for Sprint at Best Buy this past Friday the 11th. I did reserve and bought the phone online with local pickup. What sucks is that the gift card is supposed to be e-mailed to me after 14 days, so now that it seems to exclude G3, I may not get the card =\

I guess we'll see.

On the bright side, because they had difficulty activating my new G3 (after 8pm, apparently it can be difficult to activate on Sprint) and had to switch to another one, I was able to get $10 off my Invisible Shield HD purchase.

Hopefully I can still get the card, but at least I got the G3 for $99 and am loving it! Just gotta get control of the battery drain. Whew!




Bestbuy also had the $50 discount listed on the G3 product page, but it has been removed. Yesterday there were 4 special offers available, but today there are only 3.

I did sign up for the $50 best buy card when you upgrade your phone at Bestbuy (from a few month back), so I still hope to get the phone for $49.99 after the gift card. I may not be able to get immediate credit, but I'll eventually spend the $50 on something.....

Went into to an att store Saturday and checked out the phone then I went to best buy and they were offering it with a$100.00 gift card if it was bought using the next program. Got it and loving it. I'm not having any of the issues some are reporting.

Galaxie, did they give you the $100 best buy gift card right then and there or did they tell you that it will be emailed to you? Just purchased 2 LG G3s and said to wait for an email, but they seemed unsure.

I got 2 g3 on the 11th and I got a $50 gift card with each phone that I was able to use towards the phone during the purchase. This was on sprint with a 2year contract extension.

I purchased the G3 from best buy on the att next program and they give you the gift card right then and there. I used it towards a case, sd card and tax for the device on the next program.

No matter what, I can never stay away from android for long.

Yea they seemed to have no clue as to what I was tAlking about when I mentioned the gift card as well. Mind you there was a banner at try front it the store that featured the promo. If you go to the best buy desktop site, click on the tab titled shops and deals, click on best buy mobile, it will take you to the best buy mobile page. Scroll down and towards the bottom right side of the page there's a section for this weeks special offers and top deals. Click on that, scroll down and you will see the promo for the G3. It's valid till August 9th. Here are the screenies

    Best buy has a deal for new and existing ATT customers. The best deal I've seen since you also get a $50 gift card. You must activate before 7/12.

    That's an awesome deal for new phone.
    Hope Sprint one drops the price like that too!

    This actually applies to both sprint and Verizon users via best buy! :eek:

    Bought two today on Sprint at Best Buy for $99 each. No complaints here other than acclimating to Sprint's network. Not too shabby in my area though. Glad to be rid of at&t.

    Enjoy downloading 50gb a month on your cellphone (or hotspot) without any charges. Sprint might have crappy network signal at times but they make up for it with that IMO.

    also saw on their website that if you do a payment plan on the phone you get a $100 gift card.

    This is only for the framily plan. Get it before July 24th and get $150 Sprint gift card.....after and get $100 gift card. But you can't combine the $50 Best Buy credit and the Sprint offer.

    Walked in expecting to pay $99. Was told you get a $50 gift certificate and they could apply it to the purchase price.
    $49.99+Tax
