Was wondering if anyone on here has printed out from amazon wireless or walmart.com and taken it to best buy to get a price match when activating a new line. Just wanna see if their are some tips before i head over to best buy and see that would do a price match.

i did this also. best buy price matched the 149 new line note on amazon as an upgrade. when it dropped to 99, i just took the print out back in and they gave me a 50 dollar gift card since i was within my return period.

Yeah im about to take a print out of the amazon wireless into bestbuy, i had only christmas money to play with to buy a phone and i went with the optimus G... but if i can get a price match for amazon wireless i would be happy to fork up an extra 70 bucks for the note 2... should i call around first or actually go into a best buy?

It was very subjective at the two Best Buys I talked to before. Try calling and make sure you get the name.

The second store was going to price match but then could not because I was on SERO.

They can price match the note because amazon is the seller not a third party store. The guy I talk too at first said no because the note could not be bought of the moble version of the website. I told him he had to go to the full site to buy the phone by pressing on the hyperlink. It is amazing a phone rep did not his brower could veiw full sites. I got the price match rate at 149 on monday. It went up to 249 the next day.

I walked in and told them I wanted to return the phone. They asked why. I told them it was 1/2 price on Amazon. They looked it up and refunded me the $150 + tax.

I took advantage of it and got the note 2 for 49.99 and t the galaxy s3 for a penny by price matching Amazon. The mobile stores won't if they are back ordered, but the big box store gave me no trouble an hour later.

So an update, just got back and ended up getting it for $139.99... i guess the chick i talked to thought it was a new line when it was an add a line... so with my return of the optimus g and the case... i ended up paying around $20 bucks... pretty smooth transaction with no questions asked besides why i was switching

so you was able to use your upgrade and get the note 2 for the price listed for a new line

im going to try that. do you thinks it better to go in the store or call first and see if i can get my phone upgraded, at adding a new line prices. amazon wireless has the phone for 169 if you add a line.

I would just go in. If at first they deny then ask for a manager. If in the end it doesn't work then call the 1800 number. Their policy right now is to price match online retailers. They have to honor it. Unless the policy just ended since the holidays are over.

I just picked one up from best buy and had them price match Amazon. No problems at all so I walked out with one for $139.99 plus tax. All the money I saved just got plunked down on accessories on Amazon

With this phone you been never have too many accessories. Gotta protect it due to its plastic body..That's the only complaint I have.

When I saw it was $99 I just printed it out and went in. Didnt want to ask over the phone becasue since its new the probably would have said no right off the bat. Sorry for the slow response.
