I know this is pretty stupid, but I purchased the OG pro at full retail price 22 days ago. I called at&t to see if I could exchange the black for the white and they would not budge. I know they have their 14 day policy but they can't make an exception? I even talked to a supervisor and he was pretty uselss.

LGOGP must be selling poor
Who knows, it seems like LG Optimus G Pro is selling poorly ... I've picked up one in white this morning for 400$ + tax at AT&T retail store. I thought it is selling at 439$, but the CSR showed me the screen (kind of didn't wanted to sell it for 400$ thinking that is mistake).

400 before taxes is a good deal but it must be in store only because online it still shows 439.99.

Is it a flip cover? You can still see the front if it's not. White looks so classy I would definitely do it if I could but I got my phone about a month and a half ago

Couple pics for anyone wondering what the actual white AT&T pro looks like.

Heres the deal. The reason u got the phone for 400.00, as did I, is because of the new upgrade feature they are running. At&t next. I bought lg og pro for 400.00, and htc one for 540.00! Saved 100.00 bucks. The at&t rep told me i got a deal, and that they werent supposed to sale them to me for that price, unless i was due for a 12 month upgrade. Hell im not even an at&t customer! I use these phones on my straight talk sim.
Anyways, hope that cleared up the price confusion. If i were u guys looking to buy a phone right out.....i would jump on this before at&t fixes the price in their system.
Edit.....there is no sales tax here in montana, so i paid 400.00 straight up.

So, you are saying that the system is confusing the price with the price for the "Next" thingie that they've announced. Ha!
I can't complain for the 400$ price, but at the same time got me worried; it seemed to me that ATT is trying to clear the stock so the they can discontinue the product. I know, it doesn't make any sense, especially now that they've released the white one and G2 is on the horizon, but sometimes ATT is weird player.
Anyhow, in june i got the black one, but i've returned it because i didn't like the color (hate fingerprints everywhere). Now that i have the color that i like, i guess i'll stick with it ... But this price weirdness confused me, to be honest ...

Ya, thats what the sales rep told me. Lol. Im sure the glitch will b fixed soon, thats y i bought both phones when i did. Lol. I always had a htc ONE, but i recently sold it, so i got another. I love both of these phones. The LG screen is amazing. Especially for watching videos. And the ONE build quality, is hands down "the best". I will eventually sale one, and keep the other. Im really hoping development will kick off for this og pro, cuz i really love it. One would think at the 400.00 price tag, we would have a ton of users, and development.

I hear ya. I had a SGS4 from bestbuy before the black LGOGP i had, and i've noticed some crush on the black color while watching movies. I saw the same thing on their floor display and on the ATT's floor display too. So, i've chickened out and returned it. Bestbuy didn't charge me restocking fee, that was good ... The point i'm trying to make is, the screen on LGOGP is absolutely the best one in my experience. Hopefully the CM10.1 port will get ironed out soon ...

Ya, that would b nice. But im not a cm guy. I like this stock rom, and i liked the hyperdrive sgs4 rom for the s4 a lot. Its a stock look and feel rom, with all the features, plus a whole lot of extra features. Im not willing to give up the features in this stock rom, hopefully soon, we will see a stock based rom, with extra features, and mods.

I called and complained plus the Lady saw the log. Sent me this bad boy and a return box for the lgog.

Thanks for the info
The Sprint store price for this phone is $199. They give you 14 days to return and today was day 14. I literally had 1 hour before the Sprint Store closed so I called them up and said, Amazon is selling this for $149 - same plan and all. Can you match the price, saving me the return? They gave me a credit for the difference in price. Thanks for the info, man.

Thats where I bought my white one. Best buy.
I just called sprint and asked about the same.. they just tranferred me to a supervisor who proceeded to argue with me when I was being nice. I explained that's fine I'm within my 14 days. I'll look into cancelling and going to another carrier if they aren't willing to credit the difference. So far I love the phone, but sprint's customer service is really pathetic. They won't do anything for you and the techs they hire are little more than high school grads if that.

So true... in fact, it seems that our phone support services for any company these days consists of either people IN India, or high school rejects. Hell, here in Oregon, they farm DMV (department of motor vehicles) phone calls to the prisoner inmate system. And yes, they can access your records.

Price bought off contract

Did anyone buy the device without changing their contract and if so how much did you pay?
I know at&t quotes $650 but I'm sure there are ways to buy buy for less (aside from getting axxount credits)

$650. Only way to lower that is the early upgrade thing for $550, but it extends your contract.

Yes it's $649 unless you're able to get the store manager to cut you a deal like I've had done once or twice in the past. I'll be returning my IP5 tomorrow in exchange for the Note 2. I hope they aren't too mad at me. Battery life on the IP5 leaves a lot to be desired.

Outright price has always been cheaper from AT&T. Everywhere else I've seen is $699.99 or more.
What kind of deal u had with the manager to get it cheaper than $650?

When I purchased my last S3, the manager went in the system and marked it down to $399 since I'd purchased so many phones. Just have to be nice to people sometimes.

How did you guys manage to get one off contract? I showed up early this morning and was the first into one store and they would no sell me one without signing a new contract. I even called customer service who called the store to clarify and told me it was up to the manager to decide whether or not they would sell it to me without contract because they are in limited supply. I called another store thinking maybe it was just that one at&t store and I was told the exact same thing by the other store. It's driving me crazy because I was ready to fork over $650 + for this phone. Customer support wouldnt even let me order over the phone because they claim that the phone isn't even in their system yet. Very disappointing day so far...
Picked mine up from AT&T for $550 plus tax = $593
They extended my contract for 2 yrs from today.

I had an account already but I just told the guy I was paying the no commitment price and he didnt question it. Rang me up in about 3 or 4 minutes and I was done.

I literally walked in and said I was buying for the off contract price and that was it, guy rang me up and gave me my phone. My brother works for bestbuy mobile and he said that sometimes stores will do that to maximize sales because thats how they will make there money, off the contract instead of the phone. So if you were off contract i can see why they would be pricks about it.

Man this sucks for me. I am still under contract but the guy didn't even ask. I have called about 10 stores and the story has been the same except for one guy who offered to sell me one for $750 cash only!! I laughed in his face before I hung up that phone. I have a business account and I finally got off the phone with someone who was willing to help me order it, but get this, they charge businesses $100 more for the no contract price...$650 vs $750. That is so close to Best Buy's price of $800 that I stop from ordering it. I will speak with my company's account rep next week but this is really shady business even from At&t. Without my grandfathered unlimited plan I would be walking out the door at this point.

Yeah, you got that right. South Florida = Scumbag Land. This is the shady dealings I have had with a major company in a while. There shouldnt be this big of an issue buying off contract. It clearly lets you do it on the website, although when I tried that it makes me set up a new line of service or I have to act like a new customer. I even thought about buying it as a new customer and then canceling the line, etc. but that it just way to much work for a cell phone. Why they can't just shut up and take my money....I'll never know!

Hey Note2 owners (and soon to be owners),
I tried all afternoon on launch day to pick up one at non-commitment price, but all the AT&T stores here in Los Angeles area wouldn't let me as they were in "limited stock" and reserved for new or upgrade accounts. I even called a friend who knew a manager but he said the same thing. The only way was to order it online as it ships from warehouse.
I do have an issue though and I was wondering if anyone else is in the same shoes as I am.
I placed an order online that same afternoon, but ever since and until now it still shows "Status: Attention" on my order status page. I did call AT&T Premier to make sure, and the rep told me that it's still being processed and take anywhere from 24-48 hrs to finish processing the order, considering that the weekend was non-business days.
Is anyone else who ordered online on launch day still show that status? I've been stuck on my old flip RAZR phone for a month now since my issue with my S3 being fraudulently reported stolen (a story I might like to tell someday).
Just wondering if it's just bad luck with me or something. I just want my Note 2 and carrying this RAZR is kinda embarrassing lol
Thanks guys for any input.

My online (pre-)order status went from "Pending" or "Processing" to "Shipped". I never saw an "Attention" status, and I believe others here who did said it indicated that there was a problem that was holding up the order. Probably good to check with them again.

Why not order it online? That seems to have worked smoothly for most people. I did that (for the full no-contract $650) and kept my grandfathered unlimited data plan (although initially AT&T changed it to a 3GB plan, and I had to call and have the unlimited plan restored).

I preordered from ATT. Got it on November 9th and it has been my daily driver since. The first thing I did was put a screen protector on it and put it in a case (OEM Samsung) I received my Seidio Surface combo last Saturday and am all set!
I loved my OG Galaxy Note, but I love the GN2 more! It is so much smoother and has so many more capabilities. My wife has a SGSIII so the phones work well together sharing media etc. I take notes at work, so this is THE device for me. The battery life seems to be outstanding so far. Have not seen it below 30% or so in a regular 12 hour day.
Picked an ATT version up on ebay for $599 total. Love it so far.

What color are you guys getting? $599 is the best price I've seen so far. I was hoping for a BF/CM discount but no such luck yet.
Got mine from Best Buy price matched as well, thought about switching to the Nexus 4, then noticed the screen is tiny. Once you have a 5.5" screen nothing else seems right.

I have a N4 on order but the longer I wait the less interested I am in it. If I was on T-Mobile? Sure. Done deal. But as long as el Diablo doesn't fire me for my unlimited data plan the lack of LTE is a deal breaker. It's not so much the LTE as it's the throttling. On the LTE plan it goes to HSPA, EDGE on the Nexus.
I got mine for $550 off Craigslist.

Picked up off-contact for $650+tax. Tried it as my replacement for my laptop on a trip this week-huge success. Worth every penny.

I bought mine no commitment and when my wife touched it I had to order another no commitment. $649.99 each but absolutely no regrets. This phablet is worth every penny. I feel its a great upgrade from the Note.
got mine from att for 650 but called att and got a free $300 credit for being loyal

Where is this magical offer? How are you guys getting this?
Sold iphone 5 on craigslist for 850. Bought international Note 2 on craigslist for 600. Sold international Note 2 on craigslist for 600. Bought AT&T Note 2 for 650 + tax. Had it for two weeks and love it more than any phone I've tried. I usually flip a phone every 2 months. I can see myself keeping this one a year. Never tried the original note. Now that ive tried the Note 2 I dont think I can go back to a regular phone

Got mine off of Ebay brand new with the fancy flip cover (grey) for $660.00 & free shipping (before AT&T had them in the store, went to the Samsung site and got a quote for upgrading (trade in my Galaxy Note) and got a promise (it is in process) of $375.00 for sending in my old Note (which is $75.00 MORE than I paid AT&T for it).
So I end up getting a new Note 2 for $285.00 Off contract, now just waiting for my rebate card from Samsung.

Forgot about Samung trade in program. I have my original Note sitting at this point collecting dust. Do they just mail you a check?
I paid $550 + tax off contract at at&t. I just asked nicely if they might be able to knock something off for me.
So far I like it better than my so although my touchscreen is less responsive on this.

Best Price on Optimus G upgrade (anything beat Sprint/Amazon $99?)

Hey all!
I've been lurking the forums for a long time. Used some great guides a few years ago to root and mod my LG Optimus S... .which I still use today. It has served me well, but it's time for an upgrade!
I have been watching the LG Optimus G for a month or two... Sprint did their buy one get one free for $200 deal that ended March 1st... now they have $49.99 for a new contract and $99.99 for an upgrade. This matches what Amazon has been running for months. I don't have 4G in my area, and don't expect it anytime soon, so I am waiting to buy when the price drops end. I know the Optimus G Pro is going to be launch in the next few months. SO, should I expect the price to drop again when the Optimus G Pro comes out? or is $99 probably the best deal to expect for some time?
I haven't watch prices for more than a month or two, so if anyone who has seen the market ups and downs could chime in it would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
I got it for $99 from Best Buy a couple months ago and I think it's a steal at that price. The only comparable phones easily go for twice that. I doubt it'll get much better in the near future.
I'm not an expert. Just my two cents.

If it were me in your position .... I would probably wait till the Pro version launches and compare the Optimus G (which I have and love btw) against the G pro and see what kind of upgrade pricing you can get on both at that time. Anyway ... the Optimus G is a GREAT device with a lot of power and at $99 ... it's a steal!
Like the guy above me this is just my opinion on the issue. That Pro version sure looks nice but I am married to the Optimus G for 23 more months :good:

Yeah but what carrier is picking up on the G pro? The G wasn't exactly a cash cow for them.

You can find it used in Craigslist for 200 in KC. If you want some advice, never get stuck in a contract. Buy used stuff cheap and sell your old stuff on eBay.

One of these days I will learn that. You are very correct.

True, ebay gives top rated sellers pretty hefty discounts. But even if I didn't have it I wouldve still turned a profit ~15 or so.
I've seen online ads saying you can get the LGOG for $49 but only as a new contract. Not an upgrade or added line. Either ATT or Sprint.

Care to elaborate? I'd love to find that kind of a deal on my contact renewal.
I got my LGOG for free. We upgraded my wife's phone through Best Buy and got the fifty dollar gift certificate. I waited to upgrade mine and they had a weekend deal for the LGOG for 49.99. Gave then gift card and had to swipe my card because it was a purchase but that was it. Even better i live in NH with no sales tax. Literally cost me nothing.
if you wanna grab a white gs3, i'll trade you my optimus g.
pm me
My fiancee and I got ours a few weeks ago on a buy one get one paying $200 for the one.
I upgraded at Best Buy back in January when they were running the "buy the phone for 99 and get a free LG stereo bluetooth" special. My girl wanted a bluetooth anyway, and I figured, why buy a bluetooth for her for 70 bucks when I can pay 30 more and get a new phone as well.

web only upgrade AT&T Note II Reburb for $9.99

* Looks like AT&T cuaght it last night and changed it back*
Saw this at work today and thought I would share it with everyone. I don't know how long it will last though. It says web only, but I called and they not only moved my upgrade up a couple months but they also matched the price!!!
If any of you have an upgrade or know someone who does, this is the chance. They only had white left when I called this afternoon.

With a 2 year contract. ..??
Clever little ads that ATT pushes out huh ??...g
Of course with a two year contract, it is AT&T after all It's still a great price if you have an upgrade though. Last week when I checked they were $199 with a 2 year....
I know I didn't hesitate to grab one today!
Now it's time to do some reading on rooting and roming so I can put this Infuse in the desk drawer
Geeve
Edit: unless you are insinuating that I am an AT&T shill, which I am not, pushing an ad? Just thought it was a good deal and wanted to share...

AT&T pushed it back up to $199.99 might have been an error on their part, you lucked out.
I hope others managed to get in on it before they caught it!

already back up to 199 if i follow the link in the op. :/
Yea, looks like AT&T made a mistake and fixed it last night. There was a really short time frame. That's why I posted the screen shot as well to show what I saw at the time I got it ordered. I was hoping to help a couple folks out and get the deal before AT&T caught it.....
Edit: Just checked my shipping status and will be at my house when I get home from work I am so excited right now.....

Wasn't a mistake. Att does has done this for the refurb note 2's twice already. Cheapest refurb it ever went was 99cents.
This deal started 2 days ago and was posted in slickdeals.net. Just so happened all the refurbs sold out already.

In looking at my post, I may have come off a little harsh on that comment, I want to apologize if I did.
But it's good that you started this topic. Probably made some curious people into buying a note 2 for cheap. (Just like how I'm curious for the $130 HTC one at Costco)
Not at all, I honestly didn't know AT&T did that.

If you're near Fairfax VA or Columbus Oh those two Microcenters are the first ones selling ATT phones. They have the S4 and One for $99 and Note 2 for $149. Bought my One there while I was visiting friends. (Then went on to trade my One straight up for 2 Note 2's )

Nah....nothing like that....It's just my being sceptical of ATT at any point. Let alone the offering of a deal like this.
Bait ads are quick, and if a customer bites....good deal....
