Happy Galaxy Nexus launch day in the US. Let's post where you got your GN and how much the store charge you (contract or no contract)
My brother got his @ local Verizon retailer store and it cost him $675 w/o tax (no contract).
local vzw store:
(contract) upgrade $249.
Just got home from Verizon in McDonough, Ga. Got mine for $250 after using my upgrade and jumping on a new 2 year plan.
I got 20 percent off my data package, 19 percent off my entire monthly bill, and 50 bucks off my phone when I bought an accessory, which made the entire package just under 300 bucks, tax included. I chose the extra battery with the charging cradle for it.
EDIT: Local corporate VZW store, they had one set aside for me per our phone conversations yesterday.
I got mine for $225 after new every two, plus living social $25 for $50. Bought 2100 MAH extended battery, haven't opened yet. $275 out the door for all after tax.
$249 From "Cellular Connection" in Fort Wayne, IN. They are a Verizon/Dish Network retail outlet.
Radioshack was $300, Regular Verizon stores were $300.
For those of you that got their phone from a Verizon store, for under the published $299 price, would you mind sharing how you did that?
I have a corporate discount, so I walked out of there with the phone and an extended battery for $265. It would have been $50 cheaper if I would have waited until the end of the contract, but i have a family plan and had an early upgrade and didn't want to wait.
Pittsburgh, PA downtown location of Verizon wireless. $249 upgrade price because of a $50 equipment discount due to my corporate rate.

corporate discount.
not a single person who was being ringed up at the time (about 5 others beside myself) paid the advertised price.
Let's talk selling them for $229.00 on contract.
Sent from the tip of my ThunderStick on a bolt of lightning.
Walmart has em for $229 but if for some reason you go to Best Buy, they will match Walmart's price.
Local VZW store. Was free for me, but my company paid $299.
Radioshack $299 on upgrade
I went in with full intention of paying full retail price (I'm only 8 month in to contract when I got my Thunderbolt in April).
Verizon Store manager kept saying "I hate selling phones for full price and without a contract".
He offered me to extend the contract (even at 8 months in) for $400 + tax. I said sure.
Also gave me the case/protector/charger package, a white plantronics bluetooth headset, and a HDMI cable. When the person assigned to me (not the manager) rang me up, he knocked off 50 bucks off the whole deal.
Walked out with a little over $400 including tax. I think I did okay considering I was gonna go in there paying full retail price + tax.
Troy, MI..got the phone for the $249 renewal price at a Verizon store. Got a Invisi-Shield from Best Buy, a 3-pc ****ty screen protector, extended battery for 50% off, incipio double case for 20% off (from verzion)

Got mine at the closest corporate store to me. Upgrade pricing + $50 discount, so $249.99

thought about doing the Let's Talk deal, but was scared off buy them possibly ****ing up my unlimited data plan..checked a bunch of forums and wasn't convinced Murphy's Law wasn't gonna pass me by. In the end, i'm happy I got a new phone in my hands today, and also was able to defer paying for it for another 28 days or so.
amazon has/had them for $150 today for an hour or so....dont know if they have em now

just press new to att at the bottom. Select the lumia 900 and your plan and cart will show $100 discount
Wow, they really are not ruining this one with the price.
I got the $100 dollar discount, but that discount didn't make it free. It brought the price down from $199.99 to $99.99. I think $200 is the intended retail price, but a $100 promotion bring the price down to $100.
It might be free for others, but thats the way it worked with my company discount.
Mine came out to $0 due after discount. I already got confirmation that the order was processed and sent to the warehouse for shipping
Can I take advantage of this if I am on Sprint and I would like to transfer my line to an existing AT&T plan with my family? I'm new to AT&T even if they aren't.
Nokia Lumia 900 for $99.99 for the phone and you get $100.00 in accessories for free.
Maybe no $36 upgrade charge either; (not confirmed)
So if you haven't received your shipping info for a pre-order I would cancel and enjoy the promotion on Monday's launch.
I expect this to be confirmed at 7pm tonight via Nokia Times Square launch party, followed by $100 million TV barrage to batter the USA for the next 4-6weeks.
P.S> accessories must be compatible with the Nokia Lumia 900, Headphones....

This means you need to buy it at an AT&T store right? And is it only good on launch day or for a limited time from launch day on?
Hoping the Microsoft store matches the promotion, if not ATT HERE I COME!
Not sure how long the accessory promotion is, the source is a rep. I can only speculate on the length of the promotion, but I would think it would last more then a day. The source didn't specify if the $100 had to be used the same day or if it was a gift card or in store credit. The only thing that was specifically mentioned was the accessories had to be Nokia Lumia 900 compatible.
If you go to at$t web site and look at the Lumia 900 "compatible accessories" I count 29 items. However at least 1 item, the alarm dock would appear to not be compatible; its the " iHome iP18 Color Changing Alarm Clock Speaker "
The source also mentioned that $100 mill was being spent in the first 4-6 weeks on promotion, and another $100 mill after, but not sure how long it was to last.
On Monday, when I pick up my phone at a corporate At$t store for $106.74 after tax, I was promised $100 in free accessories and no upgrade fee. This is what I know.
I can only imagine the offers getting better now till Monday not a retraction.
If this is the case though, does that mean those who pre-ordered don't get the $100 in accessories? That would piss me off if I didn't get this deal if I was one of the first who ordered.

I hope you who pre-ordered it do get it. Id rather be pissed I didn't get my phone early, apposed to not getting it early for $99 for $236+ tax in goods, just to wait two days.
My experience with customer service is as long as you don't stop complaining and continually state your case in a calm professional manor and keep working your way up the food chain you will get what you want, with in reason.
According to a post on WPCentral, those who pre-ordered using an upgrade or new contract are eligible (at least for the North Central region).

Very interesting. Are there even $100 in accessories available yet that are compatible with the Nokia Lumia 900? Seems like you'd be buying a bunch of cases when you only really need 1.
Nice!!! glad to see. Those details match the description my source gave me. Nice find uptempo777.
Beats Audio headphones are $99 and are Nokia Lumia 900 compatible.
Also, portable back up batteries are available for ~$35 and ~$40. That may be a good pick up since the battery is not removable. I think two battery back ups and a Gel case for $100 sounds good.

They are listed under compatible accessories on the Nokia Lumia 900 page at Att.com
Do you know if this will be all week? I need to wait till the end of the week (till I get paid) to buy it off contract, hoping I can get this deal too.

While texting my rep back and forth earlier because of some data issues, he explained to me that preorderers get the $100 towards accessories
I called 2 AT&T Stores and asked if they would have any special promotion to buy the Nokia Lumia 900 on launch date and they said they didn't know of any. They said they'll have a Nokia rep on-site that may possibly offer anything but they didn't know of anything for sure.
Any idea if they are playing dumb, are dumb, or just really don't know?
Has anyone confirmed that this is for the entire US, or only the North Central Region as originally noted? BTW, for pre-order customers (like me) you can go into a store and tell them to use "Manager Override Reason Code - LP10". That will get you the $100 credit.
Here is a copy of the store memo from WPCentral.com forums.
It looks to me that you have to sign a contract to get the promotion.
Effective April 6, 2012, customers in the North Central Region who purchase a Nokia Lumia 900 can receive a discount up to $100 to be used toward Nokia Lumia 900 compatible accessories
Minimum $50 accessory purchase required.
Offer requires a new or upgrade Nokia Lumia 900 on a two-year commitment.
Accessories must be purchased in the same transaction as the Nokia Lumia 900 purchase.
If a customer purchased a pre-order Nokia Lumia (between March 30, 2012, and April 8, 2012), the customer is eligible for up to $100 in accessory credit. The credit should be done with a manager override, discount reason code LP10.
The discount is taken off of the device (great for APO.)
The discount requires at least one compatible Nokia Lumia 900 accessory SKU and the Nokia Lumia 900 SKU (65367, 65375, 65511) to be included in the cart.
Five unique barcodes are used to issue the discount:
$60 discount barcode applies to accessories totaling $49.95 - $60.00
$70 discount barcode applies to accessories totaling $60.01 - $70.00
$80 discount barcode applies to accessories totaling $70.01 - $80.00
$90 discount barcode applies to accessories totaling $80.01 - $90.00
$100 discount barcode applies to accessories totaling $90.01 and above
The customer receives up to $100 in credit toward their accessory purchase (no cash back value if the purchase totals less than $100.)
Apple branded accessories, gift cards and iTunes cards are excluded.
The $100 accessory offer applies to Nokia Lumia 900 compatible accessories only.
This offer applies to COR only.
Merchandising
An exclusive price card backer and in-store flyer is being used to promote the $100 Accessory Credit. COR locations are scheduled to receive these price card backers to display the week of April 8, 2012.
FAQs
How long will this offer be available?
This offer will be available for a limited time only.
If my customer purchases $85 in accessories, which barcode should I use?
In the scenario, the customer is eligible for a $90 discount. Use the barcode that will discount the device $90.
If my customer purchases $45 in accessories, which barcode should I use?
There is a minimum purchase of at least $50 ($49.95) in accessories to be eligible for this offer.
If my customer purchases half of his accessories from in-stock quantities and the other half through DF, will the barcode still discount the cart?
Yes. The barcode will recognize the accessories in the cart whether they are in your store or available through DF.
Is my customer eligible for a $15 refund if he purchases $85 in accessories?
No. In order to take advantage of the full $100 credit, the customer must have at least $90.01 in accessories in his cart.
Is there merchandising to support this offer?
Yes. A Price Card backer and in-store flyer will be available to support this in-store offer.
How should we position this offer in store?
Purchase a Nokia Lumia Windows Phone and get up to $100 in free accessories.
Are pre-sales eligible to take advantage of this offer?
Pre-sales are eligible but a manager override needs to be used since the phone was purchased in a different transaction. Use reason code LP10.

I used the promo yesterday. Got a screen protector and jawbone headset which is for sale. I already ordered the gel case when I preordered and that came in yesterday. Glad I did because they didn't have much of a variety of lumia 900 specific accessories.

Hey guys my girlfriend is finally looking for a new phone after getting the Samsung Vibrant a few years ago and has he heart set on this phone. Thing is that we are a little tight on a budget and trying to find the best price. So far I see Bestbuy at 179 and Wirefly at 199. Does anyone know of any other sites that might be cheaper? If this was posted in the wrong place I appologize and will move it to another forum. Thanks guys!
I got my S3 from T-mobile retentions department, I have been with them 9 years. I simply told them I have seen the S3 cheaper other places and would like from them to make me a deal. I got the S3 for $186 with a $100 credit on my account and the $50 mail-in rebate. When it is all said and done I will have paid around $70 with taxes and activation fee.
Costco's also has the Sgs 3 for 179 for the white and blue 16g, you have to have a membership or know someone that does. Bestbuy is a good bet.

I just ordered the S3 16 gb thru customer service this morning. Paid $179.99 + tax and have $50 mail in rebate. Will get the phone next week. Asked her about the $99.99 price on the website, she said that one only for new customers and it is web-only price.
On T-Mobile's website the S3 is $99 for 16GB an $149 for 32GB with a mail in rebate
Hey Guys,
Any of you have the SERO Plan? Are you looking to upgrade to the Note 4 and still keep your SERO plan?
I love my SERO plan, but I am having issues getting in on deals outside of the sprint website. They sites cannot recognize my plan since it is expired.
Please do tell your experience in trying to get the Note 4 and where you are getting it from.
I have SERO too... and SERO can only buy phones through their website, no where else. So have to pay full price or 350 for 2 year contract.
Im on sero, preordered from sprint online. No problems.
same here. SERO 500 premium preordered on sprint website no problem.
Sero is still around?
Sent from my SGNote 3
I've also been unable to upgrade online with my SERO premium account. I get a message that says that I need to change plans to upgrade. I don't have any options to pre-order. Can't do best buy, can't in sprit stores, and can't online...

Just disregard the message, change the plan, and proceed to pre-order the phone. When you do get the phone, just make sure you call sprint and have them transfer you to the SERO department(that is not its exact name... I forget whatnot is called). They will activate the note foe you using your sero plan.
If you are scared to do that, you can call sprint and they will confirm what I just said.
My only issue is that I can't get in on any online deals because the sero plan is expired ... I haven't tried going into bestbuy and see if BestBuy call sprint if they would activate the phone with my sero plan. I have not pre-order the note, and I am waiting to see if I would be able to get it through BestBuy and keep my sero plan.

Is there any debate about the price from Sprint? It's $350 plus tax, $12 shipping, and $36 activation fee.

The price has actually been dropped to $300 to compete with other providers. I plan on trading in an old Galaxy SII and then getting Samsung to to cover the difference up to $200 so this should be a pretty good deal.

when did preordered yours? My coworker did his preordered past Monday morning OCT 6th......and he got his Back Ordered email after 1hr ordered. So yes,,,,he got two emails from Sprint.
I am on Sero. I ordered from telesales. I never received a back order email, but when I check on the order status on the website, it says that my order is back ordered. I just assumed that was code here for pre-order. Are you saying that I am in reality back ordered, and it won't be ship before or on the 17th?

Here's the thing, it is on back order because it is not currently availabe in stock. I got a customer representative to confirm this information. So I think we should be fine.
Well, originally I was told I would get the $50 refund if I called back after receiving the phone. However, after reading in this thread that others got their refund immediately, I entered a chat session with a sales rep, who told me that I would have to cancel the order, and place a new one at the lower price, however, that would result in me getting the phone at some date later than the launch date.
So, I decided to call. I was told by the CS lady on the phone that a $50 credit would be applied to my account within 24 hours of my call. Hah, three different answers. The third time I contacted them, I got what I wanted. I will have to monitor my account to make sure the credit is applied.
Also, she said that with all pre-orders, the product should arrive on the day that the phone is launched in stores (the 17th). I hope that's true. Has anyone else done a pre-order by internet or phone? Is that how it works?
