Pre-order at BestBuy???

Just wondering, because I heard that BestBuy will have 30 16gb and 15 32gb. Does this mean that only 45 who pre-order will get their phones on launch day. Or are the 45 phones available for those who didn't pre-order and just walk into that store that day to purchase one?

but let's just say they officially announce they will offer pre-orders, along with a few other stores, does their inventory include or disclude pre-orders? In other words do I have to be one of the first 45 people to pre-order to get my phone on launch day or do all pre-orders get their phone on launch day and the 45 in inventory are available for sale to the people who didn't pre-order?

  • Regretting on pre-order at bestbuy?

    Someone has received iphone 4 from apple today.

    Huge regret on my end.  Should have preordered elsewhere.  Still remember the big smile on my face when leaving the BB on June 15th.  If the mobile manager said I would get one on June 24, who was I to argue.  So thankful for the FAQ so I could have my expectations properly managed after the fact. 
    I have said it before.  If we confirm that the average BB store is receiving plus or minus 5 units for launch, then regardless of finger pointing, the blames lies not only with Apple, but with BB for allowing it to happen.
    LOL, anyone here planning to stand in line at an Apple store?  I am mentally preparing for a 5am arrival.
    Incidentally, I just checked status at my BB store #358 in Henderson NV.  They have not received their shipment yet but the manager was "not aware" of any impending shortage.  I told her I was #18 overall for a 32gb Black and she said I should be fine.  Either she is grossly misinformed, or I am.  Either way, with multiple reports coming in from stores receiving 5 phones, I do not have much faith in the manager's reassurances.  I am just wondering why they are still so confidently telling customers what they want to hear.  It will just be that much uglier if and when the opposite happens.

  • Bestbuy Pre-Order?

    Ok so I just got of the phone with AT&T and said the only places you can Pre-Order a iphone 4 is from Apple or AT&T so if u plan on Pre-Ordering from Bestbuy good luck the only reason i want it from Bestbuy is because of the protection program! It ***** i wonder how long i will have to wait if i dont Pre-Order!

    with the iPad, Best Buys did receive stock to sell on launch day. I'd expect to see some announcements in the week or so before launch clarifying whether it's worth lining up at Best Buy, etc. Just watch the headlines on places like TUAW.com--they'll probably even have a "where you can get it" story sometime June 21-23.

  • Will BestBuy offer Toukiden: Kiwami for Pre-order?

    Will Toukiden: Kiwami be available for pre-order on bestbuy? The game is scheduled to be released on PS4 and Vita on March 31, 2015. Please note that Gamestop and Amazon are currently taking preorders for this title.

    Hello MonsterHunter, 
    To hear you've had such poor experiences lately, including issues purchasing a Gamers Club Unlocked membership and pre-ordering other games, that you've only chosen to shop with us to use your Gamers Club Unlocked membership is greatly discouraging. Hopefully I will be able to provide some clarification on why you had such troubles pre-ordering Toukiden: Kiwami in store. 
    Presently, it appears that this title is only available for pre-order with ship to home. That being said, this would not be able to be pre-ordered in store, or online for store pickup. I sincerely apologize if this circumstance was not brought to your attention sooner, and apologize for any frustration or inconvenience this may cause. 
    Please let me know if you should have any other questions! 
    Sincerely,

  • South Park Pre-Order and the GCU 20% off

    I was searching, but none of the topics came up with this.  I know if we pre-ordered it before it was lost we get the $20, will we get the GCU 20% on new games when we pick it up?

    Hi VetRaptor,
    Thank you for the question, and thank you for being a My Best Buy Gamers Club Unlocked member.  I can provide the answer to your question.  
    When we announced the Gamers Club Unlocked enhancements, including the 20% discount on new games, we provided an FAQ here on our forum.  One of the questions was regarding existing pre-orders.  Find the whole article here, but please see below for the answer to your question.
    Q: If I have already pre-ordered games, will the 20% off be applied to those orders?
    A: This will depend on whether you placed these pre-orders in-store or through BestBuy.com
    In-Store:
    If you pre-ordered in-store, you will receive the 20% off benefit as long as you are an active Gamers Club Unlocked member when you pick up your pre-order. You will need to ensure your My Best Buy account is added to the purchase when the game is picked up.
    BestBuy.com:
    If you pre-ordered on BestBuy.com for either Store Pickup or shipping, we are not able to add this benefit to your existing order. You will need to either cancel and re-do your pre-order or return and repurchase the game once it is fulfilled to get the 20% off. To receive this benefit going forward, you will need to ensure that you are signed in to your BestBuy.com account when you place an order and have your My Best Buy account linked to your BestBuy.com account.
    Thanks!

  • New Nintendo 3DS XL Consoles available for pre-order at Best Buy! Did someone say "Majora's Mask"?

    I’m personally very excited to announce that Best Buy has now listed three New Nintendo 3DS XL consoles for pre-order on BestBuy.com! Now, you’ll not only be able to enjoy your favorite Nintendo 3DS games on the go, but you’ll be able to utilize your beloved amiibo figures as well with the added NFC capabilities. This is just one of the new features of Nintendo’s new 3DS XL consoles.
    Here’s the most exciting part, in my opinion. Aside from a red and black option for the new 3DS XL consoles, Nintendo will also be releasing a Limited Edition Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3DS XL! As a long-time fan of the Zelda series, I’ve been waiting for Majora’s Mask to come to Nintendo’s handheld systems and now, everyone will be able to enjoy not only the game itself, but a 3DS XL console made specifically for it!
    Here are the links to each of the new Nintendo 3DS XL Consoles on BestBuy.com:
    Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask Limited Edition 3DS XL Console >
    New Nintendo 3DS XL Console – Black >
    New Nintendo 3DS XL Console – Red >
    The new consoles will release on Friday, February 13th, so head over to BestBuy.com via the links above to procure your pre-orders!

    I was able to place an order for the new 3DS XL MM Edition via bestbuy.com. My order shows processing so all seems well. My question is in regards to when this will ship? I usually use amazon.com for online preorders as they are shipped so that they arrive on release day. Is this the same with bestbuy.com? If not, would it be possible to switch to in-store pickup so that I can get the item on release day? Thanks.

  • Reward Certificates And Pre Order Cancel

    Hello. I previously pre ordered Evolve using a 10 dollar reward certificate. I hardly cancel pre orders so this has never happened to me. I was wondering if I canceled it would I lose the 10 dollar reward certifcate? I pre ordered it awhile back so I'm sure it's expired. I plan on ordering another game right away with it and the money I had down on the pre order. I've completely lost interest in Evolve. After seeing the all the future dlc costs I don't care much about this game anymore.

    Good morning BrennanP,
    Thank you for taking the time to post your question to the forum.
    While the $10 certificate you applied to your Evolve pre-order may have expired, the point value ($10 = 500 points) should repost to your My Best Buy™ account 3 to 6 business days after you cancel the pre-order.  The certificate would have been considered fulfilled when it was applied to the pre-order, so the expiration date should not come into play.
    If for some reason you do not see 500 points repost to your account after 6 business days or if you placed the pre-order on BestBuy.com and want help cancelling it, then please feel free to send me a private message and I will see what I can do to help.  You can send a private message by clicking on the blue button in my signature labeled "Private Message."
    Returns When a My Best Buy™ Certificate was Used
    I hope you have a wonderful day!

  • Persona Q Premium Edition pre-order issue

    Hi,
    I pre-ordered 2 copies of Persona Q Premium Edition, but when I view the product page for it in my order history, it shows me the description for the standard edition. It's the same issue many other people are having. I'm wanting to know what can be done about this issue.
    Thanks

    Hi nubtarts,
    When this title was initially made available for pre-order on BestBuy.com, the standard edition was incorrectly listed as the Wild Cards edition. The SKU number was correct though, and our merchant team has since made sure SKU #7377002 properly reflects the standard edition online.
    I've sent you some additional information, so please make sure to check your private messages when you can. To check your PMs, simply sign into the forum and then click on the letter icon in the upper right-hand corner of the page.

  • Can I pick up a pre order made with my sisters name / number??

    Simple question. I made two pre orders, both under my sisters phone number and name. Do I need to be with her when I pick up the games.

    Hey Mrlaedis,
    Evolved is correct: the person whose name is listed on each pre-order is the only person who can pick those items up. The only exception to this would be if you placed both orders on BestBuy.com for store pickup and designated yourself as a Friends & Family pickup option at the time of checkout. For more information though I'd encourage you to refer to our pre-order FAQ:
    BestBuy.com > Help Center > Pre-Orders

  • Last of us pre-order

    I haven't received my preorder bonus

    Hi Lballer69,
    Thanks for reserving and purchasing your copy of The Last of Us Remastered with us! Hope you're enjoying the game so far.
    Like Mindphaser mentioned, Survival Pack redemption codes for in-store pre-orders should be printed on the final sales receipt. Customers who pre-ordered on BestBuy.com, however, should receive theirs within 24-48 hours of their order being shipped or picked up.
    I've sent you some information, so please make sure to check your private messages when you can. To check your PMs, simply sign into the forum and then click on the letter icon in the upper right-hand corner of the page.

  • MGS: V Pre-order/price drop

    Hello,
    I pre-ordered Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes - PlayStation 4 when it was $39.99 and it recently dropped in price to $29.99.  My pre-order included other items and I used a reward zone certificate on the order.  The total for the game after 20% GCU discount was $31.99 and then -$10.48 for the distributed reward zone certificate.
    What I need to know is, do I need to cancel and reorder?  Or will I be refinded the difference somehow by letting the order go through completely?  The way I see it, the total should now be $13.51 after GCU discount and RZC.
    Please let me know if you need the order number or any other information.  Thank you for your time.
    Best regards,
    -Andrew

    Hi andrewcounty,
    Good question! Whenever you pre-order an item on BestBuy.com and a price change occurs prior to release, you'll always receive the lower of the two prices. Any applicable GCU discounts and My Best Buy certificates will then be applied to the lower sale price when your order is shipped or picked up at your local store. For additional information though I'd encourage you to check out our Pre-order FAQ:
    BestBuy.com > Help Center > Pre-orders

    I hope this helps.

  • The Last of Us Remastered Pre-Order/Price Drop

    Has it been announced how the price drop affects preorders on The Last Of Us? I ordered before the price drop, and the price drop is still not reflected in my order. It still shows at the original price (less my GCU discount).
    Will I need to return it and buy again to get it at the right price?

    Hi fossen,
    Thanks for reserving your copy of The Last of Us Remastered with us!
    Whenever you pre-order on BestBuy.com, you're automatically guaranteed the lowest pre-release sale price available. This means that if you pre-order a game at $59.99 and it later drops to $39.99 prior to launch, you should only pay the $39.99 plus applicable sales taxes and shipping. For more information, you may want to check out the following FAQ:

    I hope this helps.

  • Wii U pre order guaranteed?

    I managed to pre order the Deluxe Wii u package at my local best buy. Does this mean that I am GUARANTEED a Deluxe Wii U package? Or is it possible that they get sold out and I don't get it even if I pre ordered?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    CrystalWoW wrote:
    Yes it could be sold out and no it is not guaranteed. It is guaranteed that if you were the 2nd person to preorder it and they get two that you get one.
    How can a pre-order not be guaranteed? When it comes to a new video game system that is releasing, retail stores such as best buy make sure that they have an excess amount of units than preordered. This is so the people that didn't have a chance to preorder can wait in line and have a shot at still getting the system. What would be the point of pre-ordering if you aren't even garanteed the product that you ordered ahead of time? As long as you get a pre-order in before best buy cuts off pre-ordering you should be guaranteed a system. 
    However, one thing that is bugging me is how my pre-order went through when I pre-ordered my wii u. I was going to pre-order on bestbuy.com however, it showed that the console was unavailable to pre-order at any of the stores around my area using the store pick up feature. But when I went to the physical store I saw a pre-order kiosk there. And I pre-ordered the Black 32GB Wii U and got it rung up by a clerk. He said that I would be guaranteed the console on launch day. And I don't see a reason to doubt that especially since I reserved more than two months ahead of its release. 

  • Pre-orders canceled

    I pre-order my games from BestBuy as I purchased the Gamer's Unlocked Membership. BestBuy convinced me to sign up for their BestBuy Mastercard. I was qualified to enroll and was directed on how to change my previous VISA purchases to the MASTERCARD purchase for the pre-order. Now I come online to check on the status and go pick up one of the pre-orders and BestBuy canceled ALL OF MY ORDERS.
    I lost my pre-order bonus for The Last of Us PS4 edition. What the hell??
    - Bobby H.

    Hello batmanshady,
    I'm not much of a gamer, but as I do place pre-orders for other items, I can imagine being equally as frustrated if this had happened to me multiple times. I apologize for any inconvenience this process may have caused you.
    Orders can sometimes cancel if we are unable to verify some pieces of your information. Having said this, we are aware of our system having some difficulties, and it's left some without their pre-orders they've made.  As I'd to discuss this in detail with you, I've sent you a private message that you may view by making sure you are logged into the forum and clicking on the envelope in the upper right-hand corner.
