The tablets are excess inventory they werent going to sell.

Is the phone tied to a service plan? If not its probably excess inventory as previously said. If it is they are making all sorts of money off you

That said, if you DID actually want a tablet, it's a moot point and you still came out on top.

Well I am moving as some of you know so I thought it was a good time to change out stuff so I am trading in my Samsung S10+ for a S21 (I tend to upgrade once every two years, I am on my phone a lot for business + gaming so I don't mind as it is by far my most used device!) and I wanted a nice tablet that could connect to my tv for manga viewing along with gaming so yeah.
Phone is unlocked. I suppose excess inventory makes sense. Guess I picked the right time to want to drop some money, whoo --- Sir Chris Doom The Kanto Saga - Animated Series - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hH4wNFCrLM ... Copied to Clipboard!

The phones and tablets only cost about 1/10th the cost to make that they sell for in the first place. If you paid anything at all they probably broke even on their costs.

Huh, admittedly I don't know much of anything about production costs for these things. I know game consoles will sell at a loss for awhile, not sure what these cost to make, I should look it up for fun.

Samsung had a good trade in offer on my old phone(I've been limping on an S7) so I also pre-ordered an S21 today.
I have a bunch of money I can't use and Disneyland no longer offering annual passports left $1200+ in my budget. --- "First thing that crosses my mind: I didn't get any GameFAQs Karma yesterday." Math Murderer after getting his appendix removed. ... Copied to Clipboard!
