You\u2019ve got Black Friday, then Cyber Monday, the lots of last-minute Christmas sales. Next there are the after-Christmas deals as retailers unload their excess inventory. There\u2019s Boxing Day in the UK. In the USA the sales shift into high gear as soon as the holidays end, especially for high-tech gadgets and electronics. One of the most sought-after items is the Amazon Kindle. But now, if you want a top-of-the-line Kindle Oasis, and you act soon, you can get one at a dramatic 25 percent discount. How the Deal Works This is a limited time promotion. If you do a trade-in, it needs to be completed by December 28th, 2018. The bonus 25% discount deal will expire February 28th, 2019. The bonus 25% savings can be used only toward the purchase of qualifying Kindle e-readers that are shipped and sold by Amazon Digital Services. You cannot apply the 25% discount to buy a used Kindle, or to buy from dealers other than Amazon. You cannot combine it with any other offers, and you can only use the discount once. But if you want to combine a balance you have on an Amazon.com Gift Card to help pay for the new device, that\u2019s permitted. That also means that if you do a trade-in and get an Amazon Gift Card for the value of the trade-in, you can apply that to your Kindle purchase. The 25% promotional discount toward a new Kindle pertains to all eligible Kindle trade-ins. Here\u2019s a Theoretical Example Here\u2019s an example of how that could work: Let\u2019s say you trade in your old Kindle and are given a $50 Gift Card in exchange. (By the way, most trade-ins will be accepted and exchanged for value of between five bucks and about $70 bucks). Next, you take advantage of the 25% discount by picking out a Kindle and putting it into your Amazon shopping cart. The discount will be automatically applied to your purchase at checkout. You can use the qualifying discount to buy a basic Kindle, a Kindle Paperwhite, a Kindle Voyage, a Kindle Oasis, or even a Kindle for Kids Bundle. Let\u2019s say you pick a Kindle Oasis with a list price of $249.99. The discount of 25% would knock what you owe down to around $187. In our example, of a $50 Gift Card for the trade-in, the final price tag would be $187 minus the $50 if you use the gift card. The bottom line is that would mean you snagged an Oasis worth about $250 for $187 minus $50, or only about $137. That\u2019s a great savings. How Some Consumers are Taking Full Advantage There are also reports of consumer who trade in old Kindles that don\u2019t even work any more. They don\u2019t get paid much for the trade-in, but once the trade is approved they buy themselves a brand new Kindle, taking advantage of the huge 25% discount. Some people say they even go to yard sales, eBay, or flea markets to buy a really cheap Kindle. Then they trade in and use the 25% discount to still come out way ahead in the transaction with a significant amount of net, bottom-line savings.
