A few days ago Amazon has launched a new program, the kind that it launches occasionally with offers, making a very interesting offer for the spring and the next few months. Amazon offers you money for your old eReader to buy a Kindle. Thus, if what we are really looking for is a basic eReader, the Kindle option is the most attractive, since in addition to renewing our old eReader, we will have the possibility of obtaining the new eReader for a very cheap price, specifically for $ 29. . All this if we talk about Basic Kindle, if we did it from the Kindle Paperwhite, the thing would change but the discount for delivering our old eReader would be the same.
How does this discount for our old eReader work?
The program "renove»From Amazon is that they give you a card worth $ 20 to spend on future orders on Amazon, then we have time to buy the new eReader, so we will also have a discount of 20 dollars, in total about 40 bucks for our old eReader. Although it is true that at the moment it is available in the United States, it is a program that will surely expand in several countries including Spain and even though it is a different currency, the spirit will continue, that is, if a reduction of the 50% for delivering the old eReader, in Spain the same will be done, although being in euros, the new eReader will be a tad more expensive than in the United States.
According to landing page from Amazon, the program accepts eReaders from Kobo, Barnes & Noble, Sony, the Kindle themselves and any other type of eReader, although in this last aspect, they speak of a list of eReaders so if it is not on the list, the offer will not apply.
Opinion
Personally, I think it is a good program and an indication that the eReader is already established in our society, although in some countries it is not yet. As happened with the mobile, not only affordable prices but reaching the point that they give you an eReader by buying something else, are symptoms of the stabilization of the market and the device. The bad thing is that at the moment, the program does not accept tablets, I don't know why, but they are not yet incorporated into it. scrappage schemealthough if they did, they could possibly gain more than they might think they would lose. I hope that Amazon really decides to expand this program to all stores since it is not confirmed yet, but Does anyone doubt this confirmation?
