Lower Trade in Price

[donebrasko]

Anyone else disappointed in the trade in value? Last year the trade in was 900. This year it's 650.

I thought that last year's 900 was crazy (and, of course, I jumped at it!). I was hoping for maybe 750 this year. At 650, I'm still thinking about it.

It's been 900 the past few years. I don't know why they took 250 off

I was disappointed as well. Last year it was a no brainer to upgrade. This year I had to think long and hard about it. In the end I decided to do it because the improvements seemed worth it. But it was still disappointing.

I couldn't trade in my previous flip last year because the hinge broke so I wasn't sure what the trade-in value was. That is quite a difference. . $650 is decent but of course could have been better. Is the overall price before trade-in the same as last year? I did order this year and traded in flip5/watch5/buds 2 pro. I got everything for $330 (had some reward $$).

I ended up deciding to go for it as well. Newer processor, 12 GB Ram, 50MP camera, 512GB storage, bigger battery, new unused screen (instead of mine which is now one year old), etc...enough to still make it worth it.

I always buy a broken flip and use the year warranty to get it fixed then trade it in lol.
That's how I got this current flip 5 in January. It wasn't in the best condition but it was covered under warranty for them to fix the screen, so it's in like new condition. I got it to keep until this event. I paid 275 in January

I did purchase a Note 20 on Swappa and used that for trade-in. Didn't get the greatest trade-in value but still came out ahead between the cost compared to trade-in value. I bought the insurance for the flip 5 and of course as things usually work, no issues. I even dropped it numerous times. I now buy the cases with hinge protection and have gone through a few of those but the phone was ok! Did not get the insurance for the flip 6 so will be mindful to take it easy! They ticked me off with the flip 5. There was a deal during the promotion for flip 5 and the monthly charge for Care+ was reduced and then 2x during the almost year I have had the phone, the cost went up.

I got a notification earlier to expect a Samsung order on 7/20. Checked the app and does not show either of my orders as shipping as of yet and cancel button still there.
