$75 credit toward new Sony Reader

redbird · 11-05-2010, 12:40 AM

There's an offer on SonyStyle.com -- trade in any e-reader and get a $75 credit toward a new Sony Reader. I think the offer goes through the end of the year.

Could you provide a link?

I went to sonystyle.com and couldn't find any mention of the offer......perhaps I was looking in the wrong page?

Thanks, nightbird!

With the new Sony readers, that might be too hard to resist... Esp if their prices come down a bit.

He probably left out the important phrase, about TRADING IN "any brand eReader and get $75 credit towards a new Sony Reader."

So, am I reading this right? I could take the Jetbook Lite I got cheap, send it in, and get the Sony Reader then for approximately $150? Geeze, time to start scouring ebay for cheap readers if that is true!

It does say "any brand," and not "any model from Sony."

Although I can't speak for Sony, my understanding is the same as yours.

It also doesn't say if it's non-working or non-eInk.

The link I saw has a form that you must fill, apparently, to calculate the value of your old reader, so no, it doesn't look like they will trade in $75 for ANY reader. $75 is probably the maximum value, but it can even go down to zero, it says so on the page.

crud, and I have a semi-broke reb1100 I was going to give them

paulak39 · 11-05-2010, 10:42 AM

I decided to take advantage of this offer, and am trading in my PRS-300. According to their message to me, I'll receive a $75 certificate toward a new Sony reader. If, instead, I want a Sony gift card, the trade-in value is only $9. Since I already have a gift card from Sony from a previous offer, I'm thinking of getting a PRS-350 in place of the 300.

Scott_T · 11-05-2010, 10:46 AM

just for fun I tried to see what they'd give me and reb wasnt listed so I put other and other and non functional, etc and it gave me $75 too

darknessangel · 11-05-2010, 11:13 AM

Bah, humbug! I like my prs-505. I don't need those touchscreens or wifis or 3Gs >_>

mikaelalind · 11-05-2010, 12:00 PM

Out of curiosity, does anyone know if you can send in more than one reader?

redbird · 11-05-2010, 12:10 PM

I filled out the form with one that wasn't functioning and it still came back with the $75 credit toward a new Sony Reader. Like paulak39 said, it also came up with a giftcard amount -- $0.
