Many people have cellular phones with data, so a 3G Kindle isn't as important as it was several years ago. I'm thinking that if the buyer has to hold certain models longer in the warehouse before they re-sell, then they would not be inclined to pay as much as for items they can re-sell more quickly. That's just a guess....
Very interesting hypothesis that does make sense. I think maybe there's an automatic algorithm to calculate the trade-in value based on the demand and supply and it automatically updates based on real-time info (if not why would the value change from day-to-day?)!
