Amazon frequently discounts its already-affordable devices, both during Prime Day and throughout the rest of the year. That makes it easy to upgrade whatever current Kindle e-reader, Fire tablet or streaming stick, Echo speaker, or Ring cameras you own with newer-generation tech. But another way to save (even more) money is to trade-in your old Amazon devices to get a bigger price chunk off of your new tech. Here’s how!
How to trade in your old Amazon devices
1. Go to the Amazon trade-in hub (opens in new tab).
2. Click one of the eligible categories: Kindle E-readers, Tablets, Streaming Media Players, Bluetooth Speakers and Headphones, Home Security Devices, Wireless Routers, Cell Phones, or Gaming.
3. Check if you have an eligible device associated with your Amazon account.
4. If none are shown, search for your device by name and see if it’s listed.
5. Click the box next to your eligible device and select Continue.
6. Fill out information on the device’s status for a trade-in value estimate. Also decide in advance if you want the item shipped back to you if Amazon determines that it isn’t in good enough condition for the full trade-in value.
7. Either trade in more items or submit your trade-in.
