I have a second-gen and was offered $50 off a new one + $15 kindle store credit.


FTA:

> For customers with Kindle (1st Generation), Amazon is offering a free Kindle Oasis (10th Generation) device and cover.

> Customers with Kindle (1st and 2nd Generation), Kindle DX (2nd Generation), and Kindle Keyboard (3rd Generation) can receive $70 off a new Kindle Paperwhite or Kindle Oasis, plus $25 in ebook credits.

> Customers with Kindle Touch (4th Generation), Kindle Paperwhite (5th Generation, 6th Generation, and 7th Generation), Kindle Voyage (7th Generation), and Kindle Oasis (8th Generation) can receive $50 off a new Kindle Paperwhite or Kindle Oasis, plus $15 in ebook credits.

Sounds like you should qualify for the $70 + $25 credits. If you are actually considering it, I would contact Amazon if I were you. Personally I have the Kindle Keyboard and I'm not interested in the credit, I'm still happy with it and it still works fine. But I think it's great that they are offering it.


I was also offered $50 but you have two weeks before the coupon expires. This seems extremely short considering they must have had a ton of time to prepare for the cellular shutdown.

Plus, if you go to their site to buy a new Kindle it says you get $50 + 20% off if you trade in your old Kindle. Customer service told me I can't combine offers (plus trade in takes a couple weeks anyway) so it seems the $50 offer is worse than what normal customers get anyway.
