This is probably the weakest Kindle sale that I’ve ever posted about; I think Amazon must be running out of ideas at this point.
They’re now advertising a deal where you can get a whopping 10% off the new Kindle Paperwhite when buying 2 at the same time.
Wow. A whole 10% off. That’s really something.
And you have to buy 2 to get that massive discount!
Wait? Wasn’t the Kindle Paperwhite just recently on sale for $99, you ask?
Yes, it was. And earlier in the year it was on sale for $89.
So let’s get this straight. If you buy two 8GB Kindle Paperwhites for $129 each, that’s a savings of $25.99 for the two, so that’s really only $13 off each Kindle, when just last month the Paperwhite was $30 off for one. Yeah, this is a pretty weak deal.
The savings work out greater for the 32GB models with cellular wireless, but even at $249 each it only adds up to $50 off for the two. That’s still not as much off as a typical sale.
The “deal” runs through the end of April. That’s if they don’t sell out from everybody jumping at this major sale (what, too much sarcasm for one post?).
I think offerup has the best prices. I just bought a Kindle paperwhite 4 brand new sealed for $70. Seriously you can find some ridiculous deals there as the majority of people are desperate for quick cash. Just check out the seller reviews to make sure they’re legit and you should be fine.
Here’s what I think. I got a ne one that came out around Christmas. I turned my old one in & got my new one for I think like $60. Plus we are Prime members. Not sure if that helped or not.
