The Kindle Scribe is on sale today for 28% off of its normal price of $389.99 (32GB). I've been waiting for the price to drop for now, so I pulled the trigger. You can also make this even slicker by trading In an old kindle device for an additional 20% off. I bought an old kindle off of eBay for cheap, and then traded it in for the additional 20%.

My final price was about $215, as I got 20% off, and got a $20 gift card for the old kindle I traded in. Hopefully someone else can benefit as well.

Edit: it seems that this discount is account specific, so it has been changed to YMMV.

It's showing up as 389.99 for me using the above link, is there anything else that needs to be done to get the 28% discount?

Also don't see a discount, just the regular 20% for trade in. It was on sale end of March and various times in April. So those still wanting one, your time will come.

How does it compare with remarkable? I am sure it was discussed before in other threads. One turn off was, I remember remarkable needed monthly service fee of some sort so did not go with it, not seeing this one needs any service? Appreciate inputs.

I can't speak for personal experience, but all the research I've done seems to say overall the Scribe is better, but the remarkable does have a higher build quality and premium feel

I saw the 28% off on the Kindle Scribe for both of my accounts (Prime and not Prime) for about half an hour this morning. Then the price changed back to retail for no reason! It's only a deal at discount price plus 20% trade-in. That's what I am trying to get. No more instant coupon for trade-in so I must time my trade-in accordingly.

(This deal is dead-5/8/24) BTW, Kindle Scribe 16GB version is on sale for $239.99 from QVC,com. New user gets $20 off with code WELCOMEQ20. May also get 2% cash rebate from rebates URL.
