Not sure it is worth it
Got the deal. It was slick, thanks. No where else on the internet where you can get $400 for this 2 year old phone. $40 to trade in for a brand new phone, better processor, WiFi chip, next generation. No brainer.

For people that say the A71 5G is better, I have been using it and it sucks, seems like the processor is really slow.
LOL, A71 5G is much better than Pixel 6a...

Did anyone get their old device rejected or returned? How long did it take to receive it back from Google and did they give a tracking number?

I did the Price Match today through chat and they gave me $107.25 back. The Amazon link that I gave was showing $394. Needless to say, I was surprised and happy with the amount. I see now that there is a new deal posted here showing $350 at Amazon, so that may explain it. Anyhow, it's listed as a courtesy refund going back to my credit card.
Google doesn't pricematch if you do a trade-in.

I just received refunds on both pixel 6a phones that I ordered via the price match. They each came to $105.50, so $211 back. Both of my a71 5g phones were received and I'm waiting on the confirmation for the credits. Probably will happen tomorrow since it'll be Monday. Also, I'm LOVING the Pixel after spending the last two years on the a71.

It was chat and it took about ten minutes. Super easy. I'll update on this thread if I get the full $800 for my two a71s. Should know soon.

So far as of this morning, I received the full $400 for one of my a71s. The other should go through without any trouble at some point today, I believe. That means after selling the second pixel 6a and buying a case and screen protectors for the one I'll be using, I should end up profiting around $260. All the while upgrading. Super slick as my a71 battery was getting a bit sketchy after 2 years of extreme usage.

Update: Although I received the full $400 on the trade in, I was also refunded $105.50 via the price match. So the $400 that was refunded via the trade-in came back as $349.99.

Update II: My other a71 was also accepted at the full $400 trade in. I'm now watching my account to see if it only comes back as $349.99 like the previous one. If so, I'll reach out to support to see where the other $100 went on both phones. I'd hope to have that sent to me but either way, I made out with at least $150 in profit for upgrading. Good luck everyone.

I just got done chatting with support and indeed I have $102 in store credit. I'm not sure if it was already there or if they added it during the chat. I'm guessing that it was already there. So I'm not sure if it's best to ask for the price match after receiving the trade in refund? Maybe that's the reason it came back as credit. Not sure. I can just this credit via Google pay though for things I need anyway so it's kind of same as cash.

Supposedly, if the trade in phone is worth more than the phone cost, the extra will be refunded as Google store credit. In your case, the phone price after price match was $350 and the trade in value for the A71 was $400. So, it kind of make sense for you to get two $350 credit card refunds and then ~$100 in Google store credit.

Yes. I guess I should've waited to do the price match after the trade-in was refunded but I'm not complaining by any means.

How did you get it to work?
I talked to 3 different reps but they all said price match isn't eligible for trade-in orders

I used the "contact us" link in the email sent for the phone trade-ins/pixel 6a delivery status. I was very polite and descriptive. I provided both of my order numbers to make it easier for them to navigate. I also provided links with the 6a advertised for $349.99 at Amazon, Best Buy and Target. Had zero issues and kept a thankful tone while in the chat.
