This'll be my first time doing so, and I'll be sending in a 2 in 1 dell as well. Looks like they use the BIOS date.

https://costcotradein.com/tradein...ort#faq-21

Not sure how old your Trade-in device is or what processor it has? We have some handy tips to help you find this information below. Simply select your Trade-in device's operating system and follow the steps:
Windows Laptop
If your Trade-in unit is a Windows Laptop, follow these steps:
Press the Windows key on your keyboard
Start typing System
Select System Information.
Here you will see the BIOS date, which shows the age of your laptop, as well as the Processor.
If the Windows key is not available on your keyboard, simply right-click the Windows icon located on the bottom-left corner of your screen using your mouse and choose System

It's a little bit confusing, but the page you checked are for the current products that have the trade-in promotion. The laptop requirements that qualify for trade-in are more generalized. Please check the link below instead.

I stay away from any laptop with recognized hinge issues. I've bought two over the past few years that were used carefully, even left open on a desk for 95% of usage just to avoid potential hinge issues, yet all it took was one fateful open/close to break the weak hinge connections. On the other hand, I have a 6 year old Dell 5000 series 2 in 1 that hasnt been babied at all, and not a single issue, with no reports of wide spread hnge issues either. Take the warnings as real, or you might be the next person commenting on these threads about it.

FWIW...I bought overpriced accident/damage protection warranties from the manufacturers before my 1 year original warranty was up, and used that to fix the hinge and immediately sold them after and replaced with laptops that didn't have the issue. Manufacturers (particularly Dell and Lenovo, even bought through Costco) will NOT honor a warranty repair for hinge issues, always claiming it as accident damage and not a manufacturer defect.

Are you sure that's what they do? I have a receipt that shows my laptop was purchased 11/29/2015, so just under 7 years. Mfg date may show its over the 7 years. If I include receipt in my mail-in return I wonder if it would "qualify"
Definitely not sure, I just assume because it would be really easy to look up on their end but maybe they don't care that much so it's kind of the honor system. Wouldn't surprise me as it's Costco.

Yes but 8gb ram would cost about additional $70?
Few more differences than just simply RAM. The first link below is the Walmart version's spec. The Costco version adds the OLED screen, stylus, the 8gb additional RAM, and 1 year premium care (which is onsite repair), and 1-2 more years extended warranty (2 years if you use your Costco Visa).

How crazy Smilie Literally almost 7 years on the dot!

They go by bios date, so if that's 10/12/2015, then I would give them a call and get clarification on this one.
