Several options.

1. You can buy any cheap camera accessory from buydig and user that order number to submit a trade-in form. They will send you an email coupon for about $300 that is good towards a new purchase of sony mirrorless camera.

2. You can submit trade-in form for your existing camera equipment (camera or lens or accessories), they will respond with their offer plus an email coupon for about $300 that is good towards a new purchase of sony mirrorless camera.

3. You can buy sony mirrorless camera at full price, then submit trade-in form with either of above option. They will refund the trade-in value plus the bonus of about $300 on the purchase you already made.

Once you submit the trade-in form and they provide their offer, there is a process to ship your equipment, evaluate the condition you initially mentioned in the form etc to confirm the final offer price.

BHphoto edu, A7C $1418, A73 $1498, A74 $2248, seems almost the same if paying by their credit card.

Read a post said a Green T seller accepted offer of $1650 for a 50mm f1.2 GM. Just wondering whether Green T is trustable or I should pay but extra and get it from Buydig. Thanks.

If you google for reviews, seems like some of the issues have to do with returning the item, problem with shipping or delay in shipping (take long time to ship(?)), etc. If you don't plan on returning the item and if you are lucky there is no shipping delay or other issue, then probably fine. You can google and look at the ratio of good and bad reviews to get some idea.
Plus if you want to receive the item at certain time, you can't depend on them accept the offer/price you want before that time if at all. If the item is selling well because of this Sony promotion and/or because of shopping season, may be those stores won't offer cheaper price until the shopping season slow down(?).

Tried order item on front page, and received following email within 5 mins.

Dear Customer, unfortunately we are unable to provide a value to the lens you are trading in. However, you are still eligible for the Sony Bonus trade in. Your one-time use coupon code is CWA***. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns. Thank you for your patronage!

Tried code and it didn't work. Any ideas?

No, my fault I didn't read it carefully. I tried to order Sony 50mm GM lens. Looks like it won't work. Sad. Thank you anyway for your timely reply and detailed instructions. Have a good one.

Thanks OP! Picked up Sony A7C.

Ordered the $8 lens and did trade in and they just gave me a coupon. Will be selling my a7ii with kit lens on eBay/FB instead for better price.

wait so does this not work for the FX3?
I'm trying to find one for BF, anybody know if it would qualify?
I don't see any specific models listed on the webpage, although it mentions "new models listed herein," so I'm hoping against hope, bc I'd assume OP would've included it if it were applicable.
And yes, I know the A7III is very similar to the fx3.
if it's not included in this promo, if anybody has suggestions for where i might find an fx3 deal i'd be very grateful
