How are they determining "no more than five years old" on trade-ins? Are they looking at manufactured date? What if I bought a 2017 model laptop new in 2019, would that qualify?

Saddens me that this only supports 16gb of ram. Looking to replace my travel laptop and Dell seems to have done away with having a numeric keypad on their Inspiron line for anything new, so this deal got me super excited. Being stuck at 16gb ram kills it for me, unfortunately. Everything else was looking awesome.

I would assume it is based on the manufactured date. That's technically how old it is and how old the tech inside of it is.

I see they have a $300 trade in option. Is there any reason I couldn't just buy a cheap $129 laptop and trade in?

That's my plan. As mentioned above, they'll likely look at manufactured date so confirm that, but you can find a qualifying refurb for well under a hundred bucks.

Any links on where to buy a refurb under $100 that would qualify?

Can we stop with posting the Costco trade-in offer on the title which misleads people into thinking the laptop is cheaper than it is?

There are so few people who would have a laptop that qualifies AND they would want to part with, that it becomes irrelevant.

Not quite understanding your point. This deal is

1. This laptop is on sale for $650, which is $200 off the regular price.

2. If you've got a qualifying trade-in (basically, any undamaged laptop less than five years old), then you can additionally get a rebate in the form of a $200 Costco Card.

Where is the misrepresentation?

Because the title does not state the 5 year old requirement (that you so nicely put in parentheses). How many people do you know have a laptop laying around less than 5 years old that they value less than 200?

Microcenter usually has open box laptops for under $100, like the following Asus laptop that can be found in certain stores for $60.
