Lowest price I've found if you're thinking of upgrading the Galaxy Watch. Trading in the 7 gets you $250 off original price, 6 is $225 and it just goes down the older the model. I've been hoping Samsung would replicate the deal from last year but it doesn't look like it will happen.

Editing to add, an employer OR education offer program shaves off another $10, making the price $89.99
Community Reviews
The Galaxy Watch8 40mm is being framed as a modest upgrade best for speed and a brighter screen, but the trade in promo is the real story here. The Watch 7 and even the Watch 4 line are described as feeling much faster in everyday use, with less lag when opening apps and switching screens. The main drawback is the trade in math, which is repeatedly described as confusing because the sale price can disappear at checkout and the effective discount looks far smaller than advertised. The squircle design also draws criticism for looking bulkier and less appealing, making this feel like a limited upgrade unless the pricing works out.

If you haven't upgraded to One UI 8 on it, DONT - it's crippleware which is being pushed out this month starting several weeks ago...
PASS!
Why don't they say if you trade in, you get $100 trade-in value? (instead of $250)

1. Traded a Fitbit versa 2 for a watch 6 44mm for $52.49.
2. Traded that watch 6 for a the watch 7 40mm for $2.60.
3. I already had a watch 6 44mm which I traded for a watch 7 44mm BT unit for $52.49.
Maybe a week or so later the watch 7 44mm lte went on sale so I returned the watch 7 44mm BT and exchanged my watch 6 for that one for $47.48 (cheaper than the prior weeks BT watch).
I sold the 40mm watch 7 on eBay for maybe like $170 or so. I forget.
So now I'm down to just my watch 7 44mm lte for $47.48 right? Well about a month later I got a package I wasn't expecting. It was the watch 7 44mm BT I returned a month ago, but no band. Turns out when I processed the return they only added the band to the return. Not the watch. But they had processed a full refund. So I already was refunded for quite awhile and got my watch back because it technically was not part of the return. Kept it as a spare.
