I'm confused. Have bought several Kindles from Amazon before. I don't see this "Upgrade Offer" button to click?

I believe this deal includes "20% trade-in" promo. You have to trade your old Kindle device to get 20% off new device. Make sure you send the old one to Amazon if you are doing trade-in.

I'm just confused by this:"Recycling your old device is optional and not required to take advantage of this offer."

I believe this is a different offer, though I can't find it through Google searches (I found similar offers for Echo though). But you're right that using the standard trade-in 20% off offer gets you the same price. Well, technically less because you get what your device is worth too. But you'd have to give up your device, so if there's someone that wants a Kindle (there's an SD post for all of them) without trading theirs in, they'd want to see the "Upgrade Offer." Though, you can trade-in any Amazon device to get the 20%, usually.

I believe this is an offer that doesn't require a trade (based only on reading these terms), but for a very select group of people. Yangzi is correct that if you want the price, you can get it by trading something in, plus you'll also get what the device is worth. It can be any Amazon device.

It's a targeted offer. The terms have a list of eligible devices you need to have registered to your account but not everyone with those devices will get this offer.

How is the Colorsoft compared to the Kindle Paperwhite for reading black text? Does black text look washed out on the Colorsoft?

From what I have read is that if you are not really interested in having color, the regular paper white has better contrast since the color one has an extra film layer that shows the color but does degrade quality a little.

Recieved this offer back in Nov. After the offer and 20% trade in, the subtotal before tax is 122.39.

If you read books with less images and more texts, then you'd want to go with Paperwhite. The black texts in Colorsoft don't look as crisp as they do in Kindle/Paperwhite.

I had the GETKINDLE15 for my account that stacked with the trade in 20%. Is this another separate offer? Doesn't show for me.

I checked both Amazon app and Amazon website on PC. I don't have the "upgrade offer" in the OP.

The kids version is $175.99 with the offer and comes with a 2 year warranty and case. I already ordered this with the walnut case and my upgrade seems to be used though.

Isn't this the typical price?? Every time I've looked at the kindles, they have a trade in offer. Christmas Eve they had the trade in offer on top of the sale price.
