Apple officially announces iPad trade-in offer

Apple today announced a trade-in promotion offer that would give a minimum Rs 4,000 off if users trade-in their old tablets or notebook computer. BGR India had exclusively reported about this offer earlier in the week and like we reported, the offer is valid on all models of the iPad mini and the 16GB model of iPad with Retina Display. The tablet in exchange should be less than two years old and buyers will get an additional discount if they bring an old iPad. Read on for a list of devices and suggested exchange price, which we had exclusively reported earlier.



Buyers will get back Rs 4,000 when they exchange a Samsung Galaxy Tab 1, Galaxy Tab 2, Samsung Galaxy Tab 620, Samsung Galaxy Note N8000, Samsung Galaxy Tab 5100, Blackberry PlayBook, a Karbonn tablet and the iPad 1 Wi-Fi. You will also get Rs 5,500 for an iPad 1 3G+Wi-Fi, Rs 7,000 for an iPad 2 Wi-Fi, Rs 9,000 for an iPad 2 3G+Wi-Fi, Rs 9,500 for an iPad 3 Wi-Fi and Rs 11,500 for an iPad 3 Wi-Fi+3G.

Earlier, Apple had announced a similar buyback scheme for the iPhone 4 that proved to be extremely successful with reports claiming Apple’s sales grew 400 percent in India after the offer was introduced.
