If you wanted the 256GB model of the Pixel Tablet, or the Pixel Tablet with the dock, Google was allowing you to trade in one of the eligible iPad models and get $399 discounted from the price. Why did I write that in the past tense? Originally, the deal was supposed to last until May 20th but it was quickly canceled by Google because enterprising Pixel Tablet buyers were turning to eBay and other online stores, picking up the sixth-gen iPad for extremely low prices, and then shipping it to Google in exchange for a free Pixel Tablet.
Google was offering $399 for this tablet as a trade for a new Pixel Tablet last week; the company now will give you $75
Some Redditors who traded in an older iPad for a Pixel Tablet were concerned that by ending the deal so quickly, Google wouldn’t live up to its terms. But in a statement, the company said, “Google will honor the original trade-in price for people who bought the Pixel Tablet when the offer was still active.” So as long as you committed to the deal before Google pulled it, you should expect to receive your free Pixel Tablet.
