So Samsung is “offering” Black Friday deals. Before you add a trade in the price is 1349 right? The website says 1349 before eligible trade in. Add a s23 ultra or z fold 4 and it brings it down to 599. They “value” those phones at 1000. How does 1349-1000= 599? The math ain’t mathing.
Just checked. The app says has the price of the Fold 5 slashed to $1,349 as the pricing BEFORE trade in.
The drop-down for the trade in for a Fold 4 shows is $1k. Thens you select to trade it in for the $1k and the price of the phone only drops to $599.
Yeah that’s totally not correct. If that’s the case the price before trade in should show $1,599.
I don’t understand the confusion. 1349 is the promotional pricing before any trade-in. 1599 is the price with a trade-in.
With a trade-in, the promotional price ceases because it’s no longer “before any trade-in”. I’m sure it’s in the t&c somewhere. The phrasing “pricing before trade-in” makes me believe that the price would not be the same with a trade-in.
Is it potentially misleading? Yes.
Is it spelt out to you once you input the necessary information? Also yes.
It’s just another marketing thing.
