After selecting your device, Amazon will ask a few qualifying questions about its condition to provide an accurate appraisal. It may ask whether the device powers on and holds a charge, if all accessories are included, and whether there are any cracks or defects. You’ll also need to confirm the overall condition of the device.
Be as honest and accurate as possible, because Amazon’s inspectors will verify your answers. If the condition doesn’t match your description, Amazon will adjust the trade-in offer.
Once you’ve answered everything and clicked the appraisal button, you’ll receive an offer to review and accept.

When I tried this process with an old Fire TV Cube, Amazon offered me a $3 gift card and a 20% trade-in rebate toward my next Fire Tablet purchase. The offer applies if I send in the device by Jan. 18, 2026, and Amazon verifies its condition. I was also offered $20 for an Amazon Fire Kids Tablet, plus another 20% rebate.
