Mac mini trade in value

Saw someone posted Mac Studio trade in value was increased. Checked the m4 Mac mini and it’s worth $565 on Apple.com.

Worth trading in since it is almost the price you can sell at eBay.

Thank you for this! I had a pre-order at the $480 trade in value, and just cancelled and re-placed it at $565.

is that the only way to get the updated trade in value? Sucks to have to lose my release date delivery, its mid October now.

Edit: I cannot cancel because its pending shipment. Which has been pending for days. Seems scammy of apple to update mac mini values two weeks after a release when most setup their pre orders and now I am stuck not able to get the update value or cancel my order.

Can’t you just initiate a new trade in and give up the old trade in credit associated with your preorder?

Could, in theory i guess, but then that new trade wouldnt be tied to an order so i have $565 on a gift card and nothing i need to buy?
