If you purchased a Nexus 7 from Google Play on or after October 14, you need to read this

Google is currently offering a price protection on the Nexus 7 tablet. This will apply to those who purchased a 16GB Nexus 7 from Google Play on or after October 14. According to the details coming from the Google Support pages;

“Nexus 7 (16GB version only) purchases from Devices on Google Play are currently eligible for Price Protection if the purchase was made on or after October 14, 2012. If your purchase is eligible, we’ll refund the difference in price within 14 days of your request.”

That being said, those who fall into this category will need to file a request which can be done by clicking this link.

Otherwise, just as a general rule, Google does always have a price protection policy in effect. The details are as follows;

“If we reduce the price of a device on Google Play, we’ll refund the difference in price if your purchase occurred within 15 days of said price reduction. To be eligible, requests for a price protection refund must be submitted within 15 days of the price reduction occurring.”
