Might help to read the thread and understand the story. "Oldest trick in the book" doesn't apply if you already have a cash deal, and the offer to purchase your vehicle is negotiated later, and separately. It is not like the price of the new vehicle went up, which was your assumption.

Just out of curiosity, has anyone ever received such an offer and how did it work out for you?

Getting postcard/letter like that, are you kidding me.
I've got them from all dealers (BMW and non BMW), saying my BMW car is in high demand, I've got three BMWs so I guess I receive them all the time. The funny thing was, I went to test drive 328i (4-cy twin turbos) last summer but really eyeing on 335is since this one will be discontinued in 2013. So I asked my CA about trade in value on my 335xi coupe, he said since I had a fender bender my 335xi would goes straight to auction not staying in their fleet of vehicles, can't be CPOed and the price was way lower than I can afford. Then last month I got a postcard from GM of the same dealer saying my 335xi is in high demand, not even funny....
