Winter Trade in Program!

The thing is, there is no requirement about the condition of the product that Emo buys back. Based on a bell curve of conditions, that's how much they can offer and still remain profitable.

If your trade in falls in the lower part of the curve, then you're probably better off trading it in because no private party is going to buy it if you're honest about the condition. And if your trade falls in the higher part of the curve then you're better off selling it privately. Like Vincent said, at least there is the option.

A simple scratch or defect could be a huge deal for an eBay auction. So yeah....

You rarely see gear being sold that's not in pretty darn good shape - because otherwise it won't fetch much.

This is great. I'll trade in my two gen. 1 XPA-2s for two new gen. 3 XPA-2s with balanced modules.
No, wait. No balanced modules yet? I guess I'll just have to wait until next year.
