No thanks. My 7C is worth more than $50 to me! Even if it is that antiquated, oh-so-yesterday 72mhz system. :D

That is not enough $ to trade in a perfectly good working radio. If you have a piece of junk and plan to go 2.4 it is ok but not enough for me to get excited about.

If it was cash that would be one thing but just a certficate that you could likely only redeem by mailing into Tower its not worth the hassle.
Dont get me wrong I do like Tower and I purchase from them quite a bit but the last time I got a Futaba certficate it was a hassel to redeem.

RE: Futaba Trade in

Where do you you see $50.00 for the 7C 2.4? what it says there is BUY a 7C, give them what ever junk 72mhz system (Like an old 4 channel radio, any brand) and you'll get $50.00.

Doug.

P.S. an example will be, if I was to buy a 12 channel radio right now, I will give them my old Spektrum LP5DSM radio and I'll get $150.00 for it.

DOUG,
what it SAYS is......

If I buy a new 6XE system.......

trade in a 27,53/50 72MHz system......

they will give me a Certificait Value (anotherwords a coupon) worth $25.00 off of the price of the 6XE system......

I will get to send my old trade in system at my expence!

They will issue no $.

RE: Futaba Trade in

For me coupons or certificate are all fine, it's not like I will never buy from them again. [sm=wink_smile.gif]

Again, for me if I was to get the 12 channel radio, I'll give them a junk radio for $150.00 certificate is good.
