Trade in program? Why?

[Motor On]

The advertisement money is enough to support this site alone it's 10% off radar busters Which is 50... or get 80 == 30bucks not 20 difference

I was adding in his complaints about having to ship in his trade in. And different detectors have different prices, so 10% isn't always $50 just like when the rebate used to be tiered for different detectors getting smaller chunks. And the site's history has had some legal battles fought, and servers have issues etc and in a small forum in a niche community advertising isn't what it would be on other large sites, so helping out with funding RD.net and radarbusters (when I need something that they stock) isn't something I've got an issue with, but that's me.

Right but if you do the rebate and you've got a detector like a cobra or whistler you spent $80, and you're trading it in, now you have more justification for a new one, remember alot of these people are ones that bought Cobras in the first place. And if Escort offered a sale then everyone would take them up on it, with the rebates, a much smaller portion of people would go through the effort, so more profit.

I say screw Escort, talk to Roy, order from radarbusters and support the site so we can keep chatting about this. The Extra <$20 difference (of and the savings are up front) is worth it for all the education you get on using the devices properly. Not to mention things like Veil and Blinders and laser shield are also available here.

30 bucks difference doesn't mean 30 bucks savings.
Even if you have an old RD it still has a value, plus shipping to Escort, plus gas to get to post office.

50 is 10% of 500.00 like in this case he's talking about a 500 Rd so yes 50 is always %10 of 500

Sounds like the type of customer who just loved looking for a pissing match. They are usually the type who end up eating 10x more in customer service complaints than you'll ever make back in sales, and demand the biggest discounts from my reps on the phone. We'd mark their files "NFD" (no further discounts). If a mail in rebate program weeds out one customer service headache out of the 99 pleasant people to deal with its worth it and improved margins.


Also... took me a whole 1 minute to put my box in the mail. This basically boils down to someone who sounds like they are "too good" for all that. Fine --- pay more!
