I just learned about Axioms trade up program, this is an awesome program...great idea! (not sure if it is new or not?)
Have you ever considered upgrading but did not want to go through the hassle of selling the Axioms you have?
THIS PROGRAM IS FOR YOU!!
Due to numerous requests for such a hassle free service, Axiom is launching a new pilot program. The Axiom Trade-Up program is being launched for a limited number of transactions. Why are we launching this only on the message boards? Because it gives loyal Axiomites the opportunity to see how the Trade-Up program works and give us feedback on the process. But most of all, it gives all of you Axiom Board members the opportunity to have a little fun and discover how much your “upgraditis” will cost you in actual dollars.
What will Axiom be doing with all of the Trade-Up items? Our intention is to launch an Axiom Refurb store which will offer these refurbished speakers at reasonable prices with a full warranty.
Here is how it works. Click the Trade-Up link at the bottom of this post. This will take you to our new Trade-Up screen. If you want the program rules and regulations, click the learn more about the Trade-Up Program link on the Trade-Up page.
STEP 1 – List your trade-in items
From the Select Product to be Traded In drop-down menu, pick the Axiom products you would like to trade in. Although Axiom will want to have serial numbers for actual transactions, for the purpose of having fun you can leave the serial number blank. Be sure, however, to estimate the approximate age of your product from the Select Product Age drop-down menu.
Add each of the products you wish to trade up to your trade-up list. Notice that the trade-up list total includes a field that is called Purchase Required to Achieve Full Trade-Up Value. This is the total amount you would have to spend on new product(s) to take full advantage of the trade-in value of your existing Axiom products. Also, keep an eye on the Actual Value per Shopping Cart Below. If you have not met the Purchase Required to Achieve Full Trade-Up Value, the actual value of your trade up may be less than the Full Trade-Up Value. You may want to remove any Trade-Up items that are not giving you the full trade-up value and save them for a later Trade-Up transaction.
STEP 2 – Go shopping
When you have completed your Trade-Up List, click the Keep Shopping button just above your shopping cart and go shopping. Any items that were already in you cart will still be there. These can be removed by clicking the Remove button. You will notice that while you are shopping on the Axiom website the small Trade-Up link will be in the header of each page. You can click on this at any time to go back to the Trade-Up Program page.
Keep in mind that Factory Outlet, Sherwood Newcastle Electronics and Fun Store items are not eligible for trade-up discounts.
When you have completed your shopping, you can go back to the Trade-Up program page from the link in the header or the link in your cart at check out. Your Shopping Cart order will show the Trade-Up discount.
STEP 3 – Check out
Go to the check out and process your order as you usually would. Notice that the trade-up value has been subtracted from your order. Please be sure to click the Learn More link to get the Trade-Up return address.
