Trade-in Program #1

Back at the end of October, RadioShack launched an online electronics trade-in program in collaboration with CExchange. The principle is pretty simple. You first go to the Trade-in Program page of RadioShack's website and register or log-on. You then select the product that you want to trade-in. You are asked whether the machine is 'fully functional' and whether or not you will also be trading-in the charger. You then have to rate the condition of the machine - is it broken, is there evidence of heavy wear, is there evidence of light wear, or is it 'cosmetically excellent'. Once you've answered these questions, CExchange quotes you a price. If you're happy, you get to print off a pre-paid shipping label, box-up the product, and send it off [only in the US, as you would expect]. Then, some two weeks later you receive a voucher which can be redeemed either online or in a RadioShack store. It's not an altogether new idea, but sounds simple and efficient. More like this please.
