Humminbird needs to offer trade-ins.

[Cane Pole]

These SI units costs $$. Humminbird refurbished units costs $$. If Humminbird sells these "refurb units, then they oughta offer trade in on SI refurb units. I be glad to be the first trade in customer. I got a 797, like to trade in on 997 refurb.

Ain't room on my boat for a 1197.

Yep, and they need to come up with Humminbird Financing :p

I need to go about 20 years on a 1197

It is a neat idea to take trade-ins on these units when buying a newer/better model. The problem I see is a business owner may only be able to offer 30% or so of the retail price on trade-in. He would have to refurbish the unit and try to sell it for 60% or so of retail to keep from losing his butt in the deal and stay competitive with the open market.

they use to take trade ins up till about five years ago. i traded an old one for a matrix 35 for about $140 difference saved about $300 john
