To me it's the same as buying a car ... it's not how much trade they will give me.
Rather what the net $$ is that I will be paying!
A good trade value can soon be diminished with a high retail price on the machine you are purchasing.
Also, what else is included .... extra feet? accessories? extension table? set in table? lessons? service?
So often people talk about the $ ... but we have no clue as to what the inclusions are, so whether it;s a good deal, is really not known.
