What is the Trade-In Special?
The Trade-In Special is exactly what it sounds like. You send us one old instrument as a trade-in, and you'll get a discount on one new instrument of your choice. If you have lots of old instruments you don't want anymore, send them in and you'll get lots of new ones that you do want at a discounted price.
Can I Get a Different Instrument?
Most definitely. You send us any old instrument, in any condition, and you can have your choice of any new hand instrument at the discounted price. You can trade old explorers for scalers, or you can trade broken mirrors for restorative instruments. The type of old instrument you send in makes no difference to us, just let us know what new instruments you want.
Can I Send Another Brand of Instrument?
Yes. We can accept any other manufacturers' instruments for the Trade-In Special. You can trade in Goldman instruments as well, if you wish.
Are These Refurbished Instruments?
No. All of the instruments you get from our Trade-In Special are entirely brand-new instruments, manufactured by us in our Suburban Chicago facility. You also get the benefit of our New Instrument Guarantee (UPDATE LINK).
What Do You Do With The Old Ones?
We send them off to be processed and recycled into more useful products.
Pricing and Order Information
