Farther Day Sale on Upgrade?

Post by cincinnati10 »

I attempted to order the 500 to 520 upgrade. The computer would not give me any discount. Are the upgrades not included in the sale? Has anyone noticed if they are ever on sale?

Father's Day Sale

Post by dusty »

Yes, the upgrade kits are sales items from time to time. I've never specifically noticed the 500 to 520 since I started with a 510 but I feel certain it has been.

The time period for the Father's Day sale has expired, though it was extended 'til I believe the 9th of July. If you are trying to order on line, the online software may not include the time extension. I would call.

The Father's Day Catalog states something to the effect of "Nearly everything in the catalog is on sale".

Give it a go. No harm trying.

There was a special on it. It was the weekly special on 5/20 via e-mail. I thing there may have been another weekly special on this upgrade posted about a week ago on the "Personalized Owner's home page".

Suggest you try again by phone before midnight EDT tomorrow- telling them your sad story - see what happens! Best Wishes!

Here is what the e-mail said:
---------------------------------------------------
This Week Only!

Offer ends Midnight, May 19th
