Will quote credits ever go back to their great prices? I have a bit to sell but the low offerings are killing me.

If anything I anticipate prices generally to continue to trend downward.

Yep, I bit the bullet and went ahead and mailed my shipment in... probably $75-100 less than if I had sent them last fall. They're still the best value for trade-ins that I know of. I expect another "update" later this yr, hopefully not before summer when I'll send my last (sniff) remaining DVD's.

edit: Got my credit today, all accepted.

Why is the quote machine offline until further notice? I've been checking a few times and it has never been on. Are they shutting it down?

It certainly appears that way. Here's another thread where it was reported the quote machine was down. I quit checking and I don't think it's ever come back up.

I don't think it'll be up again. Just a guess.
