Foresight Sports QUADMAX Released

[delaloi]

Listen I'm not interested in trading in my Quad at that price either. But before we get all outraged at Foresight (who have a pretty price-insensitive clientele), how much should they be charging me to trade in my 5 year old, $17,000 machine for a brand-new, upgraded one?

Like, there is no way on earth it's going to be $500 or $1000. These things have held their value well, but the depreciation on your unit was more than that the day you took it home. It would be more than that just to trade it for a new identical GC Quad. Unless they were planning to cut the price point of the MAX to below the Quad -- which would make Quad owners even more unhappy -- there is no way the upgrade trade could be less than 5 grand at the bare minimum.

You can buy a swing speed monitor for $100 on Amazon

IMO for a trade of this nature - a few minor upgrades, but admittedly a new unit, I don't know what that was but at $2500 or less I likely would have been thinking about it. Any more does not make sense given my Quad is fully functional and doing everything I need it to do. Just saying that $8K makes no sense to me at all. Anyway, I am over it - time to hit some golf balls.

- must have been grumpy last night......

Has anyone had to get their Quad repaired out of warranty and can share general costs? My Quad was one of the first ones at launch and so I am thinking of “justifying” the upgrade by getting a new unit under warranty with the very incremental benefits, though the swing speed stuff and customized tiles are certainly nice to haves.

I bough a broken unit a couple years ago and I believe it had I have 2 cameras replaced plus calibration which cost around $1,300 if I remember correctly.
