Anyone thinking of doing a 'trade-in' on anything?

It's in pristine condition. We shall see what the offer comes back as. I'm confident it will be $95 or close to it. Fingers crossed.

Good luck. Will be curious what they give you for it.

Well, you see, I just purchased it used here in Peru.

Peruvians are not great readers - it's not a big pastime as it is in other countries, perhaps because this is a third-world country.

I really like the DX-G, but I'm just not certain (at this point, anyway) exactly how much I like it; that is, whether to keep it or invest in something new.

One problem is that it will take more than a week to get to the U.S., which by that time will void the price. Also, I will have to pay for the cost of the shipping, although if I were in the U.S. the shipping would be free.

So, I may just wait until I come to the U.S. during Christmas. By that time, though, the price may be drastically less than what it is now.
