Seems a few people out there got rather upset about our plan to trade in scooters on a BMX purchase. This was never the intention & as such would like to re-launch our program.
This promo was aimed more at scooter riders that are moving into BMX and to get them psyched on riding. The comment about getting rid of scooters was more a joke about how many scooters there are at parks here in Australia. We are sorry for any confusion we caused with the way we previously worded this giveaway.
A couple people had a good idea to donate any of the scooters sent in to a charity which we will now do.
Thanks and sorry again for any confusion.
* Purchase any 2011 Colony complete bike between December 1st & January 10th, 2011.
* Post in a rideable scooter, along with a copy of your purchase receipt for your new bike, along with your
full return contact details. All rideable scooters received will be donated to a charity of our choice.
* We will send you a free ‘Welcome to BMX’ package worth over $100.00 retail of Colony products.
* Offer valid to the first 50 scooters received by January 14th, 2011.
* One scooter trade in per bike purchased only.
* Only valid to Australian purchases within Australia.
* Send your scooter to…
