Trade-In or Cash Out. It's your choice!

Musician's Friend has chosen TICO (Trade-In Cash Out), an independent used musical instrument dealer, to provide a trade-in solution for you, our valued Musician's Friend customer. TICO will purchase your gear either for a Musician's Friend store credit or cash. TICO then re-sells the equipment through a variety of online channels independent of Musician's Friend.

• Free Price Quotes on your used gear that had an original retail of $249 and up

But can't I get more if I sell it on my own?

Our customers often ask "Can't I get more if I sell my gear on my own?" The short answer is that you probably can. You have several options including selling to a friend, ebay, craigslist, etc. However, friends may not need exactly what you have for sale or have the cash to purchase immediately available, eBay involves fees both through eBay and Paypal and there may be a lot of "tire-kickers" that can waste your time on craigslist.
