    Blue Jumper Looking for ideas . . . . .

    We are trying to get out of our Empower frames we got from Aspex. Is anyone else in our position? If you are, what are your thoughts on dumping the frames?

    As always, y'all are the best. Any help is greatly appreciated. I hope you're having fun and making money!!
    Days where my gratitude exceed my expectations are very good days!

    Will they let you exchange them for regular aspex frames? Seem to recall they were willing to accept old aspex in exchange for the empowers to begin with. good luck with that.

    Why do you want to dump them are they not selling or are there other problems with them? It sounds like neat technology

    Did you have to enter into an "agreement" when you signed up?

    I have heard that they are not accepting returns. Maybe they realize the failure (in my opinion) of the product and would rather you get burned instead of them?

    What are the frames like?

    Can you have a FIRE SALE............CLEARANCE..............LAST CALL SALE?

    Can't you just sell the frames off the board without the empower lens? I know they aren't the most attractive frames. I'm not sure though if there is any recouping your original money though.

    I want to thank y'all for your advice. It is a cool idea, but they forgot to work the kinks out before going to market. We'll probably just put them on the board and tell them to come get their display. Thanks again for your ideas and advice.
