Reference?
I've tried to follow what happens in the trade-in program since the beginning and I've not seen any indication that it was closed. I've kept my Icarus because the trade-in process was fuzzy at best but I'm about to send some right now as there's been report of progress (one user with a reply from Avalon)...
So you didint want to take a risk, yet you want Avalon at funny price ? I doubt they will honour your order.
