Canon loyalty program - My G11 is worth What?!?!?

I had heard of the Canon loyalty program whereby you trade-in your current camera, working or not, for a credit towards purchasing a refurbished Canon camera.

Out of curiosity I called today to see about trading in my G11 with a non-functioning rear control ring and major dust inside of lens towards a refurb-G12. I was told that I would be allowed to buy a refurb G12, after allowing for my G11 trade-in, for, "about $360". NEW G12's are in-stock and currently available for $379, in effect telling me that my G11 was merely worth $19 towards a refurb! The non-value of the CLP offer was never reflected in the voice of the person helping me on the other end of the line.
Heavy sigh.
