babies r us trade in event

Rachel
i know i could just call and ask the store but i was wondering if any one knows if when trading in a carseat at babies r us trade in event does the carseat have to have a cover on it? we're pretty strapped on cash and i was hoping to sell the cover on our old chicco on ebay and use that money towards a new seat plus the 25% discount for the chair. any info would be helpful.
