this reminds me of a whiney local EH dealer who complained to mummy EH about other local dealers who are offering discounts to COMPETE with the whiney local EH dealer's MASSIVE discounts... now EH is BANNING all ebay sales.
zippeedeedoodah zippeedeeday... my oh my what a wonderful day.... :mrgreen:
woah, who is so "chik arrk", bloody hell, locally still do something like that, this kinda of dealer only spoilt market and behind market, bend over their kar cherng to let others proceed as well..
yeah... brings back memories... I remember trying that piece (or one like it) yonks ago at swee lee. Loved that natural mahogany finish...
Bought mine in London. Yep - I love the finish; it's what attracted me to it, but when i started to play it - WOW; it's very very easy to shred and do legato stuff.
People will always support their local dealers if the price is reasonable (need not be dirt cheap). And they're willing to pay a little bit more for the technical support and warranty if the item is big, like Mesa amps. But >200% marked up is just plain daylight robbery! In fact Bentley's outrageous pricing for Mesa can actually buy you a car in Malaysia. Seriously.
Yep, Bentley's "cry to mummy Mesa" antic is really low. The most disgusting part is they even got the nerve to go after private shoppers and consumers - who are neither dealers or in the music retail at all. Yeah, screw Bentley!
Haha, agree. Maybe it's the scarcity that hyped it up.
IMO, for high gain stuff, tube Marshalls are just as good. Cheaper some more.
