Rant: Ethics of Guitar Stores in Singapore

[squirrel]

Still settling for off-the-shelves?

Thumbs up to ebenex. Always trusted those fellas.

I should get whatever company to make me a les paul with more awesome specs just to piss you off hahahah

For a used pedal at 50%, it was barely cheaper than a brand new one from Peninsula... So they were selling a used pedal for almost double the price of a new one! *Strike 3*

???

I've never really seen Ebenex do this before... Thumbs up to David for solving the problem though ^.^ Have dealt with David personally, awesome guy ^.^

You're an interesting fellow eh? You're an 18 year old lawyer who is needs to fund a degree, and you're interested in bass but purchased a 5K les paul instead of a bass?

 

[jskadiang]

Do you really believe everything he says? Haha

 

[tubescreamer]

Just pointing out the inherent contradictions heh. I remember a kid sometime back who claimed he had 10 Gibson LP's but ended up owing someone money for a LP copy he wanted to buy on eBay.

I think the shop should be named. It isn't fair that if a shop has good service, we can publish and talk about it but when some other shop gives bad service, we are discouraged from posting the name of the store.

I believed that it had already been mentioned

I know, a few pages back. Sorry, my bad. But every shop will have their fair share of nicer salesperson.

guess i'm late to this thread but just wanted to chip in -- Ram from Woodworkz is one cool guy - really knows his stuff, really passionate about his gear. I'd buy from him anytime -- once I have the cash to pick up one of his Peerless Monarch hollowbodys.

I think TS had the issue settled. Will close this thread now.
