Sell it on ebay and don't mention the frets in the ad. That will probably be the the most cost efficient thing to do.

Yeah that's true, if it is a handmade it's worth refretting, but if it is nj or anything lower like platinum or so, just sell it.

The guitar is too dry. Run a humidifier in the room for a couple of days. If that doesn't help you can put super glue under the frets and block the fret board, but its a process. If it's only a couple of frets and you have a good relation ship with a music store/tech they'll do it for free or very little ~$40 at most.

Hey! Lets go pry that gun from Charlton Heston's dead hands. It'll be like taking candy from a baby now!

ouch, that sounds bad, i would sell it for a discounted price, OR do what neo said, get into the glue, it shouldnt be popping up like that, must be the conditions it is being kept in, or just really shit production by bc rich!
