I think my mom got ripped off...
I was talking to her about my guitar today when she mentioned that she spent 700 something dollars on it.
So I'm like "what?" I see it online for 300-400 and I'm pretty sure the suggested retail is 500 something. She ordered it from a local music store in November of '04. Was the rg7321 really worth 700 something (including tax) back then? |

In Canada, most of the stores I went to for a RG7321 had a retail price of almost $700
Such pain, I must help...deepen it

Local guitar stores are almost always a rip off, I had a place order dimarzios for me and the total (with labour, but still) was $285.

hahaha, that's fuckin hilarious, but I'd probably cry if that happened to myself (not possible...). I'm trying to get a job at "Mills Music" about a block from my house. They sell Fender copies called Marlins for like $75... all the way up to Conklin Basses. Their most popular guitar, is a 6 string Washburn for $699.99, which is $200.00 at guitar center.

It pays to do reasearch. A markup to 700 from a local shop isn't that unusual.

I did the research, I just didn't get involved in the whole money thing.
She said they gave some kind of discount or something...I dunno...but I have a job there now so I'll try to learn the in's and out's of this. |

If you work there I'd find the guy who sold it to her, don't they have a record of sales or would that be to long ago?
Anyways, I'd find the salesman strike up a friendship with him and slaughter his family!....er...Yeah I'd be pissed. |
