I had to battle through the site for about 30 minutes, and it stopped me three times from accepting my c/c details. It's not the easiest site for sure...

That makes up for the JG 72 I lost a few months ago when it was sold from under me...

It asked me to re register then told me that I was already registered then told me they did not have my account info ...I called Andy Schechter site manager,three times then GC about five times about that time it was sold.

It should be mine but the GC rep screwed up HUGE! and has called me like 5 times apologizing along /w the guy from IE who's site failed so miserably.


I really don't want to see this thread again this was so wrong its not funny.

I'm extremely ****** off I had an hour and a half head start on all this making 5000 phone calls broken promises... the guy took the bass put it in his office when Jeff saw it holding it for me.But neglected to take it off IE so I could get my account with them straight to pay for it through them.In that time Andy hit the buy it now.

Ken ... a word of advice ... you get mad too easy ... and sometimes you are sorry later ... look at the big picture ... there are other basses out there ... in the grand scheme of life one bass is not that important to get extreemly ****** off about ...

Hey-
I'm kicking myself for not throwing a bid so I could not be late for a massage!

Jeff-
How right you are. Yep it's rare, but there's another out there.
Two really. One for Ken and one for me.
I just hope it's not during another massage appointment....

Ken, OUCH!!! I've been in your shoes when your doing all the right things and the bus still hits you. Heck, you've just saved $1700 for the next nice 68 4001 due to pop up. Doggone 71, probably had a bunch of disco played upon her.
I'm just happy to be here.

If any thing Jeff should have gotten this bass he came in when the bass was still available[I hadn't worked out payment yet and Andy, hadn't hit buy it now yet]they told me they could not sell to me out Right because I was not a walk in.So how could they hold it for me,when they didn't?????This one does not sit right with me at all.
