Members blueshawk1 Posted July 5, 2008 Members Share Posted July 5, 2008 Yeah, go ahead and tell us, you won't be alone. I've done it. The guitar seemed really sweet, the price was a great deal, got it home, played it a few times and then it sat in the rack. It was still a nice guitar, but just not what I would reach for if I was going to take some time to play. So away it went........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members victorcrane Posted July 5, 2008 Members Share Posted July 5, 2008 I do this all the time, I went out for strings a couple of weeks back and came home with a big muff, a korg multi fx that was on sale and looked interesting, some fast fret and of course two packs of strings. Walking home I thought 'Hang on, I just spent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bill Cosby Posted July 5, 2008 Members Share Posted July 5, 2008 nah man, i always research what i want online before i go and buy it/or even try it out in the store. mostly because GC has horrible customer service and i want to actually know the pros and cons of the item.

Members ArKay Posted July 5, 2008 Members Share Posted July 5, 2008 i thought about this, have you just gone into a guitar shop i just bought that guitar or that pedal then getting home and thinking bugger, i really shouldnt have done that lol, or do you plan your purchases and do your home work before parting with cash.............. just curious Done both... I always check eBay and try to find as much information on a guitar as I can before hitting it. Sometimes there is no information though (because the model isn't popular or too new) and I've been burned a couple of times because of that. Was not that much of a problem yet since I could simply return those guitars, just a little disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members belief bone Posted July 5, 2008 Members Share Posted July 5, 2008 Yes, for 4 weeks every time I buy something, and then the "i shouldn't have spent money" feeling goes away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members chrisebrooks06 Posted July 5, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 5, 2008 well i saved up some cash and bought a dimebag tribute guitar and a digitech whammy, i got it all home and thought cash gone lol, i love the guitar and owe no debts etc, but just felt a little bit of guilt, dont know why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Oldskool Texas Posted July 5, 2008 Members Share Posted July 5, 2008 I ordered one of those Daisy Rock Retro-H semi-hollows when they were being blown out for $149, and before the thing even got here I regretted it. I played it exactly twice and sold it to someone for $85 just so it wouldn't be around to remind me what a stupid purchase it was. Impulse buys seldom work out well for me.

Members ajympt Posted July 5, 2008 Members Share Posted July 5, 2008 I have always found that my severe lack of impulse control goes best with essentially no guilt reflex-turns out I'm married to someone who manages to feel guilty about things she didn't even buy so I guess we sort of balance out the universe somewhere along the line.

Members docjeffrey Posted July 5, 2008 Members Share Posted July 5, 2008 I sold all of my impulse purchases a couple of years ago. No more of that for me. The only things that I've bought in the last 6 months are guitar strings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sylvesterlowery Posted July 5, 2008 Members Share Posted July 5, 2008 I've made quite a few impulse buys, don't regret any of them really. Most of them were really good deals or something that I've been wanting for a long time and just came up suddenly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
