Members Thorhead Posted April 8, 2011 Members Share Posted April 8, 2011 So appears East west has won the MIPA award with their "dark side". They have also reduced prices of hollywood strings by a lot. And in addition now they include "buy 1 get 1 for free". You could probably snatch out the whole set for reasonable price now, in other words. Let's not forget the Gear slutz drama though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members j_e_f_f_g Posted April 8, 2011 Members Share Posted April 8, 2011 I was looking at some east west stuff. But I don't follow Gearslutz much. If there's some "drama" pertinent to a prospective buyer, can you either link it, or briefly sum it up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's some "drama" pertinent to a prospective buyer, can you either link it, or briefly sum it up? Well basically there was some "posers" working for east west in a hype thread... Anyway, the thread got deleted (wonder how east west paid for that, rofl), but there was a remake thread. But now I can't find it for some reason. Am I just imagining or does the thread exist somewhere? Or perhaps I just dreamed it. Maybe there are some gearslut users here to clarify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members evildragon Posted April 8, 2011 Members Share Posted April 8, 2011 Oh there's lots to google about: http://www.gearslutz.com/board/moan-zone/503810-why-removing-eastwest-complaints-thread-bad-thing.html http://www.gearslutz.com/board/music-computers/361389-eastwest-trying-go-out-business.html#post3870323 http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=304972&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 etc. Until they get their act together and make a proper engine, they can have all the sales and discounts they want, they won't see a penny from me.

Members j_e_f_f_g Posted April 9, 2011 Members Share Posted April 9, 2011 Ok, nevermind then. I'm a programmer, so I know how hard it is to write software that installs/runs well on the multitude of hardware/software configurations out there. So, I'll cut a company some slack on bugs (as long as they have a good policy on updates). But I also know to steer way clear of folks who are overly defensive/paranoid about complaints/problems, and employ some ethically questionable behavior in the way they conduct themselves.
