Members Slaytallica Posted July 25, 2006 Members Share Posted July 25, 2006 If it sounds too good to be true then it probably {censored}ing is. I feel bad for the younger cats that really wanted the axe for themselves and had to scrape their hard earned pennies together to get a decent axe. But for all of you that went out and bought like 5 at a time to try and sell em on ebay I don't feel bad. All you did was try to scam 357 for 5 free guitars that you were gonna make a killing on and instead you got scammed. Next time instead of buy a {censored}ty diecast toy to get a free guitar, just {censored}ing save your dough and buy one out right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members NoodleFace Posted July 25, 2006 Members Share Posted July 25, 2006 People who actually went for this deal are retarded, it's as simple as that. Zakk says it about halfway through, who the {censored} thinks they can spend $200 for a $1000 guitar. I mean seriously, use your heads. Yes it's {censored}ed up, but I don't feel bad for people that actually wasted money on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members The Idiot Posted July 25, 2006 Members Share Posted July 25, 2006 The fact of the matter is, people trusted zakk wylde's {censored}ing site on this deal, they didn't think they were gonna get ripped off from a guy who moderated his message board. Zakk knew from square one what was going on with this deal, he probably thought it was good deal as well until it went sour. He's a {censored}ing dick to say 'well, what do you think was gonna happen with a deal that sounds too good to be true'. I hope someone caps that mother{censored}er right between the eyes.

Its a Korean guitar with the crappiest EMG's you can ask for. (Well....the EMG Select are worse I guess) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zakk Wylde may be an ass, but if you thought you could get an instrument for an eight of its price from some shady company which would gain NOTHING by advertising to amp nerds, you're a bigger ass yet. Zakk isn't obligated to protect you or avenge your dumb{censored}ery, use your own damn head and see scams for what they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sty1es Posted July 26, 2006 Members Share Posted July 26, 2006 First off, the guitar is an $800 guitar, not $1k...I know thats splitting hairs, but the cost on a foreign made guitar at that price is roughly half, if not less of its retail price. If they were really going to buy in wholesale, they wouldn't have spend 1k (or 800) on each guitar, it probably would have been closer to 400, or maybe even less depending on the quantity. I think Zakk just didnt see it coming and now hindsight is 20/20 to him. I'm sure he feels bad for his fans somewhat, thats why he acts like he personally "got fist{censored}ed" by the deal. The truth is, if anything I think 357 probably paid Zakk up front to pose with everything, so monetarily, he's at a gain. But now that so many of his fans have gotten ripped off, he'll lose in ticket/record/gear sales, so he'll end up at a net loss...thats why he's releasing statements like these. I feel bad for the people who scraped to get in on this deal, because I'm sure there are more than enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KirkHammett1 Posted July 26, 2006 Members Share Posted July 26, 2006 I think what the 357 noobs dont realize is that the promotion was on Zakk Wyldes official website. And Zakk Wylde's webmaster Chad Dyer personally was the sole reason anyone gave it a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Zakk wouldn't back and obvious scam. Bastards.Am I bitter? Yes. My wife reminds of the money I lost each time I talk about getting another piece of gear. I at least got 1 of the two orders refunded through my credit card. The check order is lost forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mrrampant Posted July 26, 2006 Members Share Posted July 26, 2006 At least we heard from Zakk, even if the interviewer lobbed easy pitches. That's probably as good as it will get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
