Members onyxrhino Posted December 14, 2012 Members Share Posted December 14, 2012 I agree that this thread should probably be deleted. That said, it was way better getting deals about a year ago, when even fewer people knew about it. Of course, back then, you had to call the store, you couldn't just order online. That may be a better method anyway. I think the last 5 things I've bought on GC online, my orders got canceled, because "Sorry, we already sold this item and didn't realize it".

Not much of a deal but I was amazed I saw one there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prices actually went up? They are known for their band instruments and I won't even buy my daughters saxaphone reeds there. I don't think I have purchased anything locally for over 3 years.

Members Inertiatic_SKS Posted December 15, 2012 Members Share Posted December 15, 2012 The GC I used to work at (North Dallas) used to take in lots of boutique stuff IE Landgraff, old Mad Professor, and dozens of smaller boutique builders, and we almost always had them priced below what they were going for on Ebay and they moved within a week. We had a Landgraff MO'D at $250 that was sold less than a day after we bought it in. TL;DR If there's one thing GC won't screw you on, it's used pedals.

Members Kap'n Posted December 21, 2012 Members Share Posted December 21, 2012 I've found a couple of cool pedals at GC at decent prices (Ross phaser $40), but nothing that was a steal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members orourke Posted December 21, 2012 Members Share Posted December 21, 2012 $19 Bucks for a mint Boss DS-1. Yeah, I know it was only a DS-1, but it turned out to be very useful later in a Craigslist deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 3volved Posted December 21, 2012 Members Share Posted December 21, 2012 I just grabbed a used MXR Wylde OD for $49 from GC - mint condition. GC's used site is goldmine for great deals, I usually go there before eBay now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
