Phil O'Keefe Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 They've relisted it, as you're already aware... and it's a used amp, not even a new one, so they can't claim they had to stick with Mesa's price guidelines or anything like that. It smacks of bait and switch, or even fraud IMHO. Certainly breach of contract. Spread the word. I'm half tempted to tell them I'M going to spread the word... I hate shops that do stuff like that!

Phil O'Keefe Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Looks like they've already gotten 5 offers on the relist. Perchance was that you guys sending them frivolous high bids with no intent of honoring them? Not that I'd recommend doing that mind you, but they'd be in little moral position to gripe about it, seeing as they don't honor their contracts.

Phil O'Keefe Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Apparently I'd have to register with Ebay UK in order to send them a message / "ask the seller a question", but if you wanted to point them to this thread as an example of the damage their actions are causing to their reputation, I would not have a problem with it. They could even feel free to post "their side of the story" here if they wanted to. I'd be fair to them... but at this point, I don't see how they can possibly justify screwing you over the way they appear to have done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kid_A Posted March 13, 2010 Author Members Share Posted March 13, 2010 That weird Phil, you should just be able to ask a question... It might of asked you to sign in (which you would just use your normal ID/pw)... Im going to send them that message and see what they say and then ill see if they want a peek at this thread... cheers for the headsup though Phil!

It might of asked you to sign in (which you would just use your normal ID/pw)... as long as you find the auction page through your own country's ebay site, you should be able to contact the seller: changing the ".co.uk" to ".com" should do it. .

Members ChuckNorris1982 Posted March 13, 2010 Members Share Posted March 13, 2010 The Manchester shop shut down the other week, which is hardly surprising seeing as they were trying to sell Mex standard Strats for 580 quid even BEFORE Fender's price hike last year. It's a shame, because they carry some nice stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members goldie-gold Posted March 13, 2010 Members Share Posted March 13, 2010 This sucks I, like many others, am not surprised even in the slightest. I've only had had dealings with Music Ground a couple of times and on both occasions they couldn't even be polite or remotely interested in me as a potential customer. Bunch of twats.I decided there were much nicer people to give my money to.Hope you manage to at least piss them off even if you don't get the amp.

Members RadioSilence Posted March 13, 2010 Members Share Posted March 13, 2010 no, there's no national musical instrument chains here. the nearest we had was Sound Control which had about a dozen stores in scotland and the north of england but they folded three or four years ago.
