Members cuppster Posted September 3, 2009 Members Share Posted September 3, 2009 MF "Scratch N Dent" sale:Friday - 15% offSat. - 20% offSun. - 25% offMonday - 30% off!!!As many here know, MF "Scratch N Dent" can yield some great bargains. With the up to 30% off, it's a no brainer.https://mfgtrc.rsys1.net/servlet/website/ResponseForm?tMnmkJEVTTCTCTW_f.40_zghhSL_UEJHktprHUFntHpsDJht I can see what they're thinking. They're thinking, "People will buy stuff all weekend, and inventory will go down while discounts go up. So we will only give the largest discounts on a few items." What I'm thinking is, why wouldn't anyone who wanted anything just wait until 12:00am on Monday morning to buy it, and get the maximum discount?

Members KwadGuy Posted September 3, 2009 Members Share Posted September 3, 2009 Most likely they have one, maybe two tops, of those $99 Squier guitars, any of which is a steal. Not worth the effort for me, although if I thought I could get them with only a phone call and no stress, I'd be in... I have the DuoSonic--it was $200 from MusicialsFriend a couple of months ago. Very cool looking guitar and feels good. I don't particularly love the stock pickups, but it was a good deal at $200 and for $100...come on...

Members George Jetson Posted September 3, 2009 Members Share Posted September 3, 2009 I just noticed PRS SE semi hollow soapbar in Tobacco Burst at $499, minus 15% around $425. Normally over $700 at MF.. August thread is gone. What is the code for 15% discount? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members succor Posted September 3, 2009 Members Share Posted September 3, 2009 ^^^ Price match from MF and others?^^^ That's a good idea! Could get messy, though. Most big price match places will only match if the item is in stock. Plus, the sale won't start until tomorrow. They'll really only be on sale for about 1 minute until they're sold out, I imagine.

Members cuppster Posted September 3, 2009 Members Share Posted September 3, 2009 Because someone else might get to it before them? Only someone who didn't care about the discount. In which case they could buy it any time they wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jamdogg Posted September 3, 2009 Members Share Posted September 3, 2009 Only someone who didn't care about the discount. In which case they could buy it any time they wanted. The point is to find the sweet spot with regard to a good discount without getting sniped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention the Victor Litz site is calling all of the items "used", which would kill any price matching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xStonr Posted September 4, 2009 Members Share Posted September 4, 2009 Only two (2) duo-sonics at Victor Litz, according to a sales person! Good luck on that one. Now I can just let my GAS dissipate on that one. Whats next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members vanzant38 Posted September 4, 2009 Members Share Posted September 4, 2009 I'm probably gonna waste my time and call about the Duo Sonic tomorrow. Maybe they will try to sell me a MIM for 200. __________ Any insiders want to let the FF cat out of the bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly wouldn't lose any sleep over them. This is NOT Guitar Center/Music123/MusiciansFriend. We know they only have 2 of the classic vibes, and at least one is probably a demo beater. I would guess 1-2 each of the other two $99 Squiers as well... And I'd guess they'll sell to special friends of the store, or at least customers who come in all the time.
