Music123 return policy

Sign in to disble this ad
I'll most likely be using them for the GK Combo. MF was phenomenal when I needed to send a Bassman back (blown horn), printed out their return label and went to UPS, then they second day aired me a replacement.

Has anyone had to return to 123 and if so, was it a problem?

It's the same company - won't be any problem if you follow their guidelines.

Returned a dud bass to Music123 2 Christmas's ago. Not a problem at all. As above same company owns them all, return policies and procedures are generally the same.

My experiences with Music123 have been very, very good. I had to return three pedals recently because they did not have the tone I was looking for.
I delt with two or three different reps over the phone on different occasions and all were courteous, friendly and efficient. A real pleasure to do business with. I followed-up with a phone call to make sure they had received my package and they confirmed my credit card had been credited. Again fast and efficient. I can't say enough good things about the quality of their customer service. In a competitive environment where prices are often the same and products are the same it's the customer experience that will make the difference and these people understand that.

I also took a customer survey with a $5 or $10 gift card as a reward for taking the survey. Music 123 wanted to survey the customer experience. I took the survey and it stopped abruptly after the second question. A message came up saying I did not qualify to take the survey (I guess because of my response). I was mildly disappointed not to get the gift card but moved on. Well today I received a $20 gift certificate acknowledging their survey had gone wrong and people had complained. WOW, what a nice surprise and what a nice way to turn a negative experience into a positive one. Again, big company or not they seem to understand the value of treating their customers well or even very well.

Thanks guys, didn't know it's was such a huge entity. No wonder the prices are always tightly controlled.

No issues whatsoever with returns. AS a matter of fact, when
I called to let them know the amp I bought looked like it may
have been a return, they offered me another amp or another
$50. off on the one I already had, and was happy with.

I've had them offer me a discount when I asked to return a new item with no issues (changed my mind or didn't like) within the Return Period.

As further proof that they are the same company, I just went through the same survey thing with Musician's Friend. Got the "Oops, here's a $20 gift certifcate" email today.
