With these coupon code deals, the company is contractually prohibited from publishing the deal on certain brands--but they will give you the deal if you call them on the phone! Allowing it to appear in an internet shopping cart is a form of publication. Call them.

Does this work as well if you buy in-store from GC? I've always wondered what use all these coupons were when they have an exclusion list a mile long (which contains any and every brand I'd purchase, of course).

Gretsch is excluded but they still honored thediscount in-store. Unfortunately it was only 10%. Once in a while they'll offer 20% coupons. If you're willing to wait for the 20% coupon get on the gc e-mailing list.

I wish I would've known about this before I purchased my Genz Benz combo with the price quote.

If you purchased it within the last few weeks call them to see if they will refund the difference. Some places do offer price protection for first 30 or 45 days after purchase. Worth a try....

Yes, it works. The issue is whether a price is "published" or "advertised", not whether you actually get the deal.

Now, in both on-phone and in-store cases, you may run into a low level employee who says "no that brand is excluded"--but if that happens, you just ask to speak to their manager, and get the deal from them.

Thanks much, Bongo!... Hmm... Now I need to decide if I want to actually give GC my business... Hurm. (Luckily they most often don't have any basses I actually want/like in stock at the one near me anyway... Go figure)

kenstee, thanks a lot for this code. I used it at music123 and I also used another coupon code (m123save) that gave me an additional $20 off. For some reason the online system allowed me to use two coupons. I just got the deal of a lifetime on a cab!

I tried but it didn't work. He said I already got over $400 off the regular price and they don't combine discounts/offers.

Well, their site says this. Call again and speak to someone else......


Retroactive Price Matching
Published 05/15/2007 09:31 AM | Updated 08/29/2010 04:34 PM

The price on an item I recently ordered is lower now than when I ordered it. I'd like to get the lower price. Is this possible?

Music123 prides itself in offering the lowest prices in the industry. If we lower a price within 45 days of your purchase, we want to extend that discount to you! Simply e-mail us or call our customer service team at 888-566-6123 to request that the difference be refunded. Items marked as "closeout", "blowout", or "special sale", etc. may not be eligible.

I haven't seen a 20% coupon since last year from Bain stores.

And the problem with calling is that you can't get the additional online discounts from stuff like eBates.
