SAM ASH 20% off over $299 on 1/27/11

I received a post card in the mail. There are some exceptions (like Fender), but not as many as usual. Looks like it's in store only and our store generally doesn't have great stock so I doubt I'll be getting anything...

I'll probably get a post card on Jan 28th

I got the Thanksgiving sale flyer the week after Thanksgiving which was real helpful.

In-store only?

Think Music123 will price match on this 20% off?

You sure it's 20%? They were just recently running $20 off orders over $299.

20%, but it's Sam Ash, not GC. Sorry. I stopped in tonight to see what my local store had (in store only) and they had one new guitar I wanted to try. Since I had my post card with me, they were willing to give me the deal tonight so I wouldn't have to come back tomorrow. The guitar was the new PRS Santana SE (import). It was ok, but I decided to pass since the quality wasn't quite there (I own several USA PRSs and two PRS imports). Bummer. Couldn't find anything else in the store that would tempt me to part with even $300. Oh well.

I got something similar via email: GC: Two amazing offers - $10 off $49 or $100 off $499 thru 1/30

I screwed up. It's Sam Ash, not GC. GC was recently running $20 off $99, so 20% off, but that's if you spent $100. The $20 never got higher.

I called Music123 - they said they do not match Sam Ash....

That's crazy.

Not only is it contrary to their policy, they've done it for me.

They've refused to match a Sam Ash closeout price, but not a sale price.

Link.
M123 does match these.

When I called, M123 told me because it was Sam Ash, and because they(M123) were out of stock, they would not match.
MF - also did not match

However - zZounds came through with a 626.95 price on a SVT7Pro head (799.99). Of course no sales tax and free shipping to boot. Not too shabby...

Kudos to zZounds.com!
