Guitar Center Gear?

I never hear anything about guitar center on here regarding buying online and having it shipped to your house. I was just wondering if the used gear on their site is any good, and if their shipping and customer service is reasonably good. Would YOU buy from them? Thanks in advance!

I've bought used gear from them, no complaints. They have a 30 day return policy so if you don't like it, you can just return it to any store.

I have a used cab on the way from them. The process was extremely easy. As long as the cab shows up in good condition-I'll buy used from them when they have the best prices on stuff that I want.

Its a total crap-shoot. I ordered a bass once that was supposed to be in excellent condition. Two of the screws holding the neck on were stripped and one of the tuners was so badly bent that you couldn't turn it. The packaging was very good, so this bass shipped like that.

I called and explained. They gave me a return authorization number and a refund.

Thanks for all the fast replies! I was just thinking about ordering a cab (or two) from them, but hadn't heard much about them shipping to your house.

I have ordered a few used things great experiences I usually have it shipped to the store because it's usually free and that way if it's broken or not as described it stays right there and I get my money back.
