You ordered me a brand new Ibanez SR706 a few months ago and I love it!!!!

And you gave me a free set of $45 strings, an apology and a full refund when you messed up my order for a Boss GT-10B!!!!!

Curse you for selling products that I might potentially buy if I need or want them!

I consider this more social commentary than trolling.

Yeah darn you for buying my Peavey Combo 300 that noone else wanted to buy for a reasonable amount. I was only asking 100... and you gave me 80. which was the best offer i had got. Darn you.

and Darn you for noticing that the rubber foot was missing on the Used amp i wanted to buy and without asking discounting a couple bucks ...

Darn you for giving me good customer service... darn you for offering to order me the new Fender Flats CL's that aren't carried in the store... Darn you for letting me come in every other week and try out the used basses that are new arrivals...

Darn you for taking back the Heavy GHS Boomers Im about to return so I can order those flats mentioned earlier.

I have a very strong sense that this is a parody thread...

Damn you GC, for never doing me dirty and giving me no reason to start a 'Guitar Center Sux' thread!

Darn you GC for carrying used gear that I can't find anywhere else but eBay and Craigslist and then having to gaul to force a 30 day no questions asked full refund on me if I decide I don't want it, not to mention the ulitmate insult of not charging me shipping to Cincinnati when it's listed in one of your darn Texas stores. Schmucks (not).

Wow you guys must live by the best GC's in the country. The ones local to me, have so so customer service. Really couldn't care unless your dropping serious cash. I'd rather shop at one of the local shops and maybe even pay a little more or wait a couple of days for them to order an item that GC would have in stock. They are almost as bad as Sam-Ash. Although I would sell them my used gear if they cold called me in response to my CL adds.

darn you GC for selling me a killer Tony Franklin fretless "used" at a super-competitive rate ... that was practically brand new, in immaculate condition, with unopened case candy and beautifully original case. you guys suck.
