Ampeg Micro-VR Stack $200

Message from Andrew Pa:
Dear Musician,

Thank you for your recent inquiry.

Unfortunately we are unable to match the price that you had requested.
The price on the link you had provided is listed for the head only, not the head
and cabinet combo.
We apologize for the inconvenience.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any other questions or concerns, or if you are not completely satisfied with the service you have received from us today. We appreciate your feedback.

I hope that doesn't mean the deal is ruined for those of us that received letters! :crying:
 
Also, I noticed that the music123.com site says "reserve now for Jan 14th"... Which means, unless you requested next-day air shipping, we probably won't see it before the 15th deadline.

However, I believe last night, when I placed my order, they had a different date than Jan 14th... (I'm not positive though). So maybe some of us will get them before the rebate deadline.
 
I posted on Ampeg's FB page that it'd be great if they could extend the mail-in due date for the rebates... Nothing like a little good publicity!

Nice job...couldn't hurt, right?! You're right about a different also. Prior to today the date for availability was December 22. MF has them listed to arrive Jan 7, so who knows? However, if these rigs aren't in stock anywhere right now, you'd think they would grant an extra week or so for the rebate.
 
They're available elsewhere, but I didn't want to let in on that secret! The only problem is they're not available anywhere else for $300/stack! :hyper:

I'm hoping for a Dec. 22nd delivery, that would be perfect!
 
Just called Music123 to see what my status was (and to see how much money I can plan on having for Christmas really).

They said my combos will both be in on the 7th of January, and will likely ship out on the following Monday (10th)... Should have it by the end of that week, just in time to take advantage of the rebate. :bassist:
 
I just got a shipping confirmation for the Ampeg cabinet...despite ordering the head and the cabinet for $299. I hope I get another shipping notice soon that has the head in it.....it's funny my original order points to the stack....but the shipping is only the cab...we'll see...
 
Do you know if there's a signature required for the delivery?

I ask because mine is scheduled to go out next Friday, and I had it delivered to home instead of the office. I just want to make sure I get it before the rebate deadline.

The tracking isn't quite live yet.....but you can always have it held at a facility after it has shipped. I would imagine yours would be shipping soon. We all ordered round the same time.

...just got my shipping notice for the cab as well. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get in on the crazy price match deal, but $500 after the rebate is still a nice deal. I was told that the head is supposed to be in by Jan. 7, so that should be enough time to get the rebate in plenty of time.

I've never had to sign for any of the stuff (music wise) I've received from UPS, so I don't think that this should be any different.
 
Did they charge you guys for the full stack, or for just the cabinet as that's what's shipping today?

I had called earlier, and they told me it wouldn't be shipping until the 7th, so I was under the impression everything would ship at the same time. But, I guess it doesn't surprise me if some thing ship earlier.

I was charged for the full stack, and like you, was told the 7th for a ship date.
