Fender Fridays At Musicians Friend

Right now, they've got two used Jaguars on MF for $539. I bought a used Hot Rod Red one and it was in perfect condition, and they still honored the free gift advertisement when I called and complained that it should be included since the used basses are merely returned new basses (which it explains on the site: condition rating 1 = returned item, like new condition). $539.99 for a Jag with a Fender B-DEC is a steal!

I tried to get the same deal and she (sales lady) was emphatic that the used ones do not come with the free gift. I asked if there was someone else there that I could speak to about it and she said no. I could've turned into an A_Hole and asked for a supervisor, but I didn't have the energy. Too bad, I really wanted that deal.
 
if you really wanted it, you should have asked to talk to someone else. When you search for "Fender Jaguar Bass", the result you will get will say " Fender Jaguar Bass - Used" and right under it, it says "FREE GIFT." I'd understand if it came up as a new one with a free gift, but it actually comes up as a used bass, so if they don't give it to you, it's false advertising. It took a little work, but I got what the ad said I should get. If I'm an A_hole for that, than so be it, but I think MF is who was being the A_hole here...

Well, if you'll read my post again, I did try and speak to someone else, but the beeyatch wouldn't let me. Could I have been more pressing, yes. I should've called back and spoke to someone else. At the end of the day, I was on the fence about it because I also want a MIA Deluxe P Bass, so I'm really trying to get that first and then the Jaguar. But this offer was so good!!!!

Glad that some of you got the deal. If anyone decides they don't want it, maybe we can strike a deal.
