Guitar Center used site

This is all just so completely f'd, I'm arguing with a "verification" person at GC and they're telling me there is no problem even though a store manager gave me their number because of the problem we are arguing about. I really look forward to the day they collapse so someone else can take their place, it couldn't possibly be worse than this.
 
You can ask for a quote. I paid a dollar to be a "member", and all the lowest prices show up when I log in. The prices are often very good for new stuff.

(239.20, free shipping)

That is a great price for a new one. Ironically, they have a used one for the same price:

I like Guitar Center's return policy. If I get my amp out of the shop soon, I might just take the GK head back to GC.

I've never played a MB200 but since you're from the area, if you know S. Riggs (I feel weird putting his full name on the internet), he bought one and returned it right away to switch back to the 400RB, he said it was no where near as loud. If you do buy it make sure you have a free return policy. The GK MB Fusion 500 is my favorite sound/weight amp ever, I'm using a MB Fusion 800 now but that's only because I like the lights.
 
I almost talked myself into getting the MB 500 Fusion, but then I remembered I only want something small as a backup for when my main amp is not working. In reality, I don't need it at all. I've got two combo amps that can handle bass, but I feel odd letting my Markbass cab sit in the corner not being used.
Just found this, 300 with case:

Also, occasionally they have sales on their discount prices- an extra 5% usually, plus they also started a "make an offer" program on most of their items.

Sorry for the derail.
 
EBMM SUB Sterlings are rare. EBMM SUB fretlesses are rare. So how about this:

As I'm digging deeper into this new web ordering BS, it turns out that after you place the order online the store is not even notified of a purchase until a few days later when everything completely clears, during that time no one else can buy it online but anyone can call the store or walk in and buy it. Apparently that's where my Meatball went. It's a shame I can't curse on this website since that leaves me literally no words once again to express this.

Yeah, it seemed dodgy that's why I call and order. I wish I could get some kind of clarification on the shipping situation. Sometimes they've just done a store-to-store transfer, sometimes they've charged me shipping to send it to the store by me. Obviously I prefer if they ate the shipping, but their shipping fees are super fair.
