Musician's Friend is really getting on my nerves. First they harass the crap out of me with numerous phone calls, texts and emails trying to push a sale. Pretending to be all nice, I'm they're best friend, they can get me the hook up on anything I want at a great discount. "Hey sales person thanks, but what I want isn't in stock so there's nothing to assist me with for now. I'll contact you when I want to buy something, you don't need to call me 3 times a day." Guess who called several times a day over the next week. It took a bit, but they finally stopped calling.
About 3 weeks later an open box happens to pop up for what I want. Great! I have a coupon for open box stuff too, but it won't take it on the website... it's one of those call us to use it ones. Fine, I'll call the sales dude.
Get him on the line... "Hey Mr. sales guy I want to get this and apply the coupon."
He comes back with, yeah it's an open box item it's already discounted.
But the coupon says for open box and the item isn't on the list of exclusions...... what's the problem?
I'm sorry I can't discount it any further, if I did we'd lose money on it.
Okay, whatever, i don't feel like going back and forth on this... I have a bunch of points that will literally post in less than 12 hours, would you be able to apply them to this purchase.
I can't do that sir, you might try to rip us off if we let you use the points now.
Really!? So there's nothing you can do? You're not able to work with me at all?
Sorry, I can't give you a discount and you'll rip us off if you get to use your points now.
It's not like I was trying to haggle down a $20,000 Gibson down to 200 bucks. I just wanted to use my coupons and points. Well thanks for nothing, you've been no help at all.
THEN after all that, guess who I have a voice mail from the following day wanting to hook me up with some great deals... WTF!!! Screw you musician's friend, shitty little sales dude, and the horse y'all rode in on. Keep your damn points, I'll enjoy my bag of candy from Sweetwater.
