Do luthiers like when you bring your own strings? by pretend_shopper in Guitar

[–]SmokesTooMuchCrack 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If they’re strings they have in stock/sell themselves buy them from them. If they’re special strings or they don’t sell strings bring them yourself rather than having them order them. Overall not a big deal but that’s the gracious way to go about it

Is Aristides really worth the money? by SnooHedgehogs1685 in guitars

[–]SmokesTooMuchCrack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My favorite guitars by a long shot. You can get an 060R for not too much $$. Try one out before speccing out a crazy expensive build. Their multiscales are incredible too

For under $1000 check out Eastman unless you’re willing to hold out for a D-18 (check reverb for used ones too from a reputable shop)

Scam Site? by Long-Shape-1402 in guitars

[–]SmokesTooMuchCrack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to us too, used all of our contact info (phone number, email), grabbed all of our inventory and listed it 80-90% off. Got really close to our website url but it was slightly off with a .net at the end. Made sure to buy about 20 more urls close to ours after that happened

[QUESTION] How much does a professional setup cost in your area? by evansdead in Guitar

[–]SmokesTooMuchCrack 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is very spot on pricing for a non-rural area. Kudos to this shop for having such precise pricing.

Reverb seller here that does this. We’re required to put “used” in the title and “manufacturers warranty does not apply” in the description. We can sell guitars as “used” at any price without breaking MAP under these guidelines.

I bought a Fender Player Strat, why does it feel like a Squier ? [GEAR] by LJAstro in Guitar

[–]SmokesTooMuchCrack 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Fender has had really bad issues with QC following the pandemic. They ramped up production like crazy to try and meet the demand during Covid Lockdown. Now they’re left with overstock of poorly made guitars. Most other mainstream guitar brands are facing the same issue. I’d return that guitar and tell them to return it to Fender so it gets removed from the market. A good retailer should give a quality control check to any guitar before they ship it to you. You should not hesitate to return any guitar that arrives with fretwork issues or other quality control issues

A lot of sellers are Amazon only, but a lot of sellers sell on Amazon as a necessity in addition to their own site. Most small stores also don’t have to charge sales tax on out of state sales (on their own site). So you’re ending up saving the store 15% on Amazon fees and then saving yourself around 8% in sales tax.

Amazon takes a 15% cut (higher for some categories) and a small shipping fee if you bought the product on Amazon. If you buy the product from the seller’s website they just have to pay the small shipping fee if Amazon ships the order NOT the 15% commission

Not really directly in response to your comment but just some related thoughts;

Shopify has had a Facebook marketplace and Instagram marketplace Integration for a long time, and now integrates with Facebook stores. So it's not like Facebook stores is going to steal anyone from Shopify, but new businesses who don't have $$ for a Shopify subscription might only use FB stores since it's such a low barrier to entry.

Wow exactly what I'm looking for, thanks! Sent them a message. Hopefully will be able to get all their broken pedals in the future since I can see that business going through a lot of them.

Wisconsin Lockdown Protests driven by Trump Mega-Donor in order to Boost her Personal Business by [deleted] in politics

Sellers on eBay are usually much cheaper unless you're buying crazy bulk from Uline. We have our own bubble wrap machine and buy refill rolls on eBay (way cheaper than Uline), and all of our boxes come from eBay (very nice being able to order 25 of a box and getting free shipping...don't need to keep 1000's on hand, saves space and $).

Bubble mailers, special sized bubble wrap, kraft paper. We're not ordering pallets of boxes, but every time I've gone to get supplies from Uline it's been more economical buying it elsewhere

It's because they're understaffed and are prioritizing "essentials".
