but I just managed to get sticks, drum accessories, a full set and an additional paiste crash and stand for under 380 (free shipping and a random 45 dollar promo discount).

how the fuck do they profit from this shit?

LOL I didn't even know they still existed. The intarweb must be killing them; they're probably offering killer deals just to compete.

because they probably only paid 120 dollars for all that crap.

Are you kidding? They're the number one retailer online, and they're owned by GC.

Yeah, I don't really buy new stuff. (I be po.) But I'll take your word for it.

links plz

sinistas said:

I think GC, musicians friend (and music123) are all owned by a parent company.

But yea.

They are a huge online retailer.

Along with:
samash.com
zzounds.com
samedaymusic.com
americanmusical.com
worldmusicsupply.com
musician.com
and sweetwater.com

and most of those places have lowest price policies so if you find it cheaper somewhere, a different retailer will give you a better price.

and most of them will send you free catalogs.

I just like Musician's Friend because it gives me something to read on the can....and it's got pretty pictures.

hahahahaha

same with sweetwater (they NEVER leave you alone if you order even once though)

bhproaudio has more random stuff you actually need once in a while, like replacement connectors, shotgun condenser microphones and such

I got a sweet Musicinsfriend rebate when I ordered my software last month

Yeah I'm pretty sure either a parent company or GC owns them all. Talk about a fucking monopoly.

I'm with you, but I keep up anyways. haha

I ordered three sets of picks last week and today I got two sets of picks and a set of Tonepros Tuners. Haha. I'm perfectly fine with that.

I was JUST shopping there.
