whenever i'm ready to buy gear i will search ebay and froogle for the cheapest dealer price. then i go to guitar center 10 minutes from me and they always beat the price by 10% of the difference and i buy it from them.
is there a way for me to find stuff even cheaper? any good hidden web sites out there i'm missing? i'm setting up a project studio in my house and i'm buying everything from mics to bass traps to cabeling to outboard gear, etc, etc
guitar center isnt supposed to match ebay or amazon. also - if
guitar center isnt supposed to match ebay or amazon.
also - if you're asking the folks at GC for help (wiring, specs, general gear questions, etc) then you shouldnt be a dick about price-matching. if you make them work, they should make money. and if they make money, they will be more likely to give you super-accurate information and be happier to see you, and hook you up with better prices anyways.
but no - i think what you're doing is the best way to get the best prices.
