Oh, there is... it's just the other way... I think I've gotten 2-3 calls total in 12+ years.. but then I bought a lot of studio gear in that time...calfzilla wrote:I'm surprised there isn't some sort of purchase amount threshold for those calls.

Re: Sweetwater Sales People
This is a great strategy. "Strategy" might not be the right word. Generally speaking it's just nice to be personable.RubenTheDev wrote:I always make it a point to make friends with local GC/SW sales people, preferably the STM or above.
I tend to buy a ton of used stuff, and being bros with them tends make it easier to put down almost-non-existent down payments for layaways and keep them on said layaway for like ever. I picked up my 2017 LE pine JM for $1100 and paid it off in like $20 increments over the course of 7 months-ish as I was hella broke.
Beyond that they hit me up sometimes when something interesting crosses their path. Like my '73 Twin was a pick up from them too for like $700.
You never know who you cross paths with and make life long friendships with.

Re: Sweetwater Sales People
I'm amazed by the fact that this exists as an option. If anyone tried to launch something like this in Sweden they'd be outta business within hours of opening their shop.

Re: Sweetwater Sales People
I blocked all calls from Fort Wayne so no idea if my rep has called in the last three years but after the Sweetwater CEO's political donations came out I don't even feel the urge to use them for disposables like picks and strings.
I sent my rep one "any discounts/coupons' on a Fender American Original and they offered 6.2% off. I could save more with the regular GC 15% off or just buying from a shop online that doesn't have to charge sales tax so... pass.
