So, my 12 year old daughter has been showing interest in picking up Bass, something I fully support! My 34" scale felt too big for her though, so I started looking at short scales. Decided on an Ibanez GSRM20 Mikro in Starlight Blue, which seemed to be out of stock everywhere. After a week of checking, Musician's Friend finally showed stock and I ordered it. A few days later, received a ship notification originating from Guitar Center #769 in Atlanta, which I thought was odd (later found out this is common now). Yesterday, this beat up piece of junk showed up on my doorstep. No Ibanez box, no retail tags or paperwork. Just a beat up bass wrapped in bubble wrap... Box even had someone else's invoice attached (for a TMB100) to the outside, with my shipping label on the other.
Note there was no damage to the box, and no paint chips in the box. They literally packed up this piece of crap and sent it to me as a new bass. Called yesterday to return it and after 30min they said they'd emailed me a return label. Still no email from them, so opened up a dispute with my credit card company. I'll never do business with them again, this is ridiculous.
