Exactly! Don't advertise a product for a certain price, accept payment for that product, charge people's credit cards for that product and then don't deliver that product. That's being a "dick" and it's also illegal. To accept payment for a product and not deliver that product is a crime in every jurisdiction.

Standing up against incompetence isn't being a "dick" it just means one still has a spine and a functioning set of huevos.

without getting into, i dunno Stoicism n' shit, there's a lot in that sentance that's are down to you and how you deal with stuff.
"Stoicism": Bending over and letting them drive it deeper and then thanking them for the abuse. Businesses can get away with stuff like this because sheeple just lay down and take it.

I wouldn't have to "deal with stuff" if GC had simply handled their business correctly.

At any rate so far no refund, no license, no communication, nothing.

From GC's purchase terms:

"In the event of a pricing error, Guitar Center will do one of the following: (1) if an item's correct price is lower than our stated price, we will charge the lower amount and ship you the item; or (2) if an item's correct price is higher than our stated price, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before shipping or cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation".


Ok pick one GC....at this point I don't care which. Product or full refund either one....not rocket science. :shrug:

There's way too many pricing mistakes out there. This market is over saturated and most of us don't need anything and for me I'm overwhelmed with synths and plugins. I get the anger but how often do we buy because it's a deal? I want to learn to say no.

I really wonder how all these "mistakes" happen these days. Call me a conspiracy theorist, but, it always makes me wonder if it isn't cold purpose. With all those stores going head over heels with discounts at this time of the year, it may be an intentional way of creating attention and clicks.

It's either that, or they really have more and more donkeys working for them.

Occam’s Razor for me is it’s not the result of some five dimensional chess marketing strategy, but the effect of assigning someone inexperienced a task they’re not up to doing. These companies get hit with massive amounts of stock and pricing changes for Black Friday many of which come at the last minute, physical stores get loads more walk-ins, call centres more calls, if these places don’t up their staff numbers to cope then something has to give.

What are you talking about? If a merchant returns the money it’s not a crime. Sometimes it takes them a couple days to do it, but it’s not like they’re running off with it.

Besides, the margin on a lot of software is minimal. Shops like JRR are selling some of these licenses for nearly cost. And here you are asking them to lose money because you want to get something for an absurdly low price.

If you hold everyone to your cheapass standards you’re just going to get fewer smaller resellers that want to put up with that your shit and further whittle down competition. The only ones who would continue to sell it would be those who don’t give a f**k about losing a few dollars…like corporations. They do this because they’re willing to lose a few dollars if that means crushing smaller businesses.

This makes you a dick.
