Don't you have to pay MSRP for your gear?

Man... Don't even get me started on how much my Export cost me... & that was back in '96.

Yeah dude, I like I said ages ago... Where I live, loans & hire purchases go hand in hand with music gear.

Man. How is the overall economy as far a gas prices and such?. I was in my COM101 class yesterday and a guy said in his speech, that there has been over 200 million barrels of oil found in the heart of Mexico somewhere. I think that our economy will take a turn for the better as soon as we get Raisin Face out of office. :D :( :D

You guys have a point, We are the ones complaining about GC and there recent changes, and you guys don't even have a Guitar Center. Don't you have to pay MSRP for your gear?

That's why I shop(ped) with the Mom-and-pop stores.  They're willing to work with you and want you back as a customer.  The everyday prices are great, and if they have a sale, that's it.  I've been to Guitar Center many times, but I've never bought anything from them.  In fact, I haven't even been to the local GC in over a year.   
When you've done your very best, do even better.

Yeah our economy is not doing well at all but it'd be the same as whats going on in the States. Whatever happens with you guys usually trickles down to us.

Finance companies closing down left, right & center. Our manufacturers (We've only got like 5 big manufacturers) affect the whole country when 1 or 2 shutdown. People foreclosing on their houses or having to move overseas cause the cost of living is just too much.

Gas prices (as of right now) are:

Diesel: $4.07US/gallon
91: $5.51US/gallon
95: $4.96US/gallon
98: $5.80US/gallon

I had to convert to gallons cause we deal in litres. And the prices are still rising...

That is just Awful. >:( It burns me up every time I have to buy gas because I remember back a few years ago ppl were complaining because gas was at $2.00 I would love to have that back now man. I barely get over a Quarter of a tank with $10.00! :o :(

Michigan Homes are Foreclosing left and right man. Homes in our neighborhood a few years ago were reaching as high as $500,000. Now those same houses that are only like 2-4 years old are going into foreclosure and people are nabbing them up for around $200,000 and they are like 4000 Square Ft. Homes :( Its just getting worse and worse man.

I just pray that this will end soon. Y'all goin' see me on a Moped if gas gets any higher.

Gas here is about $3.70 for 89 Unleaded fuel. In my other Mustang(V8) I used Premium Fuel, but with this car I simply cannot afford to fill it up with Premium Fuel. Man something has got to be done man.

Man I remember my freshamn year of college back in 1987.  Gas was around $0.87 a gallon.  I could fill up my car for about $14.00(if that much) and ride.  Now I have an SUV and I'm lucky if $20 gives me a quarter of a tank.

And the foreclosure thing is rampant here in TN as well.  Big business is gonna have to give in if people stop buying.  That bottom line aint looking so good when people can't afford to give you business.

Yeah we bought the F150 Lariat about 3 years back and it had a 5.4 liter v8 in it. It sucked gas like crazy. 20 bucks barely got us to a quarter. We traded it in and my mom bought her an Edge and it averages around 19 MPG City. I think that is good compared to the 10 MPG we average in the city with the F150 :D.

Now car companies are practically giving away SUV's, simply because people refuse to buy them due to gas prices. Having and SUV is like paying another car note every month.
