So I've been wanting a DK2S for a while. I regularly search the GC used site. The best prices I've found have been about $450-$500. Tonight I search and I find one in Seattle in purple for $275!!
Needless to say I'm on the phone and the deal is on. I talk to the guy make arrangements and it's payment time. I grab my GC card (6 months interest free you know) and then it hits me. This might be my older card. GC canceled my first account for lack of use. I give my old card to my 3 year old to play with. So the guy runs it and says it's the old one. I say hold on and let me look for it. Frantic search=no card. I let him go to call GC and get the account number. As soon as I hang up I find the card! I call back.
Guy" Did you just call here a second ago and talk to someone else about the guitar?"
Me. "No"
Guy" Hold on we might have a problem."
Pause.
Guy "I'm sorry but it just sold to a guy on Long Island. While I was waiting for you to call back he called and bought the guitar."
Unbelievable.
