I was posting over on the Ernie Ball site, when one of the guys over there why trying to sale his brand new YB EVH Charvel. He wants the same amount that he paid for it($2700), when I asked him where the hell he bought it from that he paid so much, here was his reply.

my first mistake was putting a deposit on it through ed romain guitars. they assured me that they were going to get the most guitars from charvel and that i would get my guitar quicker.
i believed them and gave them a $500 deposit. i was told that i would have a guitar by the end of nov.
well then charvel didn't ship guitars like they had promised, so i called ed romain and asked for my deposit back, because i had already bought the EBMM EVH and i was happy with that. i really didn't want it anymore. (i didnt tell them that though)
they refused to refund my deposit. so i had to buy the guitar. end of story
it was my own stupid fault, i got all hyped up about these new EVH's...i fell for the hype.

then someone made fun of him , and made a statement about Ed always yelling, and so he posted this

That is funny that you wrote that, because he yelled at me too!! He told me that the deposit was non-refundable. I told him that i never signed anything stating that my deposit was not refundable. Ed got all pissy and said well then get a lawyer and sue me! I was in MI he was in Vegas...he knew i was hopping a plane to get my deposit back!
The really funny part of this story is that after this yell fest between ed and I, the salesman called me back 25 minutes later and said ED somehow produced a guitar for me in 25 minutes and that it would be shipping the next day! Maybe i sounded like a lawyer! he is such a FU****' Ass****!!!
Well, it was either lose my $500 deposit or buy the guitar? At least i have the guitar.

The **** up part is that I was real close to finally biting the bullet and deal with Ed Roman,( I have been wanting a JET Guitar for awhile now, BTW if anyone has any opinions on them let me know), but this shit even scares me off more. Since I started with message boards about 5 years ago. I have heard nothing but horror stories about the guy and his shop. Which I have been to once in Vegas when they 1st opened there. Didn't buy anything, I was just turned off by the whole thing.
