Yes, the reviews and rating are top notch and I cannot believe how much
stuff I have bought from them with flawless service. It is funny I have
also bought a ton of gear from Musician's Friend but am now buying from
Sweetwater because they are top notch and my salesman is very nice. Around
four years ago I bought this USB MIDI keyboard an Edirol PC50 from
Musician's Friend for around $200.00. Well I go to check my shipping
progress with UPS and I notice it is like 74 pounds or something and I go
what's up with this.

So they deliver it to my door and walk which I cannot stand. They do not
even bother to ring the bell or knock anymore. Anyway, I open the box up
and find they mistakenly sent me the whole original shipping box full of
them. I got like 7 of them for $200.00, so I call MF up and I tell them
this and they want me to box it back up and take it over to the UPS place
and ship it back after they send a return authorization to me. They would
not let UPS pick it up at my door and they never thanked me ever.

At this point in time, I realized they were really not my friend at all and
were just saying that to get my business. <g>

I really like the negative reviews so that I can get a good picture of the
product. Just love it when they have their technical ability rated at High,
and are bitching about windows not seeing the full 4 gig's of memory or the
hard drive formatted at lower than advertised, or knock off egg's because of
things that are clearly their own ignorance. It gives you a good picture of
whether the product is really bad.

I've had spotty luck with them, but that is outrageous! You try being
honest with them and they act like they are doing you a favor by giving you
a return authorization, so you should waste the time boxing it up and
driving it to UPS.
