Title: Best place to buy Hipshot products?
Post by: MattK on February 16, 2008, 03:13:13 PM: Hey guys,

Who has the best price on Hipshot stuff? I seem to remember someone mentioning a good place to buy from, but I can't remember who it was.

Thanks!

Yes, you can. But they sell at full retail list, so that they don't undercut stores who buy wholesale from them. But there are online sources (and some local stores) who sell at a discount off list. Like John Wymore.

Same thing is true of Allparts. The bulk of their business is wholesale. They'll be glad to sell to you at full retail, but they're not about to undercut their own store accounts by discounting.

Am I missing something?

Post by: uwe on March 08, 2008, 10:33:56 AM: Yes, Dave, you are. A green iguana (like I have two plus a black one) in Wymore Guitars' avatar. Squint your eyes old man! ;D

Lizards influence sound.

I'm actually getting less nearsighted as I get older. Gained half a diopter last exam. Maybe I'll be 20/20 by the time I'm 100.

Nope, just a resident of the hotel in Puerto Vallarta I stayed at last week. His name is Iggy!!

I had a small Iguana as a pet once. He was a mean Mo Fo!!

Here's a bigger view .... not a bad pic considering I was zoomed in from about 20 feet away!!
