Thanks, Dude, i love you too. I think you need to go have a great big bran muffin.
By the way, smartass, in that thread YOU wrote:
So much for YOUR ethics. Now you're agreeing with the other side?
Look, I participate here and ask questions because I want to hear what people have to say. It's called a "discussion." Discussions with controversy are called "debates." They can be valuable, y'know. Perhaps you should try engaging in one sometime.
I guess a bunch of you would rather just hear yourselves talk.
This has got to be the UNFRIENDLIEST place I've ever seen. It is not worth my time, and you, sir, are behaving like a first-class jerk.
Now that's just plain uncalled for. If you guys bothered to read that thread you would see that of COURSE I know it's wrong. I posted the question because I wanted to hear what OTHERS had to say. Even you, you disrespectful pillock!Steve Dude Barr said:

If GC has such a liberal return policy then that's their problem IMO....I have no problem with your ethics given that you're within their stated policy for returns.
Where I have an "ethical" issue is when GC takes all these 30 day returns then turns around and resells then as "new" to another customer.

My, don't we have an attitude about our precious preferences? Did it not occur you you, Einstein, that I'm here because I'm thinking about buying an EBMM bass? Would that make me worthy, O Wise One? The Carvin has Bartolinis and an Aguilar, which in most bass circles are beyond reproach.Steve Dude Barr said:
I'm flabbergasted. What, calling a dealer and asking what they want for a bass is "jerking them off?" What horsecrap! Guess what, genius: One of those calls resulted in my putting a deposit down because BC happened to have a Bongo already on its way to them. Had it been YOU I probably would have sent you my money.Steve Dude Barr said:
Well, obviously you have the attention span of a paperclip, becaue I never said that. I said they were different. I didn't say one was any better than the other. And regarding being anal retentive, is it not reasonable to want to actually try a bass out to decide if it's really right for you? Not all of us can collect a dozen basses, and I really WOULD be an idiot if I dropped $1500-plus without being sure.Steve Dude Barr said:
I never claimed to be an expert. All I did was post observations, hoping that it might help SOMEONE out. Clearly that has no value here, because every time I do somebody craps all over me.Steve Dude Barr said:
Because, dipweed, the moderator was gleefully piling on with the rest of you complaining about my attempt to actually answer somebody's question instead of shovel bullsh*t. I do know bovinehost is the moderator. Let me explain something to you: A moderator should be just that: moderate.Steve Dude Barr said:
I don't think anyone should take me seriously. Where did you read that? But I don't think people should go around getting all self-important and calling a guy an idiot just because he's trying to contribute.Steve Dude Barr said:
