What are the odds?

I call in to the local shop to see if I can get a deal on the Albert Lee they have had hanging there for about a year.

The guy who had it up on consignment picked it up 2 days prior. Aaaargh!!!

I almost ordered a new pickguard prematurely.

I'm not sure if you guys know how it feels, but it sucked

Maybe you can get the guy's name from the store and buy it from him directly?

Yeah, I asked. They didn't want to share, cause they expect an mm90 soon. I still want the sss.

I scoured the local kijiji and craigslist hoping to find it there - nothing.

That's not what I consider good customer service.....

The timing sucks on that!

I would hope that they wouldn't give out another customers information. If they did, I would have serious reservations about shopping there....

Good point, however they could easily put the seller in contact with a buyer....

I actually referenced this event in another thread here concerning albert lee pickguards, and found out another forum member was actually in touch with the owner of the same guitar; the guy just changed his mind.

It seems even if I could get in touch with the guy, he was no longer letting it go.

Abso-freaking-lutely! That would be completely inappropriate, if not actually illegal in some countries!!
