My Expieriance aka "Turning the Tables"

I have found my best deals on used equipment there. Since most of the people that work there are clueless, I have on occasion found used gear in good shape. Course I know what the going price is on the equipment, then offer a deal to them. they always take it. Got one guitar for half its street price. I didnt have the heart to take advantage of them on a Taylor 514C. They had tagged it ats a 410. Iasked the guy what I could have it for . He said $700, which at the time was he going price on a Taylor 410. I then pointed out to him it was really a 514C with a price closer to $2400. He told me , "No , is a 410!" I told him to look in the sound hole and tell me what the tag says. He turned "4 shades of white" !!! After thanking me several dozen times, he said they will take care of me on any purchases I want in the future. Needless to say, there have been a few times they did on the used equipment....
