Center Guitar
Are guitar prices at Guitar Center negotiable?
I was thinking of buying an acoustic at Guitar Center. They have price tags and also prices online. I was wondering though, in store, are you allowed to negotiate prices as you would with a piano or a car?
And if you can, how much should you try to bring it down to? Percent Wise?
How would you start off bargaining?
Like pick up a 500 dollar guitar and say, “I’ll pay 400 for it!” at the place where you pay?
Or how would you go about bargaining?
Yes, the prices are negotiable. I know because I’ve negotiated prices there. The employees are largely paid on commission, so they have to have bargaining room in order to close sales.
So haggle your heart out!!
EDIT: Oh, gosh, you asked about percentage, sorry. Um, I don’t really know; there is a limit to how low they can go, and they can’t do anything about the taxes. Start with something ridiculous like 30% off, and work from there.
