Cool. I tried several epiphone lp before I bought my ltd ec401. Some of the epis were quite nice, but for one reason or other, I didnt bond with any of them. I gave my ltd to my brother in law when I bought my gibson les paul tribute. Had I known you were looking for a les paul style, I'd have shipped it to you. If I had kept the ltd, I'd have had to have different frets installed. Let us know how you get on with it.Quote:

I do love the look of offset Vs, so it kinda sucks.Quote:

Alright so lesson learned: Do not order shit that isn't shipped by Amazon.
I ordered this jacket back in early June that looked nice and had decent reviews. It said free shipping but I neglected to notice that it wasn't shipped by Amazon. Didn't fit and quality was shit so naturally I asked to refund it.... then the games started. The seller sent me a few emails in a row offering stupid shit like a 25% discount to keep it 'and give it to someone in need' at first, then 40%, and then after I wasn't responding to that shit they finally said "ok we'll accept it back, you pay for shipping." Whatever, $40 jacket, $12 shipping, that's lame but worth it.
So I ship it back... and I wait, and I wait... and I get a return label in the post. I run down to the post office: The item is returned 'unclaimed.' Canada Post wants another $12 to give it back to me as they've now shipped it back. So I said nope, you keep it. I'm now contacting amazon directly to let them know this company is awfully suspicious with their refunds and isn't accepting return shipping. I'm not sure if amazon will be able to help but worth asking (I think they have that a-z guarantee but I've never had to use it before). Hopefully they'll boot this seller from their platform.
Fuck you.
Yeah, it happens but it's rare. There are gonna be shady people no matter where you buy them from. It's becoming really rare on Amazon to actually find a re-seller that doesn't use Amazon for the shipping, but there's still a few. We had a similar situation when the kid wanted a backpack last year before school started. The one she wanted was ONLY available through a third party seller on Amazon and they did their own shipping. It went back and forth between me and the seller for weeks before I finally had to get Amazon involved and they made good on it by canceling the order and getting my money back.Quote:

So this time we splurged and got a highly rated set and a pricey set too, but it should last.

Had a coupon for 20% off, so that knocked $120 off that price, so we figured it was a good deal and now was the time to do it. Actually looking forward to getting them. :lol:
Love you... hate non-stick.
600 for cookware (in the states too...) is a lot of money for a 13 piece set.Quote:

You still had to use some water I recall but the pans did last a long, long time.
When we were looking, there's cookware sets that cost well over $1,000 for the same amount or less pieces.Quote:
