Heads up about ordering Miraphone gig bags online...

Post by bort »

Not sure what it's like if you order by phone...

But looking at ordering a Miraphone gig bag from WWBW online, they wanted to charge me $41 for shipping.

For the same bag, ordering through Amazon (with the order fulfilled by WWBW), it is FREE shipping.

I'm still not sure if that's what I'll order, but dang, $41??

Hi-
WWBW is a lot like Dell in the PC mags-in the same issue of a mag, Dell will sometimes advertise the SAME computer 2 or 3 times but each one will have different price.

I bought a gig bag recently from Musicians Friend--the same company as WWBW or Music123--but buying it from Musicians Friend--the same exact thing as advertised with WWBW and Music123--was $45 cheaper, and had free shipping. If you want to order anything from WWBW/Music123/MusiciansFriend--check out ALL 3--don't assume they will have the same item at the same price--they should all be the same, but esp. with accessories, that is not always the case.

P.S.--I just checked all three sites--shipping on Miraphone tuba gig bags DOES APPLY at WWBW, BUT shipping is FREE at Music123 AND Musicians Friend---same bag, same price, free shipping from 2 of the three stores.....

Good luck.
