WWBW financing?

Post by bort »

Does anyone out there have any *real* experience with the WWBW financing option? I'm curious if it's a good idea, how well it's worked for others, etc.

Please PM or e-mail me with any replies. Thanks! :tuba:

I did a Music 123 finance deal four or five years ago. Probably the same deal since the companies are the same. It was just a vendor limited credit card serviced by one of the big card companies, Chase I think. I paid it off quick because the interest rate was about 20%. No problems, just a high rate.
I am fortunate to have a great job that feeds my family well, but music feeds my soul.

Okay, so I'm a bit of a credit card dummy...(I pay cash/in full whenever possible). What does this mean exactly? So if I wanted to buy a $7,500 tuba...the benefit is...paying it over 12 months with no interest? Or...? :lol:
