Order#***** November 7, 2023 Jericho Walnut Baritone 6 String **** was super helpful in getting the sell done and helpful with getting me set up in payments. Received tracking from ***** and it has not been updated. I have called several times, left two voicemails, and multiple emails to which now I have asked for a refund to my financing accounts. There has been no response to any of the communication which in turn I chose to request the refund.Business response

We made a special split payment for this customer to pay with multiple cards and then packaged his guitar up before the weekend shipment going out (2 drop-offs per week). There is nothing out of the ordinary here. Had he not requested a refund within hours after his purchase, it would have been out the door Friday. This "several day" update issue is resolved because the guitar was not scanned in, so now that the Holiday Weekend is over and Monday Morning has finally come, we will process this request.
Leaving one calendar day between phone calls, two voicemails, and several more emails is a sure way to get a response within our 24 hour window required for responses. (see FAQ ***** hours). Luckily, someone was monitoring the messages and held your guitar back instead of shipping it, so you could get your refund without also getting the guitar.Initial Complaint

I paid for a guitar in the amount of $1099.99 on July 30th 2022, it was a preorder i tried to reach out to the company to refund me and cancel my order before shipping but i was unable to reach anybody and the card i used got issued to another bank so refunding the card wouldn't have worked. So I let it go after multiple calls trying to reach someone and decided to try out the guitar. Today April 11th 2023 i received the guitar and i really don't like it it's awful. i tried calling again and left 2 voicemails no answer also sent and email through their website no e mail back. I am willing to pay to ship the guitar back i have no problem with that i would just like the money i paid for the guitar back. order #***** i can forward the email with proof of payment to an email address if needed.Business response

**** bought a Pre-Order for a production that shipped before the date we set aside for shipping, April 15th. He got it on the 11th;
*****************************************************He said he didn't like it, but he actually requested a refund last year right after he bought it. In full honesty, we didn't read this message because we confirmed his address just before shipping and he sent it, that email is attached. As a result, we sent his guitar. He asked for a refund the next day, so he is shipping it back to us. This is that tracking number;
*****************************************************
When the package gets here we will obviously process his refund. Pretty complicated, I realize, but for lack of a better term, its been a hassle to get the details straight.

They received the guitar on Monday I emailed them yesterday twice they have a real problem communicating. They now have the guitar and my money and still have not told me how they plan on getting me my money back because again the card I used to buy the guitar is gone and no longer in service. How hard is it to just tell me how your going to give me my refund?Business response

Hey, I will type here this last sentence and the proof of that is on the original message;

In addition to this, the package was sent to a return address which delivered Monday, we received it today here, we are inspecting this package to make sure its actually in there, then we will refund his original amount back to the original transaction, as we would anyone who requests a refund. In this case, we will give him his entire transaction amount instead of charging the repackaging fee. The original comment still remains concise in this circumstance, I will repost it here;

Refund is done, attached is the refund tied to the initial transaction to prevent any issues with banking. We are not a financial institution so if there is some issue with a financial institution, please contact them with your records and they will give you your money.
To finalize, This is a typical transaction process best done with patience and understanding.

- Transaction date: Tuesday, July 5 - Money sent to business: $1,043.99 USD - Business committed to provide an electric guitar instrument - Dave M******* from Jericho Guitars contacted me after a purchase made on his website stating that the item ordered was out of stock due to COVID. I promptly asked for a full refund, yet it has been over two weeks without refund. - The business has seemingly not made any effort to solve the problem. Jericho Guitars seems to only have a single support agent (Dave M******* himself). I have called the company quite a few times only to be redirected to voicemail, which also went unanswered. I have sent several emails to Dave requesting a refund which have gone unanswered. - (Order #XXXXX) (July 5, 2022)Business response
