"Guitar Center Wants To Pay Their Slaves Fairly".....Said No One Ever.....
Funny thing is that I was looking on eBay for strings recently, I wanted some Elixer strings for a guitar I don't play very much. I noticed the cheapest place in the UK was actually a store just 6 miles away who were selling them for $8.
I jumped in the car and when I asked for them guy says that's $12, $8 was just for online purchases.
People who work on 100% commission selling anything are crazy. Especially after 2008. Unless you're living at home with Ma and Pa rent free, I don't see how anyone can survive with that kind of job.
Well, that's a pretty big umbrella you've got over the self employed. An independent contractor like a plumber or electrician has a better chance at selling the service they can provide.
I'm saying that working on 100% commission selling Elixir strings along with luxury items like Ed's over priced Frankenstriped pedals is nothing short of craziness, especially in lean times.

Agree totally. It was rough, but could be done back in the day - I made decent money. However, my friends still working music retail (I got out after a brief managerial stint well over a dozen years ago, never looked back) are hating it these days... I feel bad for them.

Yeah, sales people are hurting all over, no matter what they're selling. The salesman with my company often look as though they want to run right through the big conference room window, but we're only on the 4th floor and that's not quite high enough to absolutely get the job done.
