A few minutes after placing a ~$500 order, I tried to cancel the order over the phone. Even though it had not been processed yet, I was told that it could not be stopped and my only option was to refuse delivery. Subsequently, I was charged nearly $40... Read full review...

ZZound promises great shipping rates but refuses to follow through. We were told that they were going to ship a Yamaha YDP223 digital piano to me for a set price, but when it came to doing it, they dropped the ball. We had many calls unreturned, empty... Read full review...

False advertising followed by excuses.   |   by soundoff2005
Oct 4, 2005
zZounds has this guarantee that they will "Beat" any advertised price. Well, I found a better price on an amp and contacted them about it by their 'Spy' challenge e-mail system. They wrote back and said: "It's unusual but we can't beat or match this... Read full review...

I placed a small order with zzounds for some cables that Musician's Friend didn't have in stock. Since I live in New Jersey, where zzounds is located, delivery was amazingly fast... Read full review...

Personally i would order from zZound again due in part to their fast and efficient order procedures, not to mention the no-sales tax part (except New Jersey folks) which really does add up after a few bucks; i had placed an order over the weekend and... Read full review...

I had a horrible experience trying to order over $3000 worth of equipment. The on-line data was incorrect with regard to shipping and stock status. The phone sales person who tried to rectify that ended up sending the wrong package to my house. I never... Read full review...

This store is ridiculous. A guitar I ordered was missing a part, so I called them up to request it and have it shipped to me. So what do they do? They send me ANOTHER GUITAR?! That one STILL doesn't have it. So instead of getting it repaired they... Read full review...

Horrible Customer Service. I ordered an item that was listed as "ships today!". Unfortunately they have a wacky credit charge system and after 3 days of hasteling with my credit card company and zzounds.com, the order still hasn't been filled. So... Read full review...

I called zZounds.com seeking advice on a monaural microphone I'd read about online. The employee was very patient and helpful, pointing out that I could get a much better quality stereo mike (and one that he, also a musician, used himself) for about... Read full review...

I ordered a Casio electronic keyboard with AC adapter, a stand for the keyboard, and a set of headphones. I opted for free shipping, and everything arrived, precisely as ordered and in perfect condition, two days later. I couldn't have been more... Read full review...

Don't order anything from zzounds! I had the worst customer service experience of my life with them - they sent the wrong piano bench, which I had to send back twice. Then it took me 1 full month to get my piano because of mistakes with the address and... Read full review...

Zzounds not that aztounding   |   by bozodaklone
Sep 30, 2002
Like many Internet retailers, this one falls short of promises. The "price spy" thing is bogus. The salespeople won't give you a lower price over the phone, even if you give the URL of another retailer with the lower price. Sweetwater and MF will give... Read full review...

Zzounds is deceptive   |   by nbaybak

I love using Zzounds for research and information, but their service leaves a lot to be desired. I purchased from them a keyboard on which they were going to match the price, and only found out when it arrived that they had charged my credit card for... Read full review...

Great online shopping experience   |   by jmvisaya

I recently started playing the guitar, and went shopping - both at retailers and online - for a decent guitar to start on. I found the major online merchants (Zzounds, musiciansfriend, and SamAsh) to be much cheaper than the local stores. This was due.. Read full review...
