My story

I'm french and I decided to order a Gretsch drumkit in september 1998. Gretsch drums are not imported in Europe so the only solution for me was to find a store in the US that would ship the drums in France. After contacting different stores, I chose to order the drumkit from Thoroughbred Music Tampa FL, I paid over $3500 cash in September 98.
The drums arrived in France on May 99. A snare drum and 2 lugs were missing, 2 rims mount were not the good ones and the hoops on one tom were different that the other ones. I tried to contact Thoroughbred Music but an email autoresponder told me that they were now Sam Ash. I then contacted Sam Ash and had to wait more than 1 month and send around 10 emails and faxes for them to give me an RA number.
I had to pay for sending back the wrong rims mounts and hoops on June 99, then I had to wait until January 2000, 6 months!!!, for them to answer althought I had sent dozens and dozens of emails and faxes in the meantime and had to pay a lawyer in France for sending them 2 registered letters in September and December 1999 to no avail.

Thanks to Sam Ash, I am still waiting for the missing items.
They always refused to send the items that I send them back for exchange after they told me to do so.

THAT IS ROBBERY

I was stupid enough for paying cash, I use to pay cash to my local store,
I have better prices and service this way, but
once Sam Ash has got your money you don't exist anymore.
