I recently recieved my order of a guitar from you that came with a gig bag. However the gig bag has a rip inside of it. How should we proceed in this matter.

Horrible Customer Service - DO NOT USE THEM

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - $465 enterprise drive incompatible with our motherboard.
  • - We asked for credit to buy a compatible drive; refused, leaving us out $450.

Do not use Monoprice....horrible customer service! I recently bought a $465 enterprise drive and it was incompatible with our motherboard when my IT guy went to install it.

We asked for credit, not a refund, to replace it with a compatible drive and they refused due to the 30 day window! My IT guy was on vacation and now we're out $450 with a brand new drive they refuse to replace.

I told them I didn't want a refund...only credit to purchase the proper drive that is compatible...they again refused to even give me credit to get the right product! Horrible customer service....DO NOT USE MONOPRICE!!!!

Loss:
$469
Reason of review:
Poor customer service

Preferred solution: Credit for the proper product that is compatible with my PC

I know the feeling of Monoprice selling defective items. I purchased an HDMI cable, which did not work.

They sent me another one and that one did not work. I ended up purchasing one from Target and that works perfectly, which indicates their "superior" cables are not worth a ***!
