Musictoyz.com
They rock! Their warehouse is actually around an hour from me, and man this place is sweet! Boutique heaven! I went to try out Guitars with my friend and they were very rude to us probably because we are young, but I went back a day or so later, and picked up some Lindy Fralin Real '54's, and they sold me them for $199.99! Awesome! They would have cost me $220 plus $12 for shipping and an extra $10 for a baseplate! I got it all for in all $207 or something like that, it is awesome, check these guys out.
Stuff they have:
Nash
Reverend
Rivera
I want this amp: http://www.musictoyz.com/guitar/amps/zinky.php
And no, I do not work for them, they just rock

i've had a terrible first purchase from musictoyz.com. i bought a barber electronics tonepress from them 6 months back and it took about 3 months before i got the pedal. they never answered any of my emails so after my waiting turned to months i gave them a call. i spoke to the owner, ted who said they've sent the pedal months back via USPS when i specifically selected the UPS option on their website. after a civil conversation he said he'll send another pedal to me this time via UPS. i think either he forgot to send me the pedals or he didn't have it in stock. either way he was lying when i spoke to him. i eventually received my pedals.
i gave them another shot and ordered other pedals but i gave them a call first. i've since bought 5 pedals from them without any problem. the key to dealing with musictoyz.com as i've learned the hard way is to call first if they have it in stock because their inventory on their website in not an accurate representation of what they really have in stock.
i have since stopped dealing with musictoyz.com since i dicovered pedalgeek.com

Yes, same thing here! But, there pickups and Guitars are amazing, and since I live so close by I can buy them there. But, yes, pedalgeek might be better for Pedals.

I've had 2 experiences w/ them and had ordered a Zendrive that canceled later. All communication and shipping has been great.

Their response to email is really poor, even if you say you want to BUY something. But, I have ordered from them 3 times, and it gets sent that day, so go figure. They often run a 5% discount to good customers for online purchases (one is running now through May), and that can add up on boutique stuff. I had an amp arrrive with smashed tubes, and they took it back no problem, credit was fast and amp maker called me to figure out how to avoid that in future (Swart). So, I'd buy again.

Yea, after you buy from them, you periodically get a discount offer. I'll often just take advantage of stuff I've put off getting when the discount comes rolling in.........
