tdm71 Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 Hi there- I ordered my Motif ES8 from instrumentpro.com about two weeks ago. I just checked in with them to see how things are going and if there is any ETA for the ES. Well, instrumentpro has been told everytime they call Yamaha that only a "few Guitar Centers natinowide have the ES and they are only demo models and not for sale. Also, NO ONE else has them except for a select few GC's and they are not for sale". Now I know this is not entirely true and that MANY people have reported walking into the local Sam Ash and GC and walking out with one the same day. Multiple units of different models are also being seen around in the same stores. I relayed this info to by retalier but they tell me that Yamaha keeps telling them the same info over and over again. Can you help me regarding this situation and see what can be done here to clarify this misunderstanding and at least when product can be expected?? I realize the demand is very high but but my retalier is left in the dark here with some mis-information and I am one lonely (missing the keyboard that is) ES owner to be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Martin Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 All backorders (orders placed before last week) are shipping this month.

tdm71 Posted September 25, 2003 Author Share Posted September 25, 2003 Hi Mike, I tried e-mailing you a couple times but didn't hear any updates regarding my case yet. I just received my cc statement with the FULL CHARGE of the ES8 on there and I have no ES to show for it or do not know when it will show up. Before I pay for it, can you help me clear things up with Instrumentpro or at least let me know when they can expect shipment? BTW: They are a authorized Yamaha dealer correct?

Mike Martin Posted September 25, 2003 Share Posted September 25, 2003 Just wanted to clarify, the ES6's and some ES7's are here and already on there way out the door. The ES8's won't be here until the very end of the month. -Mike Martin Casio Mike Martin Photography Instagram Facebook The Big Picture Photography Forum on Music Player Network The opinions I post here are my own and do not represent the company I work for.

tdm71 Posted September 25, 2003 Author Share Posted September 25, 2003 GREAT !! So I can expect them (instrumentpro) to have them a few days after the 30th?? Is there anyone that I can have instrumentpro verify this with so they will know when to expect it also? Also, they are an authorized Yamaha reseller correct?

tdm71 Posted October 3, 2003 Author Share Posted October 3, 2003 MIke- I spoke with Instrumentpro this week and they still have not received any word from Yamaha re: the ES8. In fact there were told as of this week, info that contradicts a 9/30 shipment. Can you tell me for sure wether or not Instrumentpro.com was sent any ES8's on 9/30 and when they can expect product? Thanks and I look forward to your reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RABid Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 You can also search ebay. Do the advanced search on closed items. If one has auctioned in the last 30 days you will see the final price.
