Convenient, Yet way too expensive between charges, tax, and shipping!

A spurious Alvarez J-200 which was described as excellent was anything but! Dents, dings and scratches in abundance and the truss rod is maxed out & cannot take the concave out of the neck/finger board can't be adjusted. Seller not willing to refund.

Customer service is awful. I returned a guitar. The seller told reverb that the seller received the guitar back. The seller wanted to refund me. But reverb would not allow it until I provided pictures of the guitar, that I no longer had! They won’t connect you to a supervisor. They just hang up on you when you call the number. They disconnect the chat without answering your questions.

I don’t like the fact that reverb does not have a phone support. I have been trying to get a refund for a week and I feel like I’m trying to get a dumb computer to help me out. I just want to call someone and get it figured out. I’m I really that unimportant????

I think the idea of this site is good but the folks running it are crooks! Over $300.00 to see a fkg guitar! $94.00 to bump and they hide the cost till end of auction!!!! Should be illegal! Bad people doing bad things to good musicians. Sad fkg world we live in these days. :(

Magic Pedal seller kept toying with my 4 offers for a guitar, by not responding. He did, saying he was busy. I did get a response from seller saying he thought the guitar was worth "twice" as much. I ordered it finally full price and within hours, received a guitar no longer available message. I made chat contact with Reverb, Karla D., which isn't an easy feat as one is directed to a virtual chat assistant. I sent my complaint of this passive aggressive seller to Karla D., in chat. Before I knew it, she ended the cha t session, apparently uninterested in any complaints. Poor business practices from Reverb and the seller, Magic Pedal in this case. Can this happen to someone else, looking for a piece of equipment? I get it, keep your buyer frustrations to yourself!

Reverb's policies don't stand up for the buyer when it really counts. I purchased an item, it was accepted, gave the credit card, the money changed hands fine, and the seller told me that it'd be shipping out shortly. The seller then reneged, and refunded me all in one swoop. I complained to Reverb, but there was no recourse, as the seller had already refunded me. Why Reverb allows a seller to do this (renege on agreement) is beyond me. The seller probably made a side deal and got more money. Another kicker is that I'm not allowed to leave a review for the seller (Bob's Gear Outlet in NH), on the Reverb site, as it was never shipped.

Reverb will not allow me to receive payment (for an item I sold) via my PayPal account. They had no issue using my PayPal account when I purchased items. This is nonsense.

Ive used reverb for a long time, I recently sold a guitar with no bump at $490, only to actually get $373. I very upset as this was never presented to me. Not using this website again.

The Lack of timely customer service and communication is alarming. They were previously great to deal with. I wonder if they went to a lower cost outside customer service company. I will not be in a hurry to list any more items with them until they address this problem.
