From the reviews
I bought a guitar from their site back in 2015. I was impressed with the customer service and the quality of the guitar. Can't recommend them more!
Bought a guitar and shipped it all the way to South Africa without issues. Guitar arrived an perfect condition. Very happy!
I found an item on ebay and searched their name. Was able to call and speak with them. Got right through and they were very nice and helpful. Prompt shipment and the item looks great. Very happy.
I've had great experiences with this shop. They communicate quickly and ship things out very fast with proper packaging. I highly recommend buying from here.
Selling or trading gear at Gear Orphanage
Gear Orphanage comes up for buying and trading used gear — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the trip go better. First, bring the whole package: the case or gig bag, the original tremolo arm or bridge parts, the paperwork if you have it — a complete rig is worth real money more than a bare instrument, and it saves the back-and-forth of "can you bring the case in?" Second, know that trade credit almost always beats the cash offer, usually by a healthy margin — if you're upgrading anyway, price your old gear as a trade against the new one before you take cash. Either way, expect the offer to be below what the gear sells for on the wall; the gap is the store's margin for setup, warranty, and sitting on it until the right buyer walks in.
