Guitars... Another expensive hobby

I thought he was taking it with him?

The whole thing flopped. For some reason my default address on my PayPal was set to my old address from several years ago. The guy sent the guitar to my old address and had it returned to him... So it didn't get there in time (to my parents house) to take it with me to Korea.

Then I got back in contact with him, and told him I'll pay whatever the ridiculous cost to have it shipped to Korea. He checked with the post office and its too large a case to send to SK, so I had to take a refund.

Looks like I'm gonna be checking out the Yamaha stores here in a few weeks. What a bummer. I wanted something really special.

Wow, I'm sorry to hear that. You can't wait until you get back in the country? Seems silly to spend $500 on something you're not excited with.

Drat, that looked like a special guitar.

Well I'll be here for 2 years, and right now that $500 is pretty much going to decide on whether I'm eating instant noodles or barbequed seafood for the next few weeks until my first paycheck. I still want one, I guess it'll just be postponed for awhile.
