The Music Room


Hi has anyone done business with The Music Room?  They seem legit, but their lack of a published address makes me a little nervous

Recently sold a amp to them. Got a fair price. Painless and flawless transaction. Couldn't be happier. 
Inquired about selling an almost new amplifier to them which was the latest model by a popular manufacturer.  Being a business person I understand a company needs to make a decent profit, but I was shocked at how low a price they offered.  I was informed TMR needed to pay that amount because they would only ask $x.xx price for the amp when they sell it so they couldn't pay me more.

I decided against the transaction with them and later saw they were selling the same exact model/new condition amplifier for $500 more than they told me TMR would sell it for. I prefer to not deal with them again.  I will mention that I believe I was dealing with a new employee.


TMR does okay. I’ve bought a few things from them and sold some things to them. Most everything went okay and I got fair prices.

They take on some risk buying used gear, hoping to test it as many ways as possible, storing it, listing it, spend time $ talking to people about it, and offer a reasonable return policy. Their objective is to move product, and that occurs faster by not overpaying for it to begin with. They can re-list for whatever price they want and hope a real buyer comes along, and then hoping the buyer does not return it. Seems they’ve learned to fine tuned the cycle a bit more and likely what it takes to stay in business, pay employees, and absorb some of that return risk too. You can take their offer now or sell it yourself over time and deal with offers too just like they do.
