Actually, I think the minimum is 249. There are several items that call for three payments of 83 dollars or something. What's cool is that you can simply add a couple small things to get your order up to 249.00, and you then can have the Payment plan.
Music 123 emailed me back after I sent them a copy of my second post in this thread. the tech said he would make sure it got in the right hands. Is it possible these other companies are simply unaware of what AMS is doing, and how many customers they have? I told the guy at M123 that if they implemented a plan like that the word would spread like fire in these groups and small studio groups. It would be smart for a few other companies to start doing this. AMS is cleaning up while they are the only ones offering a payment plan like that.
I wouldn't think that a company would even have to have Vis permission or anything. I gues AMS can just decide to charge a card three times with the onwers okay. That means these other companies could just simply *Decide* to start doing this and they could, as simple as that. It seems AMS has found out that the risk of a bad apple or two is worth it to have hundreds of orders pouring in from people because of this plan. As I said, they have been getting over $200 a month from me for what seems like a year now. I am constantly shopping at their site and as soon as I pay one thing off, I am ordering something else. I have two payments left on
my Zoom MRS-802 recorder. I also got the USB port for it, so I will be paying them about $210 for two more months, and I am already shopping hard for my next purchase. I want a mic pre, but they don't have many brands to choose from. they Carry the Meek stuff, and SP, Avalon, presonus and
Focusrite. The only one I might consider would be the Presonus MP20 and upgrade it with Burr Browns and Jensens. I really want an RNP, but no dice because they don't carry it. No other stores that do carry have a payment plan. That's why I started this thread. So, afetr all this, it turns out that we have another thread connected to the RNP

The minimum for the payment plan is $300. BUT, that seems to include the total of your bill. For example, I just bought a Numark TTX1 turntable (B-stock) that was $279, but since I added a cartridge and a phono pre to the order, that brought the total to over $300 and made it eligible for the EZ plan.
. Some of you are aware I almost got scammed out of 1000.00 bucks from making a poor decision on this site but seeing this American Musical Supply has brought me joy. After getting my money back today from this deal gone bad, I was skeptical about looking at ebay and then very skeptical about tryin to buy the Avalon I have been after from a audio board.
