Let me first start this by saying that I have no issues with any on-line or mail order businesses. I know many that deliver superb customer support and really take care of their customers.
So my question is how many people buy Ukulele's sight unseen? For me buying a Ukulele is a lot like buying a Motorcycle Helmet, yes I can buy it on-line but I am never sure that I will be getting the right size or fit. In Ukulele's it's more of a sound and appearence factor.
Maybe my wife has had too much influence on my for this but first and foremost I need to feel and hear the instrument, to me they do sound different. After finding one that sounds good, the finish and appearence are important to me.
While I know and trust the manufacturers to provide a quality product, I guess I still want to select what I buy first. What do other people do to get around this? Am I just being too picky???
