If more Employees were like Louis

I If more employees were like Louis, corporations around the world would be making much more money… Let me start out by saying I am in the customer service field (corporate banker) and I can tell you Louis’ customer service and quality insurance is a 10+ by a mile. He never spoke down to me or in a pretentious way. He was kind, courteous and willing to listen to what you had to say, I asked him a question that was actually quite silly however he didn’t laugh at me, he understood that I was the customer! I could go on And pontificate on his (HOW TO) treat people and be a valued employee. Like “Louis”.Who Understands That it’s important to (LISTEN) while I (the customer) Have to advise him with what it is I need. And we took off from there, purchased the (Kramer SM 1 ORANGE CRUSH), (mentioned above. And some other things.I haven’t had any problems so I can’t really go down that avenue… “Good on ya Mates” — I would like to request that this message will be shared with all immediate and upper management Immediately please! He deserves the recognition and he should get some! — I spoke to Sweetwater few days ago After seeing….. And they were willing to give me awesome deals because of the purchase size & holiday sales.And even small gestures like throwing in a few T-shirts with their logo and some small things like that along with extremely good prices. I would like you to know that I was not going to make a purchase that day before I talk to Louis or someone @ ( Chicago Music Exchange) I’m hopIng you guys could match it or come close? I would rather give you my business. I have been treated wonderfully no matter whom I’ve Spoken with call Mont you’ve put together a great team… As I said 3 weeks ago I purchased the (Kramer SM 1 Superstrat) The “orange crush”. I love it so much I am going to be purchasing Another one on Monday along with the other gear I mentioned and then some. “Please, please do your best to get this to management and upper management“ I’d like to thank all of you again will talk to you Monday, Steven Gallagher

We're right off the CTA Brown Line 'Paulina' Stop Just North of Belmont and just West of Ashland.

We’re all musicians here at Chicago Music Exchange and we want you to love the gear you get from us. We understand that sometimes you get a piece of gear that doesn’t work out for you. That’s why we offer an easy return policy to take the stress out of purchasing from us.

If you decide you'd like to return an item, please contact your Sales Rep, chat us, or give us a call.

If you placed your order on Amazon or eBay, we advise issuing the return request from your account on the platform of purchase - our Customer Service team will process a refund upon receipt of the item(s).

Most new items may be returned within 30 days of delivery and most vintage & used items may be returned within 3 days of delivery for a full refund, exchange, or store credit. Please pack the product safely for the journey back to us. If the product was shipped for free, the charge will be deducted from refund, unless the reason for the return is outside normal circumstances.

Please contact us as soon as possible if your order was received incorrectly, damaged, or defective. Most times we will give you an RA number (Return Authorization). Why is that number important? This will allow us to speed up the process of the return.

We reserve the right to charge a restocking fee based on the return condition. Some items we just can’t take back for returns, due to a one time function like strings or drums heads and other times it’s not sanitary to do so with microphones or harmonicas. If you aren’t sure if what you bought falls into a category like this, call us (773) 525-7773!

We strive to get your return processed quickly. Most of the time we have it done within two business days. Funds going back to credit cards usually takes two to four business days. CME strives to make sure all customers are happy with their experience. It is our priority to provide great service along with great gear. We always want to be helpful, and open to your feedback. Please let us know your thoughts! If you have any questions, we’re here for you!
