glideman Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 If you have their card, it's a good time to get one for ultra cheap payments with 0% interest. I did it the last time they ran the special. It's normally 24 months, not 36 months. I am in no way affiliated with Sweetwater.

Yeah, I held out pre-ordering, was trying to fund the Helix any which way, couldn't pull it together. And then I get this email a few weeks back from Synchrony (the bank the Sweetwater card uses) that they randomly decided to increase the credit limit, so I told my Sweetwater guy I wanted to pre-order on the 24 month option, and if they went to that 36 month could he switch it up? And he said yes. A few days later got an email from Sweetwater inviting me to the 36month promo, so bam! Put in my pre-order on Friday the 13th last month. No clue when it will arrive, just living vicariously through the forums. I love that the GearPage original thread is up to 844 pages! And the clips thread on the L6 forum is getting pretty good too; Phil Miller has some nice tasty clips up on his Soundcloud page, been digging listening to what he and others are doing with the Helix.

GLiDE That's nice...but the question is do they actually have any units in stock to go with the promotion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrellM5 Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 That's nice...but the question is do they actually have any units in stock to go with the promotion? Probably not yet but it locks in the promotion. I pre-ordered mine at the beginning of July and locked in the 36 month financing. Got it mid-October.

capdoogie Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Just FYI, the 36 month credit you start paying as soon as you place your preorder! So months could go buy and your paying for something you don't have yet. The sweetwater 24 month only starts payment when helix ships. This is because they are seperate credit card banks.

Lol...what a swell deal. Where can I sign up to have Ford start billing me now for the Mustang I plan on buying sometime next year? ;) Nothing on this earth is that good...

capdoogie Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I'm also not affiliated with sweetwater. This is just what I found out some time ago. Don't take my word for it ask questions. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radatats Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I did the 36 month plan and had no problem making a couple of payments early. I beats the crap out of laying out the full amount and them deciding you don't like it. Plus I'll be done a couple months early too. It's not a separate account either, shows up on the same statement and uses the same available credit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the order from 11/13 in my Sweetwater account, and it says charge card on 12/7 (which is today), and it shows the available balance reduced, but doesn't show the Helix charge on my balance due. It includes all my previous promotional purchases together, whether 36, 24, or 6 months, but not the Helix charge. Will keep an eye on it, see when the Helix charge actually posts. I do recall my Sweetwater guy telling me about the 36month thing meaning the payments and charge would go in prior to the unit shipping, and that's how it went when I did the PRS S2. It wasn't in stock, took a few months to arrive, payments started right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
