Armand is the real easter bunny.

"i am the real easter bunny... and just by some sort of coincidence... we're having an inventory sale at the same time..."

Hard to believe these commercials made them millions of dollars. I see they are only aired during the holidays now.

[RabiesAngentleman]

They're still aired? That's fantastic.

[hondolespaul]

Just the holiday ones from yesteryear are being aired, along with newer commercials featuring Armand and a gorilla. I believe he also did a recent easter bunny commercial this year and then all of a sudden, they stopped airing them. I hope to see the Christmas ones on TV again though.

Armand Is The Man

[hondolespaul]

I never did meet Armand in person. He seems like a nice guy and has made a lot of money over the past 44 years. His brothers Bruce and Blaine aren't bad guys either. I rarely go to the HOG because their prices are not easy on the wallet. They have good deals every so often, but I'm not one to wait for a sale.

[dkstryker]

yes i have to say he is more easy going than bruce. bruce is very hustly when ya want to do buisiness, were armand is very kool and real to ya.

[hondolespaul]

Personally, I never did business with Armand. I attended a guitar expo in November of last year at the HOG. Bruce got upset with my Dad over something stupid. That is one way to lose customers.

[dkstryker]

like i said, bruce doesnt care about the customers, he just cares about gettin shit out the door. what did he have an argument with your dad about man? im curious just to hear about what it was over.

[hondolespaul]

The HOG was raffling off a brand new Gibson Les Paul last year. My Dad put in too many entries, but there was no sign stating that one entry per person was necessary. When he asked Bruce about it, Bruce got all high and mighty with him.

[xraistlininblackx]

Yeah, Armand, Eric, and Armand's wife are cool. Bruce is a dick IMO. He always give me dirty looks.

[hondolespaul]

Bruce only treats people like decent human beings when they spend money at the HOG. Is Eric Armand´s son?

[xraistlininblackx]

Yes. He was making fun of me, but it was just a joke. He is cool.

@xraistlininblackx are you kidding? bruce is the nicest guy ever. a little awkward and strange, but he's so nice.
