Hello,I am new here and have read all the responses. It is frustrating to me too.But Mark Fenberg is cleaning and restoring my brother's rogers kit and we plan to offer it for a good price.I am grateful for all the information here and have seen in person Mark's collection. Beautiful! CatherineGroup Hug

Hi Catherine!Thanks so much for the compliments on my collection! It was fun having you over. I'm sure you enjoyed seeing your brother's Ludwig snare drum all cleaned up and ready for sale!-Mark

I miss the pre internet days.You could run wanted ads in the paper to find treasure. Also you could hit yard sales and hock shops.Now everything truly is supply and demand, cause and effect.It is what it is.

The funny thing is there are no drums left worth a darn the market is slim pickings nowadays Gary

Hi catheters as much as you been learning here it has to be overwhelming ,Sometimes it has that effect on people .But the one thing consistently here is the knowledge that we have as a community and the collection are beyond what you would expect , you can spend days going through the gallery and see the collections here done very rare others just nice , some are still coveted but others have been sold off , some here myself included buy and sell, what we all are learning is the deals are slowly disappearing as also prime stock .. because of that , prices can be very high and some times they sell for that , but that’s not the norm here , usually you sit on them and to sell fast you need to find a player that also likes vintage and at a fair price ,unfortunate as it is most up and coming drummers want new so I wish you luck on the sale Gary
