I'm looking for some opinions on the the value of this Oaklawn Camco kit. It has an 8x12,14x14,14x20. Thanks.
Camco Price Check
Looks like they are in great shape but not a particularly attractive kit. IMHO... Cool sizes... gotta be in the 2k realm but not a 4K kit just because the finish is not very attractive. Obviously just my opinion... after all what drums are worth is whatever someone is willing to pay you for them.
It appears to be a set from which the original wrap was removed. Are the insides white or clear? If white, I think they should have had wrap. If clear, they were originally a natural finish, but the finish on them now does not look original. Of course, the photos are not great and it is a bit hard to make out the condition.
Still very valuable overall. I'd probably pay close to $2k if I was in the market for them and they had in fact been refinished. If that is original finish, they are worth a good deal more assuming the edges have not been tampered with and the hardware is all original. However, I can see at least two hoops that are not original and the rods on the bass are not original. The snare butt doesn't look correct and I question some of the parts on the rail mount.
To be on the safe side, I start somewhere around $1400-$1500 if you have an opportunity to see them in person. The details matter, so look them over carefully! Price matters even more if you are buying for resale.
What Dan said... and the floor tom legs do not look original either.
agree also about picture quality.
