Who says the market for vintage drums is soft??
Let's see if the seller actually get's the $$ first. I've seen things happen when they get this high and then things go wrong after its all over. Next thing you know, it's relisted a week or two later and never does a repeat on the high figure.
BBK, the market is never soft for a hard to find, rare, or super desireable, as this one is!
Hmmm... and I have TWO of these, both near MINT condition, late 1969 build and only a few hundred away from each other on the serial numbers in WMP and COW, StickChoppers, NO MUFFLERs... exactly like Buddy's! I was offered $2500.00 for both of them from a very well respected/known vintage drum dealer... but they're not for sale as they are part of my dedicated "Buddy Rich Snare Drum Collection". It would leave a gaping hole were I to sell them. That was indeed a nice price though! Maybe one day... but not yet! $700.00 PLUS is very impressive for a early 70's model in "gingeraled" silver sparkle though! The seller of this drum is a very good friend of mine. The items he sells are always in just beautiful condition!
