I sold one two years ago on ebay for $700. there was a bidding war over it. Those 18"s in stainless are very rare.

I was watching that one, too. As soon as it topped $500, I thought, "Too rich for my blood..."

> Nothing and I mean nothing compares to stainless steel

That really is a matter of personal opinion. I've sold three kits over the years because I thought they were too loud and too heavy to lug around. To each his own... my top pick sound-wise would be Geo. Way & Oaklawn Camco's, but I would never say that nothing else compares to them. Again, it's a matter of personal taste and opinion.

You confused me with some body who cares one drop what you think. No other material sounds Like stainless steel and I mean nothing it's not an opinion it's a fact jack. I remember that one metal kit you very intelligently stripped of it's Ludwig factory white paint a very rare kit leave it up to you Joke Velez???? Hey again what was it for that you are BANNED for life on the DFO FOR???

Yeah, I was simply hoping that it wouldn't go that high. At least now I know what THAT ONE went for. I suppose I'll be waiting for about a year until the next one pops up, hopefully with a bigger pile of money ready to go...
