Looking for vintage mij kit in canada

Posts: 1880 Threads: 292

Hey guys.. Just thought i'd put this out there for Canadian forum members since i'm in eastern Canada and most do not want to ship intl. I totally understand because there are always complications, plus it's more expensive..

I'm looking for some cool MIJ vintage drums in either 20-14-12 preferably, but i would consider 22-16-13 or 12 as well..

I'm open to most wrap finishes, except for the following--

Cortex or metallic, red sparkle, root beer, white marine pearl and black diamond pearl..

Any other finish or unique wrap will be considered as well.. Let me know what you've got or have found, and i'll get back to you... Or if you if find any good deals near my area i would appreciate a PM.. Anything made by the Pearl company is what i'm looking for..

Cheers !

D'oh! I know right! like the old proverb says "close only counts with horseshoes and handgrenades". Anyways I wish I could have hooked you up and I'll keep an eye out for cool MIJs/Pearl-related stuff. Of all the ones I've gotten to work on this was my fave MIJ kit:http://www.vintagedrumforum.com/showthread.php?t=44472

not in Canada but you may be able to get it cheap and maybe with the help of one of our Denver forum brothers shipped to you at a descent price. just a thought.

I'm always on craigslist down here in California. I can keep an eye out. What are you looking to spend? If I come across anything, I'll email you the link.

Thanks to all U.S forum members for contributing to my search, i really appreciate the sentiment.. Unfortunately for me, shipping from as far as Cali, or anywhere else in the states would no doubt come out to over $600 with kit price included, and for me that is way too much to spend on a MIJ kit, but thanks for helping me on my quest !

The search goes on ! ;)
