Lost my job; need to move stuff out...

Posts: 1427 Threads: 66

Hi guys.

Had a bad week last week and was cut loose. I'm using it as the "push" to get some stuff moved out. Local pick up in Hamden CT is free and I'll ship whatever you want shipped at your expense.

I understand I need to make proper listings for each and will do soon but looking for new employment takes the top priority at the moment.

New DW collectors maple snare 5-1/2x14 clear maple finish $550

Sonor Phonic D454 steel snare 5x14 $200

Rogers Powertone 5-1/2x14 COB $200

Nasty looking keystone badge era super sensitive shell. Bare (no badge) and missing most of the chrome. $20

Bunch of old stands etc. blue and olive parts and rough old Rogers hat stand. Also pre and post YESS Yamaha mounts.

Restored Yamaha D20 kit in red ripple 12-14-20 with rims mount for the Tom as well as original rail. Custom bass hoops by Precision Drum Co. I have a thread here detailing the restoration. $1000

That's off the top of my head. I'd rather not part with my cobalt blue kit or the black bop kit but if you have deep pockets I'd consider selling the blue kit for car money...

Sorry mods if I'm out of line but I want these to go to good homes and don't have time to devote to proper listings for here or eBay.

Thanks for your help guys!

Thanks Tommy.

I want to show pictures as well but I'll work up some prices and edit the listing.

Thank you for your understanding!

Sorry to hear about you losing your job. Good luck on the sale and the search for the next place. I am sure both will go well

Hey Jim, sorry about your job, I hate to hear when someone has to sell part of their collection because of money. Been there! Had to sell my beautiful Sky Blue Pearl Ludwigs last month to pay my taxes but it went to a really good home! Kenwood is going to give me visitation! :) Anyway, if I need anything your getting rid of, I'll let you know after you post prices. I'm right in Madison and my daughters in Hamden. Good luck neighbor!

Thanks guys. I've been going non stop all week to try and secure something and I appreciate the encouragement.

I have added some pricing to the big items. With the hardware, it might be easier to just see if I have what you need. It is in a big box with most priced out from the last drum show. I have not made the last two unfortunately so it's all ready to go. Mainly 80-90's vintage but some older bits too.

I always wanted a super sensitive but in no position for trades at the moment.

once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.
