Gee do all the auctions/offerings on that site typically only have one pic and fail to give sizes? That would be very difficult to deal with.

I had a great day! Instead of sleeping in and wasting the day, I got up at 8 and I had all my slacking done by noon!

Gee - that Pearl there - if I lived there....it would be a no-brainer. I bet for 100 ($83 USD) You could sell off the peripherals and have most or all of your money back. The snare stand (looks like a vintage Premier), HH stand (ANY vintage flat based HH stand is worth at least 20), and finally - those HH cymbals...worth at least 30, who knows - could be some really good ones and you may make money and score the drums here!

That snare is AWESOME - I highly recommend them.

Entire collections have been built this way.

I know! The great thing here is people can be totally clueless as to the vintage value of these kits. There seem to be a few here. A pre international premier went for 450 here in nelson a couple of weeks ago!

Well Wado,

it's sound incredibly cool for sure!

About the Star Kit, it's not matching with the tom holder... extra hole :/

the blue sparkle looks better to me Walking
