This is what's on the table for me . I did a bit a research and i hope that you can tell me more . I can see in the pic that 2 of the toms have been altered with pearl type tom mounts , and the condition is not the best but that's fine to a point with me i will be looking for a resto to do over the winter . the shipping of these drums to me is about $100 to $200 i'm not to sure of the drum sizes and the sell neither , it's one of these deals whats in the pic is what you get he's not a drummer just a lead from a friend . I know these are far from the Holly grail of rogers , what do you think i should pay or should i close that door .

First...make sure all badges have MADE IN USA on them.......otherwise,Asian firewood!

Are the other drums as rusty as the one in the close up? Looks like you have a mix of different years, the two in the middle of the rack are different color and the badges are different. Good thing is it appears that all of the hardware is there. If you have to crank out 200 just for shipping then you better get them for reall cheep, like 100 or less. Personally, I would pass simply because you cant see them in person. Almost every time I go look at drums in person they are worse then they were in the pics. I would look closer to home so you can go see them, unless you like live on the North Pole or something.lol.

Those have been modified. The script badge toms have had Memriloc mounts added to them, which means extra holes etc. Also some generic mounts added to some of them. And the one is in really bad shape, the others are probably flawed as well.

Also looks like a homemade badge on one of them?

My opinion? Pass.

Lots of red flags there!

It looks like the 2 concert toms in the upper right have the USA badges, those 2 may be legit.

The center one on the top shelf looks like a home made badge/sticker and has the Pearl mount.

The other drums have Script badges but Memriloc hardware which was from the Big R era so something's fishy there. The BD would never have had that script logo in that position.

The 2 on the middle shelf don't look right at all. The color is off and what size is that one on the left?

I think I'd pass on these unless I could see lots more pics of them and the price was really right. In this case the shipping alone would put me off.

Rogers Memrilock sets are way too available in good to excellent condition for good prices to waste your time crying after you get this mess.

Pass.
