I'll leave it to the pros, but I think it may be taiwanese, an R360 kit?

Call and ask a couple of questions first.

Does it say MADE IN USA on the badges? The cheap imports did not. Also the XP-8 bd heads said XP8 under the Rogers logo.

What is the interior finish? If it is clear with no rerings, they may be XP-8 shells. Those are great shells if that is what they are.

What are the hoops on the bass drum - wood or metal? The cheap Rogers kits usually had metal hoops. The XP-8 usually had wood hoops.

Pricing seems doable if they are the XP-8 shells. I have found that most MusicGoRound stores will also deal on the price some. Good luck. Also ask for picture of badge on the snare. It usually said if they were the import R series shells.

Just remember "clear" interiors is NOT a reddish stain. Know your Big R Badges too. The Island Music Badge is more square than the USA Big R badge, and it doesnt say USA. Just dont get stuck with a peck of lemons.
