Designer owners, at least the ones trying to sell their drums on ebay: are they looking at each other to set their pricing?

      Three piece bop kit in blue sparkle: BIN $3600.

      Four piece 10, 12, 14 (hanging), 22, in red stain: BIN $2750

      Three piece 12, 16, 22 in Walnut Roots: $2750

      Four piece 12, 16,18, 24 in black, complete with T-shirt and 2 slotted keys: $3300

      Never mind Steve Smith's 8 pc., listed at $11,995.

It's ALL because of the T-shirt Gregory. It builds up the price...


Few offers - high prices... That's how I look at those things...

But they dont sell for that I dont think.
My old kit was being sold by its owner starting at 3500 (4200 on the bay), dropped to well below 3k for a 6 piece is desired sizes, I think he lost his shirt considering what he put into it. I felt extremely lucky to break even when I sold it.
Agree with Kel, people are nuts.You can buy a great sounding used kit for 800 bucks if you really look

Is that a lot for a Sig 8 and 10? If I had them, that's about what I'd expect to sell them for, or buy them for if I wanted them. But I admit I haven't been paying attention to that market.

Whether people are nuts depends on what they want and why, and to a large degree upon the market. It is not the relative value of things I question; it is pricing something about 50% above normal in a depressed market. Sometimes you see a freak who either didn't get the memo or doesn't care, but rarely does the majority defy reality so aggressively… :idea:

Wait a minute. What planet have I been living on?

Not unlike the 'business for sale' market, some of these things simply follow the philosophy of, "I'm not looking to sell, but willing to sell for stupid money...

...any takers?"

$1700 for 2 toms is a little on the high side in the current economic climate, in my opinion.
Although, they actually are 6+8 which are almost impossible to find. :| I'm assuming the winning bidder realized this.
