That seems a bit pricey for a 3 piece though, don't you think?

I always think he's a bit pricey, but when was the last time you saw one of these?
I can't justify spending that much on 3 drums but I know other folks do all the time, someone will get it. After it sits there for a month

Probably won't sit long. That's an unusually low price for Sam.

And being this one is significantly more with 4 offers you would think one of them would go for it:

Bops are always expensive, once they're no longer being built. Cheaper while they're still in manufacture. But yes, that one does seem to stretch the prevailing by a fair degree. Roughly what I paid my kit in quilted bubinga, including two racks and two floors.

Sam does not aim his prices at the US market, and from talking to him, most of his sales are overseas. Interesting business model.

If I did not have mine, I'd be interested in that one, but I'm glad I'm not. No, I'm not. No, I am not. No...
