Anyone heard of Megatone drums?

A friend of mine is selling a kit like this (http://cgi.ebay.com.au/NEW-HIGH-QUALITY-BLACK-5-PIECE-DRUM-SET-GIFT-DRUM1000B_W0QQitemZ7365600712QQcategoryZ622QQcmdZV iewItem) that I'm gonna get, it's £200, which doesn't sound bad. Having no experience I've no idea whether it's a good kit or not though :/

I think the cymbals are bad, so I'd need to get new ones, and I haven't got a clue where to start with tuning it :S

Thanks for any advice.

it looks like an average beginer kit

Ya, definetely a beginner kit.

[Drum Phil]

Wouldnt say it was worth £200

ya bgod beginner kit, and did anyone read the description, "This Item Retails For Over 999$ In Most Stores" I laughed so Hard when I read that haha. But its still worth the 200 your paying, just not over 1000 haha

[mprules]

nah it isnt worth 200pound

[dumbassdrummer]

I wouldn't recomend it.

Entry level drums, try Ludwig Accent, Gretsch Blackhawks or something like that.

Man I wouldnt take that for free, sorry

Alright, cheers for the advice. Now I gotta work out what other kit to get with a budget of around £600.. so much choice and so little knowledge..

You can get a Mapex M-Birch set for less than that, and at the moment there's an offer where you get a free extra tom! 8" if you buy a fusion set, 10" if you buy a standard (rock) set.
Most big stores are advertising them in Rhythm Mag for £495!

/is a bargain.
