What brand are the drums?
Whoops forgot to mention. You obviously are a new member haha.. Pearl Export. I wanna get as much as I can for it but I don't want to price it too high because I want it gone asap.

What are the conditions of the drums?
And I'm not new.
Here are a few pics of everything.. I used groove juice a couple times on the cymbals so it took the logos right off so I took pics of the reverse sides. I just gotta wipe the dust off the drums and they'll look new..

i know you just mentioned how you want them to go fast, but there is some good money to be made on those cymbals if you sell them separately. maybe even throw in their respected stands. it can be a hassle to try to keep up with all the individual things, but it's something to consider.
if you sell everything together, i'd say about $1700 and not a great deal more. it's kind of hard to say. the cymbals are nice although not the greatest cosmetic condition, and hardware is good, but exports (all entry level drums for that matter) have a low resale value.

I'd be willing to do that. If I go that route, how should I do it? Sell all the cymbals separately and just the 9pc by itself no cymbals/hardware? If I do that I should probably sell the piccolo and iron cobras separately as well since they're good stuff. Maybe I'll give it a shot selling it all at once first though..
Zakath
08-26-2007, 11:29 PM
maybe I'll just ask 1700, I'd be happy with even 1500 at this point, they've just been sitting for a while now. it seems like too much work to figure out the prices for everything individually :lol:
LoneStarDrummer

cymbals separately, maybe throw in a boom stand on some to help add to the sale. the 9 piece should include all necessary hardware such as snare stands, but i'm not sure about the pedals. throwing in the ICs may be a good idea, but at the same time, those are always easy money when sold separately.
not too sure about selling the pedals separately or not. i'll have to think about that.

yeah i know what you mean. it especially gets to be a real hassle when it comes to shipping everything to different places. you may be better off just selling everything in a bundle to save time and effort.

im not sure if its the same in the USA as Australia, but most of the kits I see for sale are exports. by keeping the cobras and the cymbals in they might give it more interest then the other exports for sale?

Sell the cymbals individually and only sell the stock stuff with the kit. That way you can divvy up the hardware for ebay.

I'd buy the cobras off you, if you lived in europe of the UK

Zakath, its been a long time man. You wont remember me because this isnt my main account and I had a few name changes. Although you may remember my account called Drumma. Probably not but still.
Nice man, I never knew you were a drummer!? But its seems like a nice kit nonetheless, awesome cymbals as well.
But I cant really help you more then anyone else already has. So hi anyway haha.
I see your still using the ! icons :p

if you sell everything together, i'd say about $1700 and not a great deal more.
If it's US$1700 then you would get around £1700 in the UK, despite that being twice as much according to the exchange rate, i.e. exchange rates do not reflect the real prices of a country or area. Maybe £450-£500 for the cymbals, although some of them aren't exactly in good aesthetic condition (no that it really affects the sound, but you know what the second hand world is like I'm sure); no idea about the kit/hardware though.
And ringworm, no offense, but i lol'd at those links you posted.

if you say 1700 pounds, the i suppose the exchange rate doesn't reflect prices accurately at all because there is no way you could get $3400 bucks for all that here in the states.

I know this has been said already, but definitely sell the cymbals separately. There are people who would pay lots of money (maybe 75% of original value?) for those but the people who would buy the Export would not want to spend that kind of money on cymbals.
Also, if i saw an export that i wanted to buy but came with a lot of other things that i didn't want that jacked the price up, i would skip over it right away.
Zakath

oh man this is gonna suck
anyone want to buy anything if I do sell it separately? lol..

What series is the AA crash? Medium?To be honest.. I'm not exactly sure. It's definitely either medium or medium thin. It's probably a medium, I don't think I ever bought anything thin. I can take closer pics if you would like.

no recordings, sorry. maybe Ziljian has some stuff on their website. I'll take 115 for the K. Plus shipping which would probably be 20 or something.
