How much should I sell it for?

benjiman1111 · 03-25-2008, 09:20 PM

I am interested in selling my drum kit but dont know how much I can and should sell it for.

The drums are:

Mapex M Birch black laquer
6 piece all with remo pinstripes over evans g1
Snare is an evans dry over a 300 hazy

All drums are in mint condition, not so much as a scratch on them.

Also with the drums are:

Zildjian A custom mastersound 14" Hats
Zildjian Avedis 16" medium crash
Zildjian Avedis 18" medium Thin Crash
Sabian AA 20" Heavy Ride
Wuhan 18" China

All cymbals and drums are in mint condition since they are played very rarely.

How much do you think I could ask and get for these drums?

I'll give you 100 bucks for the hats

stevensonmat2 · 03-25-2008, 10:12 PM

Couldn't say for sure but I'd bet well over 1500 USD for all that.

Verdas · 03-26-2008, 08:22 AM

Yah, $1,500

bobby__johnny · 03-26-2008, 08:29 AM

thems some nice cymbals.

i'll take the ride off your hands if you want

Panopticon · 03-26-2008, 09:22 AM

are you including hardware? I would say probly 800-1000.

the_pure_drummer · 03-26-2008, 10:06 AM

Id say about £1100 for all that. = 2k USD

Panopticon · 03-26-2008, 10:14 AM

thats retarded...you can get it all brand new for less than that.

benjiman1111 · 03-26-2008, 12:11 PM

I also live in canada, and we only have 2 music stores here that sell drums...

***billdrum*** · 03-26-2008, 12:19 PM

Price it all new at musicians friend, and try selling it for 70-80 percent of that if it's all in mint condition. Be prepared to lower your price if it doesn't sell.

LoneStarDrummer · 03-26-2008, 12:20 PM

$1500 USD tops.

you have a good $700-$750 worth of cymbals there, in their used condition. brand new, the drums are about $825. used and in great condition, you could get about $675 for them.

that brings your total to about $1375-$1425. i'd aim for just below the former.

benjiman1111 · 03-26-2008, 03:16 PM

Do you think I could make more by selling all the parts seperate???

lmldrummer · 03-26-2008, 03:45 PM

selling the kit and the cymbals seperatly, you probably could

not the individual parts of the kit though

LoneStarDrummer · 03-26-2008, 04:05 PM

^agreed. the cymbals sold separately will give you a chance to make some nice money, but the kit should definitely go all together with hardware.

the down side is more hassle dealing with individual stuff. you have to deal with emails about different items and ship to different people, also you loose money when you have to ship several different items.

bobby__johnny · 03-26-2008, 04:21 PM

where in canada? i'd for real take that ride off your hands

benjiman1111 · 03-26-2008, 04:52 PM

In thunder Bay, Ontario. I like the ride, but I never knew people had such an interest in it.
