BAAAAWWWWWWW.....................

3500 Euro is equal to $5,345 Canadian dollars. Overpriced!

3500 Euro is equal to $4,756 US dollars. Overpriced!

I could build 3 or 4 of those for that price.

Keep in mind, it is DW and you pay superinflated prices even for used sets! but yes, you could build 3-4 for that

I think more the price issue is that the seller is in France. We U.S. guys know U.S. prices. That's a Buddy Rich kit (basically), and I saw one a few weeks ago "gently used" at Guitar Center for $2499. One on eBay sold for $1999 not so long ago.

He said it was in a brand new state.Perhaps he just played on it only a couple of times and it is like right out of the box. ..

That's right !! And I said that the price is debatable, and payment by monthly instalments accepted. So... it is a DW you know ! Custom made in September of 2005.

Great.. it's a DW... 4 drums for a grand each... woohoo! Not to mention it's your only post here. God I'd build one beautiful kit for that kind of money. Might not be quite a Bozzio setup but it'd be more than 4 drums... lol

Spendy! That was more than my ironwood set, which is quite a bit more exotic (agreed, I have smaller drum sizes and I had to buy rims, heads and mounts).

If I were going to spend $1,000 per shell, I'd want something more exotic than a mass-produced plywood kit, like a custom ply kit or something with labor-intensive non-ply construction. I'm sure it's a great kit and all, but for that kind of money, I'd need something more than just a top-of-the-line ply set.

Price is negotiable (or best offer) and he will take payments. I'm interested in just how much does that kit sell for in France? Shipping's gotta be a bear of a price.

No, I have a 70's six ply maple wmp Ludwig kit, (just like the one Buddy once used) that sounds better than DW's, and quite a bit cheaper. While we're on the subject I was at GC again today, they had a beautiful DW kit set up right in the middle of the store. I borrowed a drum stick and had a couple wacks on the toms...... well the kick sounded good anyway.

It was a joke, get it? You know, haha funny?

And by the way that was a good one whoever said it.

[crazyhorse]

I don't care what kind of drums you like... over 4 grand for 4 drums is silly

I didn't take his comments as snobbish.....just stating the obvious

You are quite right, but you know what they say, "there's a fool born every minute".

[Glob Glob]

3500 euro is a bit (ALOT) overpriced!

that's absolute right.
maybe in france, too ;-)

So, what is the good price for this drum set ? It's in a very good condition, so tell me !

Well it may be in good state, but it's still a used set, I reckon it will be worth between 1/2 and 2/3 of the retail price. I think you should be able to get 2300 for it.

Antes,


A mon humble avis, tu devrais plus miser sur une vente en France, voire une vente sur eBay. Ce parce que, de manière générale, ce n'est pas très avantageux pour un résidant américain d'acheter un DW venant hors des Etats-Unis (c'est plus cher ailleurs, l'euro par rapport au dollar, le prix de la livraison et tout le tintouin...) Concernant le prix, je ne peux rien te dire parce que je ne suis pas du tout familier avec les tarifs de chez DW. Éventuellement, ne pourrais-tu pas téléphoner à La Baguetterie et demander leur prix de vente pour un tel kit? A partir de la tu devrais pourvoir trouver un tarif intéressant.

Désolé que certains ici se soient montrés désagréables à ton égard.


Batteuristiquement,
Christopher.

Il n'y a pas de problème, les gens sont comme ils sont, ce n'est pas grave !

Peut être nous connaissons nous ? Je vis en France à Rouen et j'ai passé 4 ans à Paris dans les clubs de jazz... sait on jamais !

En tous cas, toutes les infos sont intéressantes pour moi en ce qui concerne la revente de cette batterie DW. En ce qui concerne eBay, je dois étudier la question, il y a des frais...
