Ok, about the drums themselves...they're in good enough shape. i was more refering to...like, when it comes unprofessional to have a bad kit when all the other players have good equipment.
About prices...here in AUS, a middle range kit is about 2000 grand, or not too much under it. 3007 brand new, about 2200. pro m, 1800-2000. and before i get the 'buy it 2nd hand off ebay' replies, usually that would be good advice but for me, I live away from a city (im not getting my parents to drive to brisbane or sydney just to get a kit). On ebay, its either not what im looking for or too far away. You probly couldn even get an export for 250 bucks on ebay. id be happy with an export, even though the rock sizes arnt exactly suited to everything id like to play...but thats a different matter.
