[COLOR="DarkRed"]Well...that is some niiice stuff there.

Yes, a '70's kit including snare....so a 5-pc. In good shape, that'd be worth about $1000-1300. Unfortunately, the bass drum needs refinishing. So subtract $200.

The cymbals....those Avedis Zildjians look old, likely 50's or older. Despite the keyhole, those could be very nice old A's. For the A's = $350.

A Flat Paiste ride and a pair of hats...C-2, excuse me...I don't understand what you mean ? Are they 602's or not ? Paiste never had a cymbal line called 'C-2'.....

...if those Paistes are all 602's, then = $500+

If they aren't...then maybe about $300.

So, no...seller is asking a good $700-1000 too much for that kit, especially in today's market. It shouldn't bring more than $2000-2200 tops....even with the bass pedal (!).[/COLOR]

I have no idea what he means by that description of the cymbals. I'm translating from Swedish, and he's an old dude who doesn't seem to make much sense :)

Thanks for the info. I'll keep an eye on it and see if he drops the price.

[COLOR="DarkRed"]...or contact him and make an offer.....he will likely never get his asking price for them....although I understand that, in Europe, Gretschs may fetch a bit more money than here....

....the Paistes don't look like cheap ones, by the way. They look to be good ones....just there's no such thing as a C-2.....but the old flat ride...I really don't think Paiste made flat rides in anything other than a 602..until the late 70's when they started making them in 2002's and later the 3000's....and that one pictured is neither of those, for sure....

So I do wonder if they are 602's....[/COLOR]
