Hey joeybeats...
Well, you're looking at the "fair" market value of this particular drum. This model sells for anywhere between $500.00 to $1200.00 depending on who is looking for one and when. As of late, these have been popular... probably becuase there aren't all that many out there, especially in Buddy's color/wrap, WMP. Actually, Buddy favored the COW model more then the WMP model as he used the COW for a longer period of time. Regardless,
It will be tough to find one, let alone escape for less than $500.00... as a matter of fact, the last THREE I have seen, all sold for OVER $700.00 each. I happen to have both the WMP and the COW in near MINT condition as part of my Buddy Rich snare drum collection. Truth be told, ANY Buddy Rich model snare drum in the CORRECT color/wrap is a given to bring some bucks.

Thanks Tommy. Much appreciated. I am sitting at home and going to watch the end of this auction. I'd like to have a nice snare like this to play. Thanks again. Joey
