Messaged a couple of you about this, but I know how everybody likes a good chin scratch, so though'd it post it too! I know as long as your Slingys are not 80's ones they're good gear, and the seller says these are 1970's. They have the niles badge, so think the date is accurate.
What would be a decent price to pay for these drums? Cheers.
[COLOR="DarkRed"]Clarify the cymbals...they look to be Sabian Pro Sonix. if they are B8's instead, knock of $100 usd from my suggestion below.
Looks to be a nice old set. the bass drum, however, I can assure you is NOT 21", either 20 or 22...so get that clarified, too.
Unfortunately the original Slingy snare is no longer...and the hardware is mix/match.
In usd:
an original 4-pc. 5-ply set of Slingys in good condition, with original mounts still intact, in a very common color = $600
Snare = $50
Old Sabian Pro Sonix cymbals (1 crash, ride, 'hats...the cracked crash ain't worth a dime) = $150-175
The hardware = $75-100.
Those would be middle-road market values.
It could go for more, or it could go for less....

Thats for all your help!
Nooooooo!Eye Ball
The guy ended it before it was up!
I bet someone eager to get his hands on it offered him a figure outside of ebay to end it!
Still, seller had no feedback rating so shoulda known...
In my head they were mine! No Slingy's for meeecrying2-07crying2-07crying2-07
Still 'tis the way of ebay
[COLOR="DarkRed"]The good news is Slingys are ubiquitous on eFlay and elsewhere, so....just be patient and keep an eye. ;)[/COLOR]
Cheers, yeah, will keep an eye out! Thing is, not as many in the UK I don't think, but will keep looking!
