yep the 1969 comes from the floor tom .....the 1970 comes from the rest........... they are a mix

They are not a set and they don't match so the only value would be what the total of the three drums are worth individually (which I bet is significantly less than $800 but he'd probably make more money selling them one by one).

I don't know what the current market price might be but I'd be inclined to offer these sorts of prices...

bass drum $200-$250

small tom $100-150

Floor tom $100-200

So $400 to $600 (IMO). Less if there are any extra holes or any of that sort of "Monkey Business".

If you can wait a little longer and just keep searching Craigslist then something much better will turn up. The most money I have ever paid for a kit was 600.00, and that is my Camco kit, came with some nice brass also. And, I paid 500 for a Ludwig super classic in blue oyster pearl, that also came with some nice cymbals, a couple cool timbales and a supra.

The deals are out there, just dont share them with the forum until you have then in your house, there are some on here that will buy them out from under you.

Good luck!

That is some good advice from jeff C......patience is really the key..........there is also some good deals right here on VDF ! u may find a member with too many sets and may opt to let one go here for a good price instead of using ebay. if i had a set for 800.00 there would be no reason not to sell it to a forum member for 720.00. Post what u are looking for in the wanted section. eventually u will get it for what your budget allows.

I was looking for a 14 x 20" gretsch stop sign badge black nitron bass drum...(pretty specific) LOL ........and one came my way right here for a very fair price thanks to manny who send another friend a lead i was looking and in less then a week it was at my front door.

Dude - I have a 9/72 Rogers Swivo kit in Blue Onyx, 12", 13", 16", 20" in excellent condition for $850 + shipping! (Shell pack only.) I can pm you photos if you want to see em. I'm offering you a much better deal than the one you're contemplating.

John

Definitely a wiser use of money. A great deal. Rogers were "the Cadillac" of drums at the time and are every bit as good as Ludwig. John will do right by you ten-fold.

See what I mean .............lol I might even ask for a pic.....for the most part we are brothers and try do our very best for each other.

Saw that ad while going through Ontario kijiji a while back.... Seen another that was a Ludwig white cortex for $799 in Toronto !..

Way better deals out there than that.. This guy's either an ignorant imbecile, or a scam artist..

Yes this! ^^^^ Super nice drums and seller too. Yes Sir

I agree better deals are out there.

Buy from Purdie instead. You'll be glad later.
