I dont know, I just think the seller is gouging on the shipping cost. But I would say that it is not an entry level type drum.

1984-85 Model product model is: M-514D

The M-514D (6 1/2 x 14) snare were featured on the Professional series and all DX and DLX-7500 series drums as standard equipment. It was equipped with Pearl SuperHoops 2.3 triple flanged and had the new S-015EX "Extended Gladstone Type strainer providing sensitive snare tension at both sides.

The Professional series are not entry or mid level, they are indeed top of the line.

Well, $51 for the drum and $40 for shipping... that probably isn't a terrible deal for what seems to basically be a later version of a Jupiter.

Did you win it, Wayne?
