Looks tempting. I think those are Ludwig lugs, but I'm no expert. Anyone care to weigh in?

I agree, those look like the correct lugs. But the wrap dont look right. But 200 isnt bad at all if they are Ludwig drums, even re-wrapped. Id go see them in person and check it out.

It is certainly questionable.
- 8-lug bass drum (not sure what size that is)
- bass drum hoop and T-rods?
- no badges showing on toms and no badge on the bass
- can't tell anything about the spurs
If nothing else, that is a good looking and well appointed kit for $200. Note the shock mount feet on the floor toms and chrome Holz or Os on the kick head. definitely worth a look. If that is an MIJ kit, it looks like a nice one.
I agree those lugs and T's on bass drum dont look Ludwig but my eyes aren't what they used to be for this pic.
The bass drum lugs might be newer Ludwig Accent lugs? They have the same kinda shape. Hard to tell from the 1 pic though. Just a guess.
It's a rewrap - definitely-! The modern WMP wrap has a much smaller chip size/ pattern, than the old version of WMP. Even from a distance, it's always easy to spot the difference between the new stuff and the old version.
For $200 I'd buy em all day long. Excellent gig kit! Good sounding drums and you don't mind too much if a little beer gets spilled on em. 1-up, 2-down, if I was anywhere near them, they'd be in my trunk!

PS - That's a Bonham set-up! Check out the photo: 14", 16", 18", 24" Sweeeeet! $200? I want em!
And before some wise-guy asks... the way I determined the sizes using the photo is; I started with the bottom floor tom. If the one on top of it is a standard 16" (and it looks to be,) it is centered on the one below it which is showing approximately one inch ring of drum head around the middle floor tom. So it's an 18" on the bottom of the stack. The tom sitting on top of the 16" is only showing about an inch of space from the rim: makes it a 14". Then comparing the 18" to the bass drum head in the background, 24" is a good guess. Viola, Bonham set-up!
8 lugs on the bass drum means it an 18 or 20" if it's a higher end drum.
I'd pounce on that for $200.

Ditto what John says...

Most certainly a re wrap.
