Some things simply should not be.

I saw this and couldn't help the slight sense of nausea I felt. What could possibly possess someone to do such a thing?

eBay item number:32218833518

Just cut and pasted it: 32218833518. Its really weird because i can't find it using the ID number or the description either. It just comes up on my watched items now. I've taken a screen shot so you can see it. Essentially someone has taken a beautiful 1938 Leedy Broadway and lacquered the whole thing in gold sh*t, hardware and all and called it a 'restoration'. More like an abomination! (IMO)

I actually think it doesn't look too bad. At Least it is just lacquer and could be removed.

Some people really believe this kind of stuff makes a drum better and improves its value. It is sad....

I know that this type of thing is subjective but it really upsets me. to me it's a form of vandalism.
