Hey guys.

This thread is dedicated to ebay gear that you think is too low, that you have won, or seen other people win.

I just won a barely used Paiste 2002 Medium 14 Hi hat for 175.00

The 14" Zildjian A New Beats (my x-hats) were a $50 purchase from ebay, shipping included.

A pair of those just sold for 145. No where near the deal you got.
 
Can I use Craigslist for my experience? Please. My 5 month old, 5 piece Gretsch Renowns were 650.00 from a local lad.

Four crashes all Z and A Custom. (Brand New) Paiste Signature Ride. A Custom quick beat hats. 14" Oriental China. K and A Custom splash.

On a seperate note I bought some sticks and heads from Musicians friend and in the box were 8 Digital guitar tuners (Aside from what I ordered) that I neither ordered nor paid for. I called for 2 weeks trying to get return authorization but no one would return my calls and no one seemed interested in talking to me so I gave them all away as gifts.
 
I once paid 155 euros for a Paiste sound formula reflector 16"power crash and a 16" thin china.
 
I got a 20" K ride for $100

Also got a 14x5" Pearl Maple Free Floater with maple hoops and 3 Evans heads for $200
