answers:

modules are snare, bass, 3 toms.

comes with power cord only 

I have a selector pad, and its cable, but ive never been able to make it work. 
probably something simple. i can probably get it fixed or fix it myself before i ship. 

No memory cassette or other hardware sorry.

No user manual, sorry.

Everything works, yes. display, knobs, buttons. 

Display shows as normally when turned on. works fine.

Retains newly programmed settings after being powered down, yes. Probably should replace the battery anyway, but as it is, it works.

Encoder clicks when turned.

I have 5 or 6 pads, 1 or 2 dont work. They are in pretty decent shape. Some are sds5 pads and the others are sds7. 
I wasnt going to sell the pads but i will if the offer is good. obviously shipping will be more,.

Could you give us a little more info about the SDS7 you have for sale?

Does everything work?
What modules are installed and what eproms are installed on them?
What does the display show when powered up?
Has the battery been replaced? If so, when?
Does the memory retain newly programmed settings after being powered down for a few hours?
Does the Incrementor spin freely or click when turned?
Do all potentiometers and switches respond as expected?
Does it come with pads? If so, what version? Color? Condition?
Does it come with a Selector Pad and its accompanying mounting bracket? If so, do all 16 positions work?
Does it come with a manual? If so, which version - photocopied or professionally printed and bound?
Does it come with cabling?
Does it come with hardware?
Does it come with a Memory Cassette? If so, does it work?
Does it come with any extra eproms? If so, which ones?
And, lastly, could you upload pictures?
Thanks in advance!
