Re: [Simmons Drums] Opinions on SDS7 ebay kit

2008-03-06 by Patrice Jacquot

about $ 2000 ????

Are you serious about that ?
For an SDS7 ? the worst kit ever built by Simmons in term of  
reliability & maintenance ????
Just for a 5 piece kit ...
When you think of all the chances that this module would finish broken  
down ...

it's not honest at all  from the seller ...

My only thoughts about it really ...

I'd like to meet him  :- ))))
