Re: [Simmons Drums] Re: sds-3 sold on Ebay

But you who always complain about the riot shields sure must enjoy the 
real pads more, no?!

I never grasped where you were going with the 909-comment though.

It's the world of modern collecting and modern history. A stradivarius 
is still just a violin made by an italian with a visual handicap but 
still far from a vintage Simmons unit price-wise...
