HI,

I have an immaculate never used simmons suitcase drumset still with
the keys...

I have searched here and the net but theres hardly any information on
this item, or even anything to compare it to cost wise? I want to sell
as I have a few kits and brains, and I need to make some space as
moving shortly...

Can anyoe help or fill me in on this kit, or contact me if you might
want to purchase? I am wary of listing on ebay simply because of the
niche market!

Cheers,

Andy

They pop up from time to time on Ebay but seldom that expensive. I have 
no experience with them myself, but I guess the whole "octapad-feel" to 
it makes it less loveable maybe?

I remember seeing Thompson Twins old unit for sale too a few years ago...

Hi everyone, I have had so many emails asking for more information on
my simmons suitcase, I will go home later and take some pictures and
post them here and respond to all your mail. I have had an offer of
£400 so far, but after speaking to a few people I realise this is
super rare, and they just dont come up for sale in this condition...

Ill get back to you all this evening..

Thanks again guys!

Andy

Hey Andy ,

£400 for a suitcase  ????

Don't hesitate one second !!!

I'd personnaly give the same price but with a zero less  ;- )
maybe a bit more but £400 !?!

there are wealthy collectors around ...
Does anybody want an SDX for £4000 ???
an XRack for 6000 ?   (only 5 made ...)

:- )))

Patrice.
