not mine, fancied it and then thought the bass drum was a tad too large!

£199 seems good to me, with no bids

Mid life crisis kicked in, drum kit bought. It's not quite like cycling though, you forget. A lot!

There are over three days to go. £199 is just the starting bid.

Indeed but it doesn't state in the listing what the kit actually is so I thought I'd give a heads up. Apologies if I have posted incorrectly.

Bugger!! I was keeping this one to myself! Only down the road from me! Although I have contacted him to see if I can view the kit before hand and he wont allow viewing beforehand

Premier did make a Rock Legend kit with a 26" BD but they didn't make it in that finish, AFAIK. He mentions Tama in the listing, and "Rock Star" - possibly a Tama Rockstar? Or do they have long lugs? It's hard to say, really. Anyone any other ideas?

I emailed him and asked him the other day, he said it is an artist.

[edit]

just looked again and in the second picture you can see the oval badge on the floor tom

The Oval badge in the second picture (Floor Tom) looks distinctly like a Tama RockStar badge?!

Indeed it's an Artist Rock Legend, can tell from the oval FT mounts and wingnuts on them. The badge looks golden one so maple shells as opposed to birch which had the silver badges (Although I don't know if the Rock Legend came in both or not).
The wrap would be original, they came with both white and black pearl wraps. Nice kit if you like the bigger sizes

There are two snares with it if you read the description; a premier artist and a tama

Yeah, I watched it shoot up in the last 5 minutes. To be honest I wouldn't have bid as much as you did. £550-£600 would've been my limit. I didn't actually get round to bidding as it shot up so quickly. Nasty finish though. I probably would've paid what it went for if it was a silver sparkle!

I went to £650 and was winning for most of the evening, but you win some you lose some.
