I have a 24 piece drumset for sale. Hear are the peaces:
1 Base Drum
1 Base Drum Peddle
1 Snair Drum
1 Snair Drum Stand
2 Ride Toms
1 Double Tom attachment piece
1 Floor Tom
3 Floor Tom Legs
1 Hi-Hat Stand
2 Hi-Hat Symbols
1 Simbal Stand
1 Crash/Ride symbel (I'm counting this as 2 pieces because it does to things)
1 drum thrown
1 stick bag
4 drumsticks
1 tuning tool
Only used by an 8 year-old for about 8 months, so it's like getting a brand new set.
The drumset is a first-Act drumset that I bought at Target. They are known for there nice hi-end products. It cost me 299 plus tax so $320. I'm asking $299 firm, so you'll save $21 in sales tax - Great Deal! Please don't try to lowball me, as I know what I paid for this and you are just waisting your time. And if you are going to try and scam me, don't bother, as I will no longer be giving out my bank information to strangers. I've fallen for that trick for the last time!
I would consider trades, like a nice 4x4 truck, or a speedboat.
ONLY CONTACT ME IF YOUR ARE SERIOUL!

Wow... so here are a couple things to take from this:
- Know how to count drums! When you say that a drum set is x amount of pieces, this refers to the drums themselves, not the cymbals, hardware, sticks, and especially individual floor tom legs, haha.
- Take about 2 seconds and actually make an effort to spell things correctly! There is no such thing as a "Snair," "Drum Peddle," or "Simbal." I'm also thoroughly sick of seeing ZILJIAN, ZIDLIJAN, ZIJLAIN, and every other attempt to spell Zildjian. Its ON THE CYMBAL (not symbol, by the way)
- Don't lie. Seems obvious, but some people don't get that. Don't say that First Act are known for "there nice hi-end products," its simply not true. They're actually known for their poor low end products.
- Don't ask for full price on used items, and get indignant about someone trying to "lowball" you. I'm not paying $299 for a used First Act drum set unless Ringo Starr and Buddy Rich both signed it. And even then, I would have to think about it.
Hahaha, so anyways, do you think this Craigslist poster is this for real? Or are we being trolled by a fellow drummer who has read his fair share of Craigslist drum set ads himself? Also, leave a comment about what other hilarious things people do when they post drum sets on Craigslist!
