Hey guys!

Ian40uk gave me a link to sell my premier kit, but i was wondering if i had put the right price range on it(£100-£150)

here is the link to see pics - http://www.drumclassifieds.co.uk/viewad.asp?id=50012493879100336

So if you guys who know more could tell if it is too much or not enough?

thanks,

I don't know about the European market, but Olympics don't sell for much in the states. Try contacting Mike and Dave at DM Drums, they sell older Premiers all the time and know everything there is to know about them.

you oughta ask around at mikedolbear.com since they're a bit closer to where you're at. British drums really don't bring a premium over here like American drums do over there, but I've talked with a few brits that really like the olympic by premier line. remeber, back then they used as high of quality shells for their beginner kits as they did for their higher end ones. Just cheaper hardware.

It may be worth thinking about putting them on the 'bay. They're in good nick and are one of the more unusual colours, tho there are a few about.

Erwinner is right, Olympic shells are EXACTLY the same as the Prems of the period, I would guess yours are birch from the age of them. They are nice sounding drums and kits in good nick are quite collectable. I have a 20"Oly bass drum that I still use for recording as it sounds good! Rest of my kit are Sonor Phonic Pluses.

They'd bring around 125.00-150.00 US over here on Ebay..
