You bought a brazilian cymbal. B8 alloy, I don´t like these cymbals too much but I have a splash 9''. The mine cost about U$10,00. Check: www.harpycymbals.com.br - There´s an english version.

are those like the blue and red cymbals? i've seen them on ebay

[octagon]

The color coated are even crappier. I´m getting rid of mine and get some paiste or sabian splash.

[Unlastinglove.]

Never heard of them..

Did you buy it of Australian Ebay?

[The Hermit]

Those things pop-up on the German Ebay all the time.

[Roar!]

I've never heard of them.

They are always on French ebay too, but I tend to avoid them, as in my mind cheap cymbals are never a good thing. (although i guess wuhan/stagg are OK if you go through a pile) I'd prefer to play it before I buy it off ebay, especially with an unknown quantity.

yea i figure they are crap... but u never know... paistes soundcolor series back in the day weren't too bad and they looked sick

I read this thread title really quickly and thought it said "Happy Cymbals".

I have a Harpy 20 inch ride. It was coloured blue but with a lathe I managed to get the blue colour off of it. Truthfully, it sounds just as good as some of my Sabians and Zildjians for a fraction of the cost. Of course some folks laugh at me for having a "cheap" cymbal but when they hear some of my recordings they can't tell one cymbal from another.
