I think sellers should have the common courtesy to respond back...I think it`s very rude not to...

Yea I didn't hear anything either. If they sold, just reply to me with " sold " I mean I understand. You listed them to sell, I'm not gonna be offended,lol

Heck you guys should try putting 6 hours into a kitchen design and "not hear back" people lack manners these days, I blame the TV and cell phone.

I don't even know who to blame. I recently did work for a guy towards a trade. Re did a snare twice for him even, all so he could back out of the trade. And then give me non sense like " the deal wasn't done until it was done " like I considered it done after I let you take a snare home and test run it and then I did custom work on it, twice. That's a done deal as far as I see it. So my time and money went bye bye for nothing, but in his mind that wasn't his problem or fault.

Kits are out there. Just got's to move fast.

Local listings on a much the same Slingerland kit:

Yep, burned on bunch of work then no pay. Shinny suit crowd the worse.

Move's on.

Moves on and learns. Next time I offer work as part of a trade, I want some of the items first, or some form of down payment. But hey, I ended up selling that snare drum off anyway. So in the end, I didn't lose.

I don't know a lot about Slingerland, but is usual for the floor to be centre lug when the bass and rack clearly are not? Separate order perhaps, but I would've thought to get an all matching lug placement across the kit...

The seller did reply back and say that he has a commitment to someone. That was nice of him. I let him know to contact me if it falls through. I had a similar experience recently on a Sonor Champion kit. I contacted the seller and was told that someone had already committed to the kit. I politely asked to keep me in mind if the seller low balls/does not show. I got an email the next day saying the seller bailed and they are there way to me right now.

Well played, that man!
