I need the following for a late-50's Downbeat Piccolo:

14" 8-hole NOB batter-side hoop

(7) 2-5/16" nickel-plated tension rods

Thanks!

***UPDATE: Tom and Carl (vadrums) were able to hook me up with both the hoop & the tension rods. Thanks guys!

Well, I never received the hoop or tension rods from vadrums. The less said about that whole transaction, the better... :(

Anyway, I'm still looking for the following:

14" Ludwig 8-hole NOB batter-side hoop

(8) Ludwig 2-5/16" nickel-plated tension rods

Thanks!

Oh....OK.......

I don't go on DFO much anymore........too much going on there......

I like the more laid back vibe here.........

Tom (vadrums) says he's gonna send me a refund via money order for the parts he never sent. I'm guessing I shouldn't hold my breath waiting for that money order.

Jeeez...there are entire threads devoted to horror stories about this guy. My fault for not doing my homework before PayPal-ing him my hard-earned $'s.

Live and learn... :(

Update: vadrums ended up sending me a full refund via PayPal. However, they initially only refunded me the $45 for the hoop; I had to "remind" them that they owed me an an additional $20 refund for the tension rods. WTF?

An absolute nightmare from start to finish... buyer beware.

Any guesses who this is?

No wonder he can't find anything to actually ship it. Looks like an episode of "Hoarders"...:rolleyes:

True. Maybe I could even find the hoop & tension rods he never sent me... must be there somewhere...

Seriously, it's a pity these guys are such irresponsible flakes. Their "inventory" looks like an absolute treasure trove. Sigh...
