Bump. Nearly 100 views but no one wants to play these? Tell me what's wrong ;-)

Greetings Tuco.
That is without a doubt a beautiful set of ISLAS but quite honestly, $1,800 is a steep price for your set. You are looking at about $1,400 tops and believe me, I mean no disrespect and hope that you get what you are asking. If I was going to spend $1,800 on a set of three drums I would rather invest in a set of Valjes or used set of SOS wich have a much better resale value and whose general quality is superior to ISLAS. Once again, no disrespect, in fact I wish I had your ISLAS.
Cheers.
K.C.

@KC Thanks man, I appreciate the feedback. Did you know that a similar set of Isla's sold on this board last month for $1,800 (or $650 each)? At least that's the impression I have from the post (see below). Those drums don't even match, and there's no free shipping to CA, OR, NV. I'm sure a Valje or S-O-S set would be great, but tough to find. You could wait a very long time and still not make a deal, whereas my Isla's, in great shape, are available now ;-) Here's the page with all the details: http://goo.gl/GbjdOh

Yes, he's been searching for a while and really excited to finally get these. Apparently he could not reach Isla in Belize; not sure what's happening down there. Cheers.

Good find. Those look like early production (with the square label).
