Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

I came across a DTXtreme IIS I couldn't pass up and now I have an 
extra III Special Edition.  Has anybody had any good/bad experiences 
selling and where would be a good place to post it for sale?  I saw 
that there is a buy/sell database on this forum but doesn't look like 
anybody has ever posted to it.  Would appreciate any suggestions.

eBay...How much you looking to get out of it?

Thanks, I kind of considered eBay, but a couple of my buddies have 
had difficulties with dishonest and outright fraudulent buyers and 
eBay didn't live up to their promises of seller protection.  That's 
why I was wondering if there were any drumming specific sites that 
would work and in which people have had positive selling experiences.

About the price, I'll contact you and anybody that may be interested 
privately.    That way we'll spare the uninterested parties the back 
and forth dealings involved.  I didn't mean to use the forum as an 
advertisement platform, so I apologize for that...

If you have any questions about the kit and the price, please email 
me directly at jvillamil@... and I'll be happy to answer.

Thanks

Jaime

Hi Jaime,

I'm looking to buy a used III or IIIS minus the throne, bass pedal 
and HH stand.  

I bid for some kits on eBay, didn't win them, and then got a bunch 
of fraudulent second offers.   There is a ton of fraud going on in 
the drum kit section of eBay.  I would only be willing to buy a kit 
from an unknown private seller on the internet using escrow.com or 
some other buyer protection(s), which generally provide seller 
protection also. 

I'm wondering what that database is for myself.  Is it to post for 
items desired, or only for transactions completed?

Tom,

I sent you and a couple more guys some info on the kit and for some 
reason I think my email is not getting out.  If any of you guys wrote 
me and I didn't respond, I apologize.  Hopefully I'll get my email 
straight.  Write me again and I'll try responding.

  Anyway, I've seen first hand what happens on eBay with fradulent 
buyers and sellers.  I guess the rule of thumb is that if it's too 
good to be true, buyer beware...

I hadn't heard about this escrow.com.  Have you actually used it 
before?  What do they charge and how does it generally work?

Thanks,

Jaime

Hi, It's OK, I just saw it. 

> escrow.com.  Have you actually used it before?  What do they 
charge and how does it generally work?

I found it when I was researching a way to buy a kit online from a 
private seller.   They act as middleman for the $ and protect seller 
by guaranteeing payment.  They protect buyer by guaranteeing 
delivery and that product is as advertised and working.   I think it 
would cost about $35-45. for a purchase in the price range of a used 
IIIS.

I haven't actually used it yet.  Has anyone else?  It sounds like a 
nice setup for protection and peace of mind for both buyer and 
seller.

Tom,

When the current group of moderators inherited this group, there was 
alot of spam/porn. At that time we decided to limit commercial 
advertising of products here. If a members asked about a specific 
product, a company can respond to that request, but they can't just 
start advertising their products here. One company that is 
represented here that does an excellant job at supporting this group 
and staying within the bounds is Ed Morin at Drumbalaya. 

This left a gap for members here to buy/sell their goods. One choice 
was to allow posting in the database area, that way it would not 
interfere with the daily posts. If someone wanted to buy/sell 
something, they can go there and then take it offline through PM.

Our sister site hosted by one of the moderators here (VERN) also has 
a classified area. (www.dtxpressions.com)

Hey I will buy the hihat for a good price, and give you my hat hat 
pedal and pad from my dtxpress II to boot so you can still sell it  
as a set.  Let me know.

Coachman,

I don't believe I would be able to sell my Special Edition kit 
without the RHH, it's kind of the corner stone of the system.  I 
would suggest looking at Drumbalaya to see if they have the pads 
available for purchase.  Thanks for the interest.

I believe the RHH130 is available at both Drumalaya and at 
Dtxperience site.
