Re: can someone explain to me why this is so expensive? That's not a crack in the cymbal that has been drilled, it has been drilled for a rivet to make the cymbal sizzle. This is a vintage cymbal from when Zildian cymbals were still made in Istanbul Turkey. This cymbal without a signature is somewhat of a collectors item, with a signature of a famous drummer it could be even more valuable if the signature can be authenticated. I'm not up on what collectors will pay for these but I do know this particular cymbal is a collectors item, and will be priced accordingly. |
