She told me that she was told she couldn't get a kit cheaper than the DW kit she bought. Imagine the look on her face when I told her I have less than $1500 in my entire kit, then showed her the online site to another local store where she can get a five piece Mapex with hi hats, two crash cymbals, a ride cymbal, and a throne for $750.
