Jump on it. I paid $279 for a used Black Panther birdeye maple 6.5x14" snare. You can't go wrong with Mapex.

They're not currently making one in that depth, but it could be an older model. Their website used to have a better backlog of their old catalogs, but that seems to have gone the way of the dinosaur in their recent update.
Probably hard to go wrong for $75, like late8 said.
Mmm... Saturns.
Can you get a decent buzz roll on a popcorn snare or is it all about the "crack?"

I'm mostly after the crack. Anything more out of it'll be a bonus.
So popcorns for Blues=not good?

I believe a little too sharp for most blues but might make for interesting accents, that's what Im looking to use it for
Exactly spaz, just saying I want to throw that snap in occasionally, like an accent. Might be a real attention grabber
Damn! Guys out of town until Thursday. I head home for the weekend on Thursday and not back to his area until Sunday evening. Keeping fingers crossed he doesn't sell it before I can hook up with him!
the taiwan made ones are slightly lesser quality than the chinese built ones however still nice snares ..
Mapex make great quality drums, i've had a few of their kits and snares.
cheers

Just talked to the guy selling the drum and, I'm going to pick it up Monday after work! Guess I'm pretty lucky to have a job that keeps me traveling between 5 states most the time. Gives me better opportunities to find deals (also picking up a 5 pc "made in England" set of Premiers for $100 on Tuesday) and not have to pay to have the gear shipped!
^awesome news~ !
Picked the drum up last night . Very nice drum! I well get some pics, at least on my profile page as soon as I can. Can't wait to get it home and in to my kit
Uploaded some pics on my profile page. A beauty of a drum and exactly the "POP" I was looking for!
