That is a great score................for $85, yes !
But even more so for a guy that has no quality ride with his kit.
One of the most essential components, IMO.
You will love it -- you will also never again go without a great ride cymbal.
So my instructor bought a used 20" Zildjian medium ride to try out, but it sounds almost identical to his current Zildjian Ping ride. He decided he doesn't need 2 nearly identical rides, so he is selling me the medium ride. He got an awesome deal on it ($85) and is just charging me what he paid for it. Score for me, now I will only have one sub-par cymbal left on my kit (ZBT Crash/Ride). I actually don't mind the ZBT as a secondary crash, but it sucked as a ride. The wife was cool with it as the kids needed an idea for what to get me for Christmas. I need to give it a good cleaning, but other than that it is good to go. Gotta love it when stuff falls into place for you!

That's a great deal
Looks like your lessons are paying off. Great score.
That's an excellent deal. This is also a very versatile cymbal, at least usually. I've heard a few that didn't sound good but the majority of them have a pretty consistent sound that'd work in most music.
