Sellers posing black steel snare drums as brass

Iespecially watch drums being sold on okay.Ihave noticed thatsomesellersrepresent the inexpensive black plated 8-lug steel snare drums that used to gee with Tama Rockstar sets as being brass (along with some other brands that happen to be black metal).I assume this is due to the currentpopularity of black brass snare drums such as the Ludwig Black Beauty. Some of the adsI have seenhave even referred to the Tama drum being sold as a Black Beauty. I understand that there may be some cases of seller ignorance of the facts instead of intentional fraud. However, it has begee too gemon and too obvious to always be the case. Another case of "know what you're buying". The Tama black steel snare is a good drum but canoften be had for under $50. The Ludwig Black Beauty often brings over$500.
