Good Deal?

Hello John,
In another Forum this Mic deal was discussed a bit.
About 4 weeks ago, I scanned MF for some current prices on Mics and to see what new products are available. I admit I generally don't buy anything from MF or GC. But, if you are looking at purchasing a Mic, they're a good indicator of what you can expect to pay for your chosen product.
Anyway, it was an early Sunday Morning...looking at Mics. Scanning some old faithfuls and a couple models that I don't have, and a couple of prices caught my eye. There were some really nice small, Condenser Mics and then a Couple of Drum Mic packages from EV that seemed ridiculously low in price.
I bought two of the PL DK 7 Mic Kits at $179.95 ea (same as referenced but with 2 additonal Condenser Mics.) These Mic Packages are usually on sale for about $650.00
I figure they're EV, how bad can they be...and, since I collect Mics....they'll add to my collection. After placing my order, I returned to the Website to find the Mic prices returned to their standard pricing, seems as though someone entered the wrong pricing...?
This past week, I had the opportunity to try the PL 35 mics, not on Drums, but a horn Section, and they sounded pretty good. Haven't had the opportunity to try the PL 33 (Kick Mic) or the two PL 37s (Condensers)
They may never be my go-to Mics for Drums, but as a backup Mic probably more than worth the price. So far...a great deal.
Cheers,
Hammer
ps I'm wondering if these Mics are/will be a discontinued product either from MF or from EV....
pss I bought two of these advertised kits today, one for me, and one for an additional poster.
