Do removed/faded cymbal logos dramatically drop resale value of a cymbal?

they say it shows that the logo shows how much the cymbals are used.
so it lowers the value i think,i never buy 2nd hand cymbals kung di ko kilala ang may ari.

Hindi dapat. Purely cosmetic issue yung walang logo. Kung tama paglinis the worst thing that can happen is mawala yung protective coating ng cymbal sa kakalinis, which may eventually lead to patina sa surface ng cymbal - not necessarily a bad thing. Read that some Zildjian As and Ks actually don't have protective coating by default. Pero syempre para sa buyer opportunity para mag negotiate ng presyo yung logo

[Akira JUMBO]

YES. Cosmetic issue or not, through experience most cymbals I have come across that has faded or no logo at all are usually priced cheaper than those with.

[dolfmen]

ok lang sakin lalo na pag K's  gumaganda kasi tunog. 

[gss]

Yes, for newer cymbals. Pero come to think of it, kung vintage, ok lang kung burado na ang logos, they even command higher prices.

[kulapoot]

Ok lang saken faded logos.kahet ,may stain pa.basta walang damage,crack,dents,keyhole etc.  Usually masmura binebenta kapag faded logos.advantage for me

[iplaydrums4u]

faded or erased logos may also mean one thing, : the cymbal had been exposed to abrasive compounds to polish it which actually degrades the cymbal.

Ako, oo.
Bigtime points din se un e
Tapos makintab pa, ay astig yun!

[Ralph_Petrucci]

Unfortunately, Yes.

Ang laki ng price difference eh. lalo na yung mga sobrang linaw pa ng logos.

well, I myself prefer those na may logo pa, syempre, patunay na bago bago pa siya at never been cleaned "the wrong way" i.e. GLO.
