Anyone heard of DrumBum.com for musical instruments?

Here's a link to their kid's section...

Anyone ever seen this site or ordered from them? They have some instruments I haven't seen in other places... like sand blocks. I remember playing with those in music class at school :-)

Thanks!

Don't know how much of a rush you're in, but the BBB Yahoo Co-op group is looking into a co-op with http://www.westmusic.com. I've ordered from them a TON as an elementary music teacher, and they're awesome. Customer service is top rate. Their prices are usually very competitive as well.

Just for example: on DrumBum these fruit shakers are $7.95 each, and on West, you get all 9 for $30.20!

And the Remo Kid's Bongos are $55 on DrumBum and $30 on West:

And your sandpaper blocks aren't the same on West, but they have a pair for $1.80 instead of $5.95 (admittedly, I like the handles better on the Bum site if it's for a younger kid, but for the prices, I'd go with West if I were ordering several things.)
