MacFly [signature] Re: [macfly55] Whats this all about? - Dryrod - 08-27-2009 [font "Comic Sans MS"][#008000][size 3]I think that those items might be HOT. Where does someone get a whole bunch of new rods and reels unless they are a dealer. If you notice that the corks are still wrapped in plastic.[/size][/#008000][/font] [signature] Re: [Dryrod] Whats this all about? - macfly55 - 08-27-2009 I noticed that.. but when I read the description it also said there was a lot of parts.. some new.. some used (but as you said most of it looks new to me).. and they were clearing miscellaneous "left overs" to make room for new stock.. ?? still at 10 bucks.. for at least three new reels, a rod case.. and from I can see at least 5 or 6 rods?? it is really tempting to say the least.. :-) MacFly [cool] [signature] Re: [macfly55] Whats this all about? - peter805 - 08-28-2009 [quote macfly55]I noticed that.. but when I read the description it also said there was a lot of parts.. some new.. some used (but as you said most of it looks new to me).. and they were clearing miscellaneous "left overs" to make room for new stock.. ?? still at 10 bucks.. for at least three new reels, a rod case.. and from I can see at least 5 or 6 rods?? it is really tempting to say the least.. :-) MacFly [cool][/quote] More like 25+ rods. Looking at the rods most look like some cheap stuff.But stil, where did all that stuff come from ?!?!?!?!? Peter [signature] Re: [Dryrod] Whats this all about? - peter805 - 08-28-2009 What does that auctions heading say???? Or auction number or something please. I would like to take a closer look, just to see whats up.

I looked at it and I dont think its that good of a stuff. For the most part those are "starter" rods and most maybe damaged. Now, if some fly club wants to get bunch of kids going on FF it maybe a good thing. I will watch it and see what happens. My guess is -it will sell for $167.00 for everything. But thats just MY guess.Lets have some fun with it. What is YOUR and everybody alse guess???????????????? Who ever is closer to final price will WIN a prize that I will send to personaly. It wont be big but It will be nice. You must guess no later then 48 hours before the auction ends. Peter [signature] Re: [peter805] Whats this all about? - macfly55 - 08-28-2009 lets see.. those all in ones would go for about 60.00 each new.. I see like four of those.. plus the extra gear.. the rod/reel bag, and the shakespeare rod they mention.. now. it being on ebay as an auction for as they say a "quick sell" to make way for new inventory.. Id say the whole lot will go for about .. hmmmmm.. $90.00.. plus shipping.. MacFly[cool] [signature] Re: [macfly55] Whats this all about? - peter805 - 09-01-2009 Ok, no more guessing from anyone. Well, it sure looks like its just you and me big guy. Nobody alse wanted to play[:/]. I hope you win [] Peter [signature] Re: [peter805] Whats this all about? - Dryrod - 09-01-2009 [center][font "Comic Sans MS"][#008000][size 3][blush]Sorry - completely slipped my mind.
