Spinning Reel Report - November 2006
E-BAY JUST MIGHT BE NUMBER 1 BUT IT WASN'T THE
ONLY SHOW IN TOWN THIS MONTH!!!!
Featured Reels: Do you ever get
suspicious when a reel sells for much more than the current collectors
value? ( I DO). This was the case when an Abu Cardinal 33CDL NIB w/S/N
00844 reportedly sold last month @$2125.00. The reel apparently did
not sell and it was re-listed by the seller this month and sold for
$330.25. But why didn't the seller sell it to the next high bidder???
