You've had a windfall just when you needed one. Sell them pronto and I hope you get one of those insane eBay buyers to pay you three times what they're worth. Good luck and hope you get a better job soon.

What a div the geezer. Regardless whether they needed to be sold it doesn't matter. The shops don't give people presents, they're prizes/publicity tactics

What a complete and upper load of tosh, using your logic a lottery winner would only be able to spend £2 of their winnings, utter rubbish.

To OP absolutely sell them, looking after your family is way more important than a bit of fishing tackle and good luck finding another job.

What the f uck are you talking about with your gibberish nonsense? Talk about muddying the waters much.

Entering a cash prize lottery is totally different than entering a contest for a physical item.

As for the other posting here backing up OP's idea to sell these reels: you all seriously lack morals, integrity and ethics. No wonder we're in the societal decay that is so evident all around. I can not even parse the idea of winning a prize and then selling it on and making money off of that prize; it simply doesn't compute. It's totally wrong.

I really don't care what any of you think of my opinions aired here.

The irony of all of this is that you lot will bitch and scream about tackle companies ripping you off, yet see nothing inherently wrong in selling on large ticket items won as a prize for cash money. Lul.

I really don't care what any of you think of my opinions aired here. Anyway, thanks for revealing yourselves 👍

I would also sell them and buy Basias

And Op does what he wants with his price.
Must be great to win something like this and if he sale it to ensure he get extra money for his family then that is great

The only morals here is a fella putting his family's best interests over a set of shiny new top end reels, and that's to be applauded.

But aside from that he has every right to sell the reels and do what the hell he wants with the money.

Who loses out if the OP sells his reels?

Angling direct would have got hits on the website and the sales that go with that.
Shimano donate the reels and Angling Direct plug them as part of the competition.
OP bothers to enter the competition (most people wouldn't) and wins. He sells, the buyer gets some brand new reels for a better price and the OP has the cash to keep him going while looking for a new job.

Interested to see what you find unethical in any of these transactions?

Or did you enter and not win
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
