Hi I’m in the market for a pair of reels, I’m just getting back out there fishing after an 18month break seen these on eBay, is it a fair deal? Iv had a set of tourneys before years ago and got rid of them due to the original shark tooth clip and they obviously weren’t QD

There's some Daiwa Crosscasts for sale in the classifieds for about £200 and you can't go wrong.

Hi mate, yeah iv had crosscasts before was decent reels for the money, iv had most decent diawa/shims over the years, I don’t use Facebook so I don’t realy know the 2nd hand market price of things I think I sold 3 tourneys for 550 quid about 3 years ago, mine were just standard spools. I don’t have a thumbs up so can’t use the classified section. 👍

Sound a little expensive to me - you should be looking to pay under £200 per reel for a minter IMO

Seems mega money for second hand.

They normally go for around 150 each

Agreed, if you aren't in a hurry they're regularly discounted by tft to about 50 quid more than them for new

No thumbs up?

That's something I should sort...anyone who's Premium can go straight into Classifieds and bypass the 100post/x month rule.
That rule was only put in place to stop anonymous people joining and scamming someone, then disappearing with money...

You have a thumb now, I will go and ensure all other Premium members have the thumb too 👍

Weirdly, nobody’s thumbs are visible to me, not even my own? 🤔

Edit: my bad, on the new forum version, it’s the green tick box 🤦🏼‍♂️

Weston spools ruin 'em IMO . . .Go original . . .the gold ones look great on the Black Edition reels as well . . .! You can still QD them with a Reel Kings cap or similar . . .

Angling Direct are doing these for £299. I’ve managed to haggle a few shops down to £250 in the past.
