Because quality pins last more than one lifetime the market for new expensive reels must be pretty small, so it's no surprise they're taking this route.
Glad i bought all the J W Young & Arnold Kingpin centrepins i will ever need over 10 years ago. The appeal for me was British made products to last a lifetime, also the Arnolds were made down the road from me in Wimborne Dorset.

Sad to hear 😢 but at least they'll carry on...for now.
Had my eye on one for at least a decade, prices have slowly been going up, almost bought one but thought it's a bit expensive to gather dust so bought a Okuma Sheffield. Maybe I should reconsider, I can imagine they'll become a pre dragon collectable, bit like French Mitchells 🤔
