I have sold a few rods in Auctions and they usually only reach my reserve price, a £100 valued rod will get £50 kind of thing.
I did think I would try and help and came across these conversations on other forums which I think may make your question more confusing so, I wasn't going to post them but as I had copied them anyway I thought why not. Might not be much help but you might pick up a few clues from them:-
There nice rods,i got 3 of em,were top of the range when they came out in 1989 at £195,great river rods.shows how ahead of their time they were as they are still lighter etc than many top rods today.
hi mate the rod your on about is of higher quality than the others mentioned and originaly cost £300 it has 24 strand carbon as opposed to 12.still a cracking rod and a lovely soft tip action.
I have a 'Daiwa Amorphous Whisker Harrier 13ft light match rod'. if this is the rod you mean then it's a brilliant rod with a light & crisp action which has won me many matches and is rated for hooklengths down to ¾lb
l have got two Daiwa Amorphous Whisker Harrier 13ft waggler rods. brilliant rod to own and use. one of them has still got 95 percent of the plastic coating on the handle.
AND:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've just been up in the attic having a bit of a sort out of all my old tackle and beneath all the cobwebs I came across an old favourite that hasn't been used for more years than i can remember!
It is a Daiwa WHISKER KEVLAR MATCH Harrier Match Super light WKM14CF 14' (4.27m)
It's three pieces with full cork handle and spigot ferrules.
Does anyone remember these rods? Would it be worth putting it on Ebay,or shall I keep it for my grandchildren to sell as a true angling antique?
LOL! Its still a very usable rod mate and quite an expensive one in its day.Wont ever really be a true collectible but then again wont really ever become outdated.Either hold out for a good price (if you dont want to use it) or keep it for your kids as a top range rod to use!
Why not take it out and try it you may be pleasantly surprised. I just tried my 13ft spliced tip version and now its back in my holdall.
Seen the 13ft go on ebay recently cant remember exactly what it got but did very well. arround £100.
It depends on the condition. If it's in good clean used condition I reckon your looking at between £40 and £65 on ebay. I have some tournament whisker kevlar carp rods myself. The Amorphous whisker where the more expensive version.
