What shipping charges though?

Don't tell a soul about this, but I got mine brand new, boxed, off Ebay. Chap in Brum - ?52. + ?5.40 postage.

Woody, try the BassPro website. They ship all over the world and and only charge a few bucks for postage. A friend of mine order a couple of Diawa six ft. one piece spinning rods from them and I believe the shipping cost was about $10. He reckoned overall he saved about 60 quid on the whole deal.

Just bought one of these, and regret it. Looks great at first, but build quality is appalling. Bail arm wouldn't trigger (like Jeff's), managed to fix this but it also jams slightly when run slowly - interfering with retrieve when lure fishing. By making the reel smaller they seem to have obstructed the moving parts inside! V. poor for an expensive reel, spend your money elsewhere!
