Ive always said you get what you pay for,but recently(last week)i sent a shimano stradic 4000 gtm(japanese model)back to Felindre for a service and a minor problem with the fighting drag,had a call from them stating that certain parts were now unavailable,so they put a new drag washer in and are in process of sending it back,without being able to service the reel,my thought at present is that daiwa and shimano only hold spares for models around 5 years i believe,in my experience,problems dont normally arise for around 8-10 years,barring accidental damage,so my question to you is,is it worth spending around £200 on say a daiwa tdx,when in 5 years its defunct?
