Just in case you didn't know, Shimano have stopped producing the 5000 sized Baitrunners. Surprisingly, as soon as they did, the demand increased and second hand prices started to rise. Your £40 probably seems reasonable enough for a reel (5000RE (Limited Edition) that was discounted as low as £55 in the end. It's maybe about a fiver light (postage cost) for the original single handled 5000RE. The snag is your pricing doesn't take any account of the increased demand. You could look on the bright side, at least it's not a 5000XTEA you are chasing. They have a nasty habit of going for more than the original RRP on Ebay.:eek:

Good luck with the search.
