a $1000 rod being sold for $350?


Sounds like some Airflo advert


I have heard of them for a while now but something about this doesnt smell right............perhaps it was my wallet shuffling further down my trollies and away from my hand

Thumbs up Re: Heads up for yank members

That is a hell of a deal; too bad I can't justify buying another rod at this time.

From the rods I've shipped to the UK that sounds just about right.

Does anyone know about this lot.? are they geninely manufacturers of top end rods/reels or one of these chancers who say their MRP is £1,000 when in reality you'd never pay more than the £250 asked??

Here's a 'cast off' of several rods including one of the Albright's. It came in #2 ahead of several other very well known brands: Fly Rod Comparison Albright G. Loomis Orvis Sage Scott Temple Fork Thomas & Thomas Tom Morgan Rodsmiths R.L. Winston rod testing

Age dated? http://flyanglersonline.com/alcampbell/albright.php

Rods appear to American designed but built 'off shore.'

I think there's more truth to that than you may think.
