well the wanted section works,i think it helps to put a price with what you are prepared to pay for your wanted item.
my made in england battenkill la I in gold must be made of "raretanium" as there was only one up for sale in the world on ebay .this one went for £125 + £40 shipping + £25% import taxes [url=http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370359438385&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT]Orvis Battenkill LA I url] ,would have cost me a fortune
many thanks to mrtrout and coasty for putting a word in and pointing me in the right direction and for doing a deal with me.im well happy ,nothing else would have done for my superfine and i looked at everything!! it even takes my wf4 + 100yds of gelspun backing(bonus) i know its a bit tackle tarty but it sure gives me extra pleasure on top of a sport i love so much anyway.cheers boys

DD, they are fine reels especially the made in england ones ,i have one myself which i got from ukmric1(martin) and any of his stuff is like new ,then i got a spare spool off WCB(toby) got both for just over the ton or maybe it was less cant remember, but definitely no more than £105
