John,
I don't know if this is allowed but I just picked up 2 band new VS300's for 475.00 ea. and thought it might be of interest to some members?
SIMMONS SPORTING GOODS
1 205 426 0490
They said they purchased a lot of them and wanted to move them out? He quoted 500 ea and took 50 off because I purchased 2.

I'm very interested...PM sent

Great reel - still my favorite when I throw with the 11 foot stick. Big spool will give you lots of extra distance when needed. Slow retrieve is perfect for plugging and eeling. Jump on it.

B is bailed, right?

I'm ascared to use a bail now cause I'll forget about it. :bl:

It might mean "Black" not bailed. I'm not sure if they ever made the 300 bailed?

i think its black.

If they made a bailed VS300 and it was black the model number would be VSB300B. The B in the prefix designates bailed. The B in the suffix designates the color. So a silver bailed reel would be VSB300S.
But I believe as mentioned, they don't make a bailed 300 reel.

Van Staal doesn't offer a bailed version of the 275 or 300, both are bailless only. The 300 has a slower retrieve ratio 3.25/1 and the 275 has the 4.24/1 ratio.

I called them today and they will sell the 275 for $500. If I can get one more guy to buy one, they will do them for $475. Anyone interested let
Me know by tomorrow? No tax and shipping included,
$475 is a great deal....

I ordered 2 of the 275's from these guys last week. The 275's have a higher gear ratio than the 300's and are great for for stand up tuna on spinning gear.
