I would not be concerned about the serial number. They are all quaility IMO. Turn around time varies by time of year. If you send your reel back for yearly service in March it will take 4-6 weeks because every other vs owner is sending it in at the same time. If you send it in earlier it will take closer to two weeks. During the season is even faster because everyone is fishing their reels not sending them in for service. Seems that any guy that has had a major problem has received extremely fast service.
I would check out the VS site for warranty info and read it for yourself. As long as you send it in yearly you should not have any problems and whatever it costs is worth is because you basically get a new reel back every year.
I personally would not buy a used one. Buying used always has some risked involved. Piece of mind is worth an extra $100 to me when you're buying something that expensive.
