Don't worry Luds, I'm in the same boat as you. I'm glad I bought mine when I was younger. I love my reels to death and will use them to the day I can't fish anymore but I'd struggle to justify buying one now, even with the hindsight of knowing how good mine have been to me for many years. $739 for a 250 just hurts...
