The seller should include some KY Jelly with that for the buyer cuz he's gonna feel it when he loses that plug.

VB I understand the rarity but $600. I remember Flap saying the most he spent was 2 or 3 hundred but this is crazy. My wife would kill me.

It is a little crazy on freakbay right now.
I find it funny as hell when the Newbie collectors with $$$$$
Are paying stupid money on lures that date from last week,Hab's or the Beachmasters, Hell put a few Lex lures out their and see what some people will pay.
It's all a cycle, sit back and watch

The old stuff (fresh water) is now demanding Thousands

I have a couple of double Plano boxes full of Beachmaster A-40s and Atom Jrs. Maybe I should start locking my garage

Together with a few dozen Habs, I'm sitting on a flipping gold mine here

with any luck the gps chip will let Mike and John know who will be cut off from now on...

the full moon looks orange sometimes when it rises because the light has to pass through more of the atmosphere then when the moon is higher in the sky. the blue light waves scatter but the red light waves pass through...... if you were wondering.

their alive an well!......I sometimes find that if you look to see where these people live...they don't have shops in their state that carry the items, so the intenet is the only way to buy wanted wares.

I can get them down here for a lot less than $61 a pop

Last time I got A-40s from CMS, they were like $17 without hooks.

$22 for Cowboys last season.

Not too long ago, the Atom Jrs were 2/$25 at a certain shop in Flushing

this is just wrong

it's hard enough to get these lure without this guy

buying them and trying to profit from them

it's just knot right, it took me a year and a half

to finally get two habs needles. i think some how he should be found

out and band from buying them
