I'm sure some people have seen this post title more than they'd like to...but....
I have had my mind set on buying a VS200 for the past year or so. Saved up the money but Ive recently read alot of situations where the case starts to leak oil

.
Is this something that happens to the pre-zebco reels?
Do I need to keep the warranty valid and send it back each year? Is it worth investing the $50+ year?
Any other reel suggestions? First hand experiences?
Any information would be appreciated.... Relative newbie here to the site
