reel deals

I received that letter from Merrick's quite a while ago, maybe seven or eght months ago. Shimano has been a stronger proponent of set prices than has Penn. I think Penn in the last few years decided to join this party. The only time any deal on a Shimano happens is when they discontinue a line or change the products style and they farm out the old models. I don't sell tackle but as told by a fellow member of the list their are ways to attract a customer and keep them happy. And hey I have to tell you if a tackle shop can't put line on a Shimano 4000 given that the price is $239.00 last I checked somethings wrong.
