A few years ago I could have bought 3 for 1800 bucks and now that basically barely gets you two. Wow......you might as well move this thread over to the grumpy old pharts forum. I'm ashamed of myself for making this post. Who have I become.
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...
