It doesn't make sense for them to keep replacing reels for free. That has to cost them a small fortune platinum service or not. Look what happened with Pure Fishing they replaced tons of Nautil reels and eventually stopped making them because it was cost prohibitive. It is one thing if the reel is under warranty. Or platinum service is an extended warranty, but if platinum service is just a service plan with no implied replacement warranty there is no bitch there

i sent them a sahara 4000, a spheros 6000, and a stradic 4000 that had all frozen up. all cam eback in a few weeks, but the saharas drag was now frozen, which it wasnt before, it it happened somehwere i dont know but at least fix it. Thought a switch to diawa would be better, after buying a saltiga and having that die fast, switched again penn and VS

They probably take the labels off and sell them to Building 19.
