JDUB Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 A local store has 4 citica e's they never sold, they are $105 right now and will drop in price probably every 2-4 weeks now, so what I wanna know is at what price point do they become too good to pass up? Quote

Fishwhittler Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 That's not really a great price, but it's not bad. It's about what they sold for while in production. If they drop to below $100, you're getting a good deal. $75 - $85 and you're talking a great deal, and lower than that is almost armed robbery. Demand has gone up for the E's, and you're not often going to find a NIB Citica E for less than $80. Quote

The Gander near me was selling them last year for $79....well they have them again and guess what? $120...I asked the guy why and he couldn't answer. He said they just keep getting them in....I think the reel is worth the money but after paying $80 it's hard to swallow $40 more....$105 isn't great either but better than $120.... Quote
Super User J Francho Posted April 24, 2013 Super User Posted April 24, 2013 $80 is a decent price for them. I've seen them as low as $60. Quote
BronzeChaser Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 I've got two citica e's. They're not the most refined reel, but a really good workhorse reel. I use one for spinnerbaits/ swim jigs and the other for mid range cranking. Great casting, very smooth (despite the low bearing count), and durable. I'd say around $100 or less is a good deal. Quote
The Next KVD Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 When the E series first came out I got 7 or 8 of them for $80 each at a sportshow. For $105, I'd bite. Its about what you'd pay for some of them ebay. Under $100 would be a great deal but $105 aint bad and if you want one now get one. 1 Quote
