Brian Needham Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 WOW , glad I sold my used ones before this came up! heck of a price! Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted September 9, 2013 Super User Posted September 9, 2013 Must........resist.........the.......temptation. Very good price indeed! Jeff Quote
bmlum415 Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Still only the RH ones. Laaame. exactly what I was thinking, Quote
Super User Goose52 Posted September 9, 2013 Super User Posted September 9, 2013 Hmmmmm. There have been rumors, and a statement by Bantam1, of more low-profile BC reel releases on the way from Shimano....perhaps in October. Is this Gander Mountain price reduction a sign that there is a Core replacement on the way......................or is it just a really good sale............... Quote

New reel coming think METal. Quote
Quillback Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Still only the RH ones. Laaame. Funny thing is, the one shown in the ad is a leftie. Quote
Drewski73 Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Funny thing is, the one shown in the ad is a leftie. Yeah, and if you look at the bottom of the page, the pic for the 51, is a rightie.... Quote
jeb2 Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Their description is wrong also. They say it has MG sideplates, but it does not. The 50/51 have carbon fiber sideplates. The bigger Core's have the MG sideplates. They weigh slightly more too, of course. At any rate, great prices on these reels. I really like the pair I own, but just don't need anymore of them. Quote
MediumHeavy Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Maybe there's a new Core on the way? And maybe a Citica or reel in sub-Curado price point? I think the Citica's were recently clearanced by Dick's. Quote
Super User DogBone_384 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Super User Posted September 9, 2013 Great replies.... It sure looks like Shimano's & Gander Mountain's marketing departments are fishing too.... I wonder who bites!?!?!?! Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted September 9, 2013 Super User Posted September 9, 2013 Great replies.... It sure looks like Shimano's & Gander Mountain's marketing departments are fishing too.... I wonder who bites!?!?!?! You guys know I can't say anything yet. I will say they will not be CI4 models. One will me made of METal...and they will be low profile reels.

Mike__D Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 What was the price of the core's??? mike D Quote
curtis9 Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 They had them for $249 for 4th of July with a $50 off of $250 coupon. I picked up a pair for $200 each. Quote
curtis9 Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 Gander Mtn tends to randomly mark down some gear. They currently have Chronarch 201E7 for $149. Add something cheap to get above $150 and use coupon code you can get another $15 off and free shipping. All of the other Chronarchs are still $199. Quote
Mike__D Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 d**n that is a really really good price!!! I am in the process of buying one now off TT for $250. It's used but in mint condition. Wish I would have found this post sooner, would have definitely ordered at least one from gander. Mike D Quote
curtis9 Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 I'm not a big fan of their in store selection, but they have good deals online. They had a $50 rebate on St. Croix rods early this year, plus the coupon code, so I picked up a new Avid crankbait rod for $125 shipped. Quote
MO_LMB Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 Yeah, they are sold out now so you can't add it to the cart. Anyone? What was the price of the core's??? mike D Quote
DirtyDeuceGoose Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 If I remember they were 279.99 Quote
Cgrinder Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 Boo sales tax, but thanks for the heads up on the Chronarch. $148 shipped. Not bad! Quote
