RedHeadAngler Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Today I went to academy sports planning on buying a pack of trick worms and I came out with a Shimano Citica 200 g7. It was on sale for $64.99 and it's original price was $129.99. Did I get a deal? P.S. Go Panthers!!! Keep pounding!!! 1 Quote
Fishinthefish Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 You can usually find them around 90$ on aunction sites. So unless they're discontinuing it for a better model that I haven't heard of I would say yes you definitely got a pretty good deal. They retail for 130ish$ as you said. So not bad all in all, roughly half price. Quote
bootytrain Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 You got a good deal... That reel is a sleeper for sure Quote
Philo Beddoe Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Deal=yes! Now I'm heading to Academy. Quote

Rbm18 Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 At $65.00 new that is a great deal I don't care which model it is G,E,I Quote
Super User deaknh03 Posted February 6, 2016 Super User Posted February 6, 2016 The force is strong in this one... Quote
tander Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 I thought everyone knew that when you go in for a pack of worms that you are suppose to buy a reel too !!! Quote

Delaware Valley Tackle Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 The G series got totally overlooked and you benefitted. That's a great deal on z good reel. Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted February 6, 2016 Super User Posted February 6, 2016 I would say so for a NIB reel. The G series was one that was lost in the shuffle between the ever popular E series and love it or hate it "I" series which is where Shimano changed the breaking system. Enjoy your reel! Quote
