I was at the eye doctor and I came across this top 10 list. I had to ask the doc to re-exam my eyes. LOL

Marketing at its finest...looks like a few reels with a high mark up and reels where they will make a profit selling in quantity.

The prices are so wildly different it makes you wonder how they rate them. A 50 dollar reel in the same category as a $600 one?

"How much of a discount will you give us on your reels in bulk to put them in our top ten?" Here is our top ten list of reels which we recently got a great discount on.

When I subscribed to F&S I emailed them to ask the same question and what they told me made a lot of sense. They test reels of all price ranges and they use a formula of performance, price, and value for their list as well as how far above price point a reel performs. Everyone expects the best to be expensive but when you have a diverse readership that includes all income spectrums, a list of reels that maybe 1/4 of the readers can afford isn't going to interest a lot of people so they have to add value into the equation.
