Bps stampede spinning reels problem

[berkleyfan81]

My one friend was giving away some bps stampede spinning reels for free I picked them up thinking they were fine .Until  I got home and reel them they started wobbling reel bad one a regular spinning reel with front drag and the other Rear drag . Anyone have this problem it the red ones noth the newer ones . I contact bps they say to send them in but I look up the prices and they kinda high. So wondering is the a part I'm missing or just Junk them ?

I would not spend any money on them.  You can walk into BPS and buy one in a rod and reel combo for only $27.00.  The reels sell new for only $17,

They are not worth anything.  Save you money and get a better couple of reels.  Take a look at the Tourney and Extreme reels. They are both on sale.

The problem is its a BPS Stampede reel.

Cheap spinning reels wobble because they have insufficient or no counter weight in the rotor.

Delaware valley tackle , I notice that maybe the counter weight was supposed to be in the reel but it's missing . In both ill probably just trade them .
