mheichelbech Posted June 20, 2020 Posted June 20, 2020 Chatting with a guy about a G Loomis NR, for $125. He said they bought a bunch of blanks in bulk, built the rods and is selling them for $125 because they didn’t get the sticker with the blanks. Seem suspicious..any thoughts on such a deal? Also the Shimano Solstace is included in the deal. 1 Quote
camman Posted June 20, 2020 Posted June 20, 2020 G Loomis stopped selling blanks years ago before the NRX rods even came out...so I wouldn't believe it 1 Quote
Manifestgtr Posted June 20, 2020 Posted June 20, 2020 Is he a reputable builder in the area? Thats always my number one when it comes to deals and buying stuff like this. Guy who’s new to the area with a bunch of gray sticks in the back of his ‘95 f-150? Builder with a shop and hundreds of satisfied customers, including pros and tourney cats? The answer to that question can tell you much of what you need to know right off the bat Quote
Super User FishTank Posted June 20, 2020 Super User Posted June 20, 2020 I would pass. G. Loomis stopped selling blanks around 2008-09. Quote

These are extremely popular. Ask him about his source for cork. I have some that I could sell him that looks better than what hes using ... i just have to take it off the old lightning rods. Quote
Super User flyfisher Posted June 20, 2020 Super User Posted June 20, 2020 sounds like the guy who talks to you in the parking lot and says he was delivering speakers to a store and they had extra and they said he could keep them and he is selling them at a discount..... 1 Quote
