Super User FishTank Posted December 10, 2020 Super User Posted December 10, 2020 I was getting ready to order parts for a few reels that I getting ready to work on and noticed on Shimano website that they only seem to have parts for current reels. For example, I ordered a few things for my Curado G last earlier this year and they only list the K and DC now. Anybody know what's going on? https://fishshop.shimano.com/collections/low-profile Quote

garroyo130 Posted December 10, 2020 Posted December 10, 2020 How are you looking for the parts? I ordered parts for a Citica I not long ago. Just had to search by exact part number. Find a schematic and search by part number on the Shimano website. Quote

I see what you are saying by putting in the part number but the way I was looking was under parts tab then low profile (see link above). It only shows schematics for the current reels. It use to bring up each reel as far back as the Curado D time frame. Quote

I've never ordered a part from them for a reel that is still available on the website. Always have to do the search, copy/paste. Quote
DomQ Posted December 11, 2020 Posted December 11, 2020 Wow ya you are correct, they changed the parts selection. Thats weird, I just ordered a bunch of parts in October so it much have been done in the last couple months. Thats a bummer... Quote
Super User bulldog1935 Posted December 11, 2020 Super User Posted December 11, 2020 Plat in Nagasaki is a great source for parts, great Japan braid, lures, rods, Yumeya and SLP upgrade parts. With the current postal crunch, since April they have only been shipping to US with DHL Express, which gets here in just a few days, so order enough stuff $20 shipping worthwhile. Quote
