djmax22 Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Nice Haul! I too go crazy on Ebay. Some say I have an addiction, but i have saved thousands shopping by shopping on Ebay! Quote
Super User cart7t Posted December 30, 2008 Super User Posted December 30, 2008 shhhhhh...... Ebay has been a great place to pu great bargains, especially on the Patriarchs. No need to spread that word around too much. Quote
Matt 825 Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Yeah I am an ebay junkie also. It seems like every day I get a package in the mail. I have been getting slender pointers 112's for less than $10 recently. Also got a few sweet crankbaits Quote
jimmieO Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 I bought a brand new pinnacle solene reel on ebay just because it was 15 bucks. Its not the fanciest thing in the world, but its normally 50 at Walmart. Quote
ChiCityBasser Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 I go a little crazy on ebay at times as well. Now is the time I get all my custom painted lures (crankbaits,topwaters.ect.) from ebay but picked up some good deals on rods and reels as well. Cabelas Mag Touch 6'6" $55+9s/h = $64 Quantum Catalyst PTI-A20 $37+10s/h bent handle $16(Quantum) = $63 Quantum Exceler 10 $25+10s/h broken bail (Quantum replaced the reel with a new one $10s/h) = $45 Daiwa Megaforce $35+$10s/h = $45 Some of the deals I have gotten Quote
scbassin Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Shimano Calais 201DC $391.50 shipped Shimano Calais 201DC $375 Shipped Quote
BARON49_Northern NY Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 I am new to dealing with Ebay. However after getting two Revo Winches for $140 each when they retail for $199.99 each. I have to say I am impressed and will start doing more looking there before hitting the big box tackle stores. Quote
shootermcbob Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Dare I ask??? Where on ebay are you finding these gems???? If you don't want to post your secret shopping spots, maybe you could pm me. thanks Quote
ChiCityBasser Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Just have to hunt around on ebay and do searches for whatever it is you are interested in for example ..search :Shimano Sahara and it should give you not only the open auctions and stores selling them as well. I got most of my deals thru the online store: WildWestBargains and they sell both new and used Rods and Reels in open auction Quote
Stingray23 Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Ebay's a dangerous place for me too. I send too much time and money there. But I love getting a bargain. I feel like I robbed them blind. I spent so much these last 2 months i'd rather not disclose. Quote
von Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I thought I was bad! Over $700 in one month!!!.... I'll buy the next round! You got some nice deals though! I hate ebay.... Quote
LAO162 Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 BigRick - nice haul However, you seem to be out of balance. You have 4 reels and only 2 rods. I suggest that you buy 2 more rods. Better yet, send the two extra rods to me Enjoy in them in the New Year Quote
BARON49_Northern NY Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Dare I ask??? Where on ebay are you finding these gems???? If you don't want to post your secret shopping spots, maybe you could pm me. thanks I just do a search with as much information as I can on Ebay. If you are not getting hits, then try different wording for your searches. Quote
ThomasL Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I've been fairly ticked with ebay this year,i canceled my paypal account,it was bad enough with the seller fees and list fees with ebay i couldn't take paypal burning me also,so on all my ads i said postal money orders only,d**n if several bid and won then tried weaseling out of paying and i hit them with a unpaid item strike and blocked them from bidding from me again!Ebay just doesn't do enough to people winning bids and then not following through on payments,they need banning from the site altogether. :-X Quote

Better yet, send the two extra rods to me Enjoy in them in the New Year HAHA..you're not the only one to make that observation but the energy replaced my old crankin reel and I sold the wide spool to a friends granny for christmas. Simmonssportinggoods is a great store on ebay. The have some good deals and I hear that their customer service is good...although I have had to contact them. Quote
