I saw it too. I wouldn't pay $200 for a Quantum reel. IMO, they are horrible reels. For that same price, slightly more or cheaper, you could get a Curado, HSTA, REVO STX, or Pflueger Patriarch. Those are very good reels.

I don't understand all the hate on Quantum, thats all I use and have never had issues, guess some just have had bad experiences but not this guy.  The weight of that reel is ridiculous and if its anything like the Energy PT, I'll get one as well

The reel looks good and the is very light and even though I'm not in the market I might have to have one for next season. No problems with any of my other quantum reels either.

I have no problems with Quantum reels, I currently have three but have had others with no problems at all.  For me, $200 is alot to spend on any reel, not just a Quantum.  they look really nice though, I'm glad black reels are coming more available.  The rod looks promising too and it's in a very affordable price range. 

I hate that cabelas says they have something in stock when they aren't available yet.  If you were to buy one you would get a back order notice until they have them available, they never tell you that they aren't available to the public yet.

Quantum makes quality reels  as the other companies do.
