baluga Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 For $119. Just ordered mine. There's a $20 off on $150 purchase so I ordered some Invizx. Quote
Super User Goose52 Posted December 30, 2011 Super User Posted December 30, 2011 I think they sold out fast - both the 1000 and 2500 that they had for $119 say this when you try to add them to your cart: Please review the error(s) highlighted below in red. The following item is out of stock and not available for purchase at this time:Item #: IK - 124748 | Shimano® Stradic® CI4 Spinning Reel | REEL MODEL: STCI42500F Ole' cheapo Goose would have grabbed one or two at this price!

baluga Posted December 30, 2011 Author Posted December 30, 2011 Wow, that was fast. It was a pretty good deal. I'm glad I jumped on it. You might want to try calling them since it just say's not available online. Quote
Super User NorcalBassin Posted December 30, 2011 Super User Posted December 30, 2011 Awesome deal that looks like it may have overwhelmed the site (now saying to call if you want to order). I tried to have TW price match it but they wanted to charge me Cabelas' shipping charges without honoring the Cabelas' $20 off $150 coupon and keeping the tax on the order despite me not having to pay taxes at Cabelas. Not real happy with TW at the moment. I could see making it "even" with the shipping but that's bush league to not honor the coupon and tax to truly make it "even." Quote
QUIENYO Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 The price is still good, you just need to call the order in.. She told me they were back ordered, but would still honor the advertised price over the phone. Quote

I think TW had it right and you were asking a lot of them. I wouldn't even expect them to price match it in the first place and you want them to use the same coupon as Cabela's? I think you need to listen to your self and put yourself in their position. If you live in California you obviously have to pay taxes since you both are located there. Quote
Super User Hooligan Posted December 30, 2011 Super User Posted December 30, 2011 8 CI4 2500 ordered. Should be good on spinning reels for a while... Quote

Super User Hooligan Posted December 30, 2011 Super User Posted December 30, 2011 Hooligan got 8, I thought I was nuts for having 6 curados HA! I've got 6, too. Of the old green monster 3.8:1. A dozen E7s, a dozen E5's... Throw in some Cores, Curado 51, Chronarch 51MGs, 101s. Add some Alphas, Sols, a couple Pixies here and there, top it with a few Zillions, and you get the idea that I have a few reels. (Keep in mind I have a set of gear in TX, one in CA, and one in my rig; almost all have spares here at home, as well....) I just really like the CI4 in the 2500 size, it's one of my standard spinning reels. I currently have 7, and another 10-12 reels that are older Stradics and Sustains; it's just time to upgrade some of them and at that price, how can I not. Quote
nwibass Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 Yeah, well then again im 16 and don't have a job. Lol. Wish I did so I could expand my arsenal Quote

If you live in California you obviously have to pay taxes since you both are located there. Why would you expect them not to price match??? That's their M.O. I've been ordering from them for years and the shipping addition is a new policy for them. Maybe if I hadn't been spoiled before it would be different. I've probably given them over $5k the past 3-4 years, so they've had plenty of my business. My point was that if you're going to guarantee lowest prices and price match to the point you add the other site's shipping but then won't honor their discounted offer... that is not an actual "price match." Here's the math: Cabelas: 2x $119.99 => 239.98 - $20 coupon for over $150 => $219.98 + 18.95 shipping => 238.93 TW: 2x $119.99 => 239.98 x 1.0775 tax => $258.58 + 18.95 shipping => 277.53 I had no problem at all until they wanted to add in the shipping charges using the reasoning it was a "true" price match when in reality it was not. They were "truly" nearly $40 more and $20 over without the shipping addition. Just keep the free shipping as with every other time I've ordered and I'm happy. That's all I'm sayin. Awesome deal by Cabelas and I'm more than happy to send some of my business to them... I just like to give TW first shot at my dollar. Quote

You're not doing them any favors, at that price they are loosing money. Quote
Packard Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 You're not doing them any favors, at that price they are loosing money. Exactly, TW obviously doesn't have to liquidate their Stradics like Cabela's. Cabela's must have ordered way too many or something along those lines. Quote
0119 Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 Shimano regulates the retail prices of their products and doesnt allow variance from suggested msrp normally. Makes me wonder if the CI4 is being phased out already for a mid year replacement. Very unlike Shimano but they are introducing the new monster Curado mid year so maybe there are some suprises coming. Quote

Super User J Francho Posted December 30, 2011 Super User Posted December 30, 2011 Yeah, spill the beans...new Speedmaster? Or DC model for US? Quote
0119 Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 Its bigger than the 300, similar to Daiwas big computer screened trolling reels in size. Marketed towards Musky, saltwater and swimbait fishermen. There have been threads about it. Due out after the new year. Quote
0119 Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 There are videos at tackletour and Larry Dahlbergs youtube channel. Definitely not bass gear. Just an unusual release date considering ICAST. I cant think of another reason any retailer would have nearly 100 bucks off a very popular model except a new versions release. Just like they did with the Curado, Citica, Stradic FI and Sustain.

JIGFISHERMAN. Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 Yeah, spill the beans...new Speedmaster? Or DC model for US? It's a reel being built to compete with the Revo Toro. Quote
