Nah its not e_bay to blame as you had a choice to buy or not… from a seller.You thought i might do alright..but lost out.
Your not the only one who has gotten caught out by cheap stuff.
I bought some reels and rods and ended up giving them away without ever trying to fish with them.
The only bargains you’ll pick up is brand names at the right price..
With good seller feed back and full manufacturers warranty.
E_bay was good with variety upto a year ago buts its been going down hill with some really cheap stuff.
If any one is looking for a good spinning reel fairly smooth and cheap buy a eurostar event..not bad for a cheapie..E_Bay-wholesale fishing supplies..Its a silstar reel..one deep and shallow alloy spool..big drag washers.....size 2000,3000,4000,5000..
