The are (4) Shimano Tiagra 80W & (4) Shimano Tiagra 50W Two Speed Big Game Saltwater Fishing Reel & Rod Combo in excellent condition. I have sold my Bertram and don't need these anymore, bought less than two years ago, paid over $23,000.00 for the set of (4) 50 and (4) 80 Class. They are loaded with Suffix 80# & 50# high Vis line that was put on at the beginning of this past summer.
The rods were built custom at one of the best saltwater fishing tackle stores in the USA which is J&M Tackle in Orange Beach. They are black with gold weave and have Aftco roller guides (all guides). They also have Aftco Store-a-Butts which makes the rods and reels smaller (when broken down) for easier storage. Just the rod was over $1100.00 less than two years ago. This rods and reels are in excellent condition and have very minor scratches or imperfections. All rods have bent and curved butts. More information can be viewed at www.jmtackle.com
I'm a avid fisherman and will tell you that you would be hard pressed to find a nicer set up anywhere. This is one complete rod and reel set but I will sell individually! These are very lightly used rod and reels, fishing just a few Gulf Tournaments!

I didn't think he was being a dick, even if you paid $1100 for 8 rods and $500 each for 8 reels that only comes to $12,800, not $23,000. !!!

Guys, he's talking about 8 rods and reels, but I still can't come up with where he got the price. Maybe he mis-typed the 2 and it should be $13000.
4 J&M Custom 80 rods are about $800 and 80 wlrs are also $800. With line and sales tax, you're at $1800 each.
$1800 times 8 is $14,400 and the 50s are cheaper than the 80s.
$1000 to $1200 each would be a deal on "like new" combos.

| You need to load up and go to J&M and buy some rods! The rods with line, straight and cruved butts, stora-butts that is, custom made were over $11,000.00 then another $9,000.00 for the reels! I have a copy of the invoices and it adds up to be around $23k for everything including the covers and safety lines! Don't be an asshole and go buy some real equipment new and you will see what it cost! If everyone wants to be silly about this I will scan the invoices and put them on the site, I don't care just wanna sell the damn things!

I don't know who you're talking to, but if its me, you're barking up the wrong tree. I looked at your photos and you've got the standard off the shelf semi-custom rods they sell everyone. There are no Winthrop guides are special wraps so I'm not sure how you paid so much and believe me when I tell you I know exactly what these things cost. Anyway, you're coming off as a real jackass by posting that you've got 23k in 8 rods and reels that right now tonight list at J&M for $12,471.92. You could throw in a little extra for the storabutts and make it 13271.92 plus another $1000 in tax if you weren't having them shipped to Florida for free and saving the tax, but of course you'd have to discount a couple hundred on each of the 50s, but I digress.
For whatever its worth, good luck with the sale. If you have the time, post the invoices.

| I have no idea why in the world everyone wants to get worked up about the price or cost of a rod and reel, what the hell! The only reason I put them on the site I thought someone local could use them and would want to buy them. I have been doing business with the guys at J&M for years and my first cousin has worked in the store for years. Why in the world it is such an issue I don't know, I put what I thought the invoice amount was and again can pull it up or have him pull it, if someone is interested let me know and I will have J&M pull the invoice and fax them a copy! If you have no interest in purchasing why even comment! They were special made and ordered, those are the guides I wanted, the rap I wanted and they have the boat name in them. I watched the guys build them, some of you guys obviously need something to do instead of getting fired up about the price of some rod and reels! Be cool, get fired up about the economy, new president or something that is an issue.

| In Jimbo's defense, and, hopefully this will help, I sold the set to him and what's needed here is a little extra information. I can attest to the fact that those are not the off-the-shelf semi-custom rods. The rods you are referring to there are the Biscayne rods that come in 90% complete only needing the last coat of finish. However, Jimbo's set was indeed custom-wrapped by Lee Selman. The cosmetics do resemble those of the Biscayne's, but they are not. I could be wrong, but I also believe that these rods were made using Aftco Ball Bearing roller guides. Am I correct, Jimbo? You can tell if you look at the rollers themselves, there will be a little nylon case visible that contains the ball bearing. Also, I think we went with gold rollers, not silver, another little jump in price. And lastly, as he states, they are Store-a-butts, and the set I sold Jimbo had both curved and straight butts for each rod. Lastly, Jimbo, if I recall we billed you on that invoice for a couple of rods that were not part of the 8-rod set. Anyway, regardless of the original selling price, these are not ordinary, run-of-the-mill rods...there are some extras with them and they are 100% custom-built in Orange Beach, Alabama! Good luck, Jimbo! Edit: Jimbo, you might consider adding some photos of the rods themselves to give folks a better idea of the overall look--just a thought.
