Tackle hoarders, what have you picked up lately???

[foakes]

One of my buyer/pickers who scours the state  at swap meets, estate, and yard sales brought me his monthly stash yesterday.

He knows what I like —- mostly vintage spinners from '70 to '90, glass rods, metal frames, etc.

He has brought me a load nearly every month for the last nearly 30 years.

I buy everything he brings —- regardless whether or not I need it.  Since he is doing all of the work.  Generally dirt cheap prices.

Generally, there are always a few gems and surprises included.

If you are selling the 500C, I may be interested if I can afford it.
