I say part it out.  Here's a suggested breakdown.

Reel Seat by itself (AS-IS, For Parts)
Cross Bars & Top bar (Set)
Handle
Spool
Sideplates with screwset and bolt for handle.

You've got one bum part, if sell it as a set and IMHO you'll decrease the all-around value of the remaining parts.  

Did you know that you can order a Tiburon upgraded frame and spool for the 546?  

I don't think they're listed on the website but they're all over ebay:

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=tiburon+546&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313&_nkw=Newell+Tiburon+546&_sacat=0

My bet is that when you see pictures of the frames on ebay, you're going to keep your reel :)

Well Thanks anyway these are 546-4.6 and are quite wide.

yeah, i won't have one of those either.  i do have a narrow frame and spool for the 533.  not sure if it will fit to narrow down this reel.  would be cool if it worked, though. 
send me an email at alantani@yahoo.com for questions!

How much would you like for the pair, as is?  I may have a buyer.  Send me a PM.
I used to be in a constant state of improvement.  Now I'm in a constant state of renovation.

Apologies.  My inquiry about price was for Carl about the two reels.
