I've never personally used them but I've looked into the company and heard nothing but good things about them. For what it's worth I got my jdm reel from a site called digitaka.

They've been on my radar for years but because all I want are rods & jigs made of lead I've never built up the courage for fear of shipping costs. Some of the members from a jigging board I'm on have used them with no problems, legit source.

I have bought a number of rods from them over the years.  They all arrived well packed in PVC tubes.  No problems with them.
cheers

Used them several times, mostly for obscure Shimano parts.

They only ship every third day or something but service has always been good and the prices are nice.

The website is a bit clunky...
