About half of them im selling for 5 , the most expensive will go for 20
Zebco 33 classic spincast reel (10$)

Unlabeled baitcaster, green handle knob(5)

Some old conventional reel, pretty small, has  really neat handle and 2 men fishing on a lake as the sideplate art, no model (5)
quality star drag spin casting reel(5)
I have a general idea as to how much some of them are worth but in reality , they only cost as much as your buyer is willing to pay, so i leave all the prices for best offer
I tried to round to the nearest 5 and calaculated the prices based on the lower 50% of ebay selling prices, shipping will be probably usps and depending on how mnay you buy the price will change , i have a paypal, and the is the expected way of paying

ill sell it cheaper than it goes on ebay, but if you do want me to list the price before you offer, than could u tell me which ones u want at least? (i bought the lot for 50 dollars, as long as i sell each real for 5 dollars im happy)

Thank's for your reply.
It's normal for sellers to state their prices when selling on these Forums,makes it easier for everyone.
I shall not be bidding on goods for sale here as shipping from the US to the UK is around $35 per reel. :'(
Good Luck with your sale.
You should have no trouble selling your reels on this Forum for $5 each.

Seeing you are trying to make $210 on a box of reels that no one wants that you paid $50 for. I'll buy the whole lot for the $50 that you gave for them and donate them to Harry K. Deal? I think that will make you even for that 6/0 that was generously donated to you.
Pay it Forward, that's what's its all about here. ;)
The 160 goes with the deal. ;D
true, i really dont have much use for these reels,  ive gotten a people wanting to buy some of the reels, and its true that its good to pass on good deeds,  but i was wondering, who is harry k deal? if i were to donate them how would they be used(i say this becuase 1/2 of them are so old i do not know if they would be fished( some of these reels are 60+ years old!))

Lets just say they would be put to good use. ;D Harry K is a retired Gentlemen that loves to work on old reels. He's a Great Guy and I want him to have them. There is no Deal, besides ours.
I'll even throw in two primo shark rigs.

Change of plan here. Mr pcde123 has agreed to my terms, but these reels are very old and Harry doesn't have the parts to fix them up. I will send him a Shark Rig anyway for his efforts.
So, just so everyone knows, the reels are still for sale! ;D
