I stumbled on what is described as a NIB President II 2860 DE, the largest of the President II spinning reel series. It's being shipped and should arrive in a few days. I'm not a huge fan of NIB reels because I hate to "break the seal" such as it is and start using them, but if there is sign that it was ever fished, I'm surely going to put it in rotation. Pics will follow once I receive it.
Ive seen plenty of listings thru the years on ebay, where seller says "new in box", but its obviosly been used....buyer beware

Oh yeah, and lots of "never or un used" with lots of nicks and scratches on the reel foot. :o ;)
Also "ready to fish" doesn't always mean same...
