Looks like you would be buying someone else's problems. Give them a miss as they may be expensive to fix.

I would agree. Some things are just not worth your time and money.

I agree with the two gentlemen, BUT, if those are your type of reels I would purchase them for parts. The price needs to be right though. If you don't need the headaches, just walk away.
