Reel Repair by Alan Tani

Thanks for your support
Im tempted to ring them but the time I spent cleaning this bad boy up Im happy to keep it
It's actually better condition than the hsc
On closer inspection in the picture the hsc is missing the locking plate and grub screw on the handle were as the one I have is complete
I might send them an email and have a winge

They advertised a 5600 c4 hsc
I stripped it down to clean and it's not hsc

They owe you at least a partial refund if you're going to keep it. Btw, I noticed the one you got has gold finished hardware.

I can't help myself with bling
Its smooth as silk with the cleanup and service
I will give them a ring later today and discuss it
there 2000 km away

Are you in Europe?

My 4600C4 is also blue and gold. It's a lovely color combo.

Yeah that price seems high. I have never seen a deal at a pawn shop. I sold a pristine abu 6500 C3 for 80 canadian not long ago. Shop around or ask here ...... sime great deals.

I feel like a goose
I contacted the the shop and explained the situation and they pointed out to me the different dealer 😩 when I initially found the picture of the hsc model on the net I clicked on the link which took me to the pawn broker site
The hsc model was from another pawn broker and for some reason known only to a computer and my eye sight when not wearing glasses I ended up at the pawn broker with the non hsc model
I am really happy with the reel that I got
Lessened learned
Don't rush into internet shopping for fishing reels 😇
