Ys Tom does have some but he's very covetous of them, i'm trying to find out is there anywhere this side of the pond so i dont have to pay those ridiculous charges. Not interested in a daiwa have me heart set on a avet i think they are a class reel but a little expensive to import.

more options here: http://get4it.co.uk/ebay_research/price ... query=avet

this one is from the states, new with blemishes, seems to happen frequently during engraving, sold a lot cheaper as a result: http://cgi.ebay.ie/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... SS:IE:1123
