You might want to check but the last time I was in Dublin I got that rod at 85 euros at Rory's. It's kinda far from where you are but not sure if they do post.

Yeah you will get it cheaper but once you take into account postage there won't be too much in it, I posted the link to tackle direct as it's in Cork and figured he'd be able to go there himself and have a look at it and not have to worry bout carriage :wink:

stick a post up in the buy/sell section. you might be surprised what you get offered. ive gotten a few rods/reels from there at bargain prices. i'd rather spend my €100 on something really good 2nd hand than something good new.
