Whenever the price goes above my limit I then hope that its gone to a TFF'er, so well done Wal
Thanks Richard and yes mate I'll let you know what its like when it gets here..

Well the rod arrived today and it is as described and I suppose it could be used straight away at a pinch but it will get a full rebuild so it matches my other one.
The tip could do with turning over or straightening, the ferrules are a bit slack so could do with being renewed and the rings will be getting replaced anyway as it has low "Bells Life" rings.
It will get high "Bells Life" rings when it is rebuilt as it will be getting used for float work and yes it will probably get a handle extension one way or another as it would be a wrist breaker if used for trotting as it is..
As for the seller, he did everything expected of him, the item matched the description (just) the rod arrived quickly and was very well packaged..That's 10/10 in my book..
Wal.
