I'm just happy to have an old friend back. We all wanted her back and were willing to pay the price. Ordered mine and waiting for it. Not that I needed it mind you I have 5 others with two new never used ones in the box.

The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the best of everything they have.

DUKE ! Long time no see. How's the desk job been suiting you ?

 

As for the 706 I've been saying this for as long as I can remember:

"Packed with Corrosion Block brand grease and spooled with 20# Fireline the 706 is one of the finest heavy duty surf reels you can own. As a first reel or as an upgrade it's a choice you'll never be disappointed in and even if you already own a Van Staal or ZeeBass you should always keep a 706 in your truck as a backup."

Now it's easy.

It would be wise for Penn to either not have parts available, or available at a huge price increase, to promote sales of new reels.

That wouldn't be wise it would be desperate, I think having parts available right away would lead to more interest. I can't see them selling very many of these reels especially at the price they are asking.

Why ? I sold a NIB 706z almost two years ago for $225. And what reel can you buy that's better for under $200 :huh:
