Hey Warren,

i was searching around yahoo for shimano reels and when i got to a japanese site i saw one and it looks good. So i was wanting to know what everyone thinks of them as a bream reel

Thanks:) :)

Are you looking at the one on fishnet? If so I'd reccomend bying something Local and readily available (for parts and such)

There were some dodgy biomasters being flogged via Bream Masters PM system, basically they buy them cheap overseas either through contacts or through ebay etc. and sell them online using websites.

Bottom line is they are gaffing you with the price, the back up on the product is non existent, and you could get one over here heaps cheaper than what they are being offered for if you do it yourself.

Buying local is the only way to go, otherwise buy direct from ebay etc and get it shipped over. No point paying some donk $60-$70 profit just to get one here for you.

We're selling stradic 1000's for $230 at the moment which is a much better way to go. It's not much over cost and the backup on parts etc. is worth the little bit extra !!!

Hey Warren,

On fishnet there was one advertised for $120. I'll prolly keep looking through ebay and the papers and such.

thanks
